The British Invasion is an expansion that builds on the base game and introduces the Listening Booth and singles (45's). Historically, 45s were purchased to initially encourage buyers to purchase the accompanying LP album or even another album from the band. In British Invasion, players can acquire 45s by matching the band icon. Each 45 has an "A-side" with locked attributes that can be unlocked at the Listening Booth. At the Listening Booth, players discard a magazine card with one matching icon to flip the 45 to the "B side", granting the player more points and the chance to use the 45 to acquire LPs with similar properties in future rounds. British Invasion uses the same collectible rewards system (Pure, Mixed, Double Mixed) as the base game and further integrates with Top Shelf, Publisher Expansion, Clearance Bin or even Masters of Metal memorabilia!

To collect these 45s, players must take coins from their bag and select one of two slots to insert the coin. The player continues until the desired match is made or their slot(s) are full of coins. When 45s are acquired, they are placed in a 3x3 grid next to their player board. When three 45's form a row or column, it is scored. As the player's pocket empties, the player may empty their coin box and earn two bonus coins.
