Beatles for Sale
"No Reply" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1964 album "Beatles for Sale". In North America, it was issued on Capitol Records' variant on the British release, "Beatles '65". The song was written mainly by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney. Lennon originally gave the song to another artist managed by Brian Epstein, Tommy Quickly, in June 1964, but Quickly decided not to use it. The Beatles recorded the track in London soon after returning from their first full tour of the United States. The lyrics typify Lennon's more introspective and mature songwriting on the "Beatles for Sale" album.
