Revolver is seventh album by the English rock band The Beatles, released on 5 August 1966. The album showcased a number of new stylistic developments which would become more pronounced on later albums. Many of the tracks on Revolver are marked by an electric guitar-rock sound, in contrast with their previous, folk-rock inspired Rubber Soul. It reached #1 in the UK chart for 7 weeks and #1 on the U.S. chart for 6 weeks.

Revolver was released before the Beatles stopped touring, and some people were disappointed that, during that tour, the Beatles did not perform songs from that album.Template:Fact Their reasoning for this was that people were not listening to their music but screamed too much for anyone to hear, so The Beatles felt that performing was not worth it. The newest song the Beatles performed on their 1966 tours was "Paperback Writer", released on a single and recorded at the same time as the Revolver album.
