60 years ago The Beatles set foot in America for the 1st time and set the record for a US TV audience
Hi Lenny,
Loved reading your article about the Beatles. Yes I was one of the millions who watch them 60 years ago on the Ed Sullivan show.
Unlike the many performers today, at least 60 years ago, You could actually understand what they were singing about.
Great post. Thanks for the memories.
Sandy,
Glad you enjoyed the article.
If you go back to that era, the “establishment” was definitely not exactly pro-Beatles (as you mention here). I believe even James Bond (Goldfinger) was less than complimentary to them. I guess they were more than a Fad Four.
Greg, Thanks for being such a loyal reader of The Sports Time Traveler. You comments are always interesting.
