Von Bontee on Why was Capitol allowed to release Beatles records in early 1964 if Vee Jay had the rights?

I'm a bit of a Billboard record-charts geek, and for years I found it inexplicable that The Early Beatles only made it as high as #43 on the pop albums chart, when every one of the dozen-or-so Beatles albums Capitol released between 1964-66 hit #2 or higher. Eventually I learned that all of its material had already been released on Vee-Jay's Introducing The Beatles, which I never even knew existed, and which itself peaked at #2. Then it made sense.
