It was 61 years ago today...


You are part of a select group of music fans to perhaps see on television, read the newspaper or maybe even be there to experience arguably a HUGE moment in music history.

I was only 2, so all I cared about was eating and sleeping. Maybe I was in the room while my family watched the Ed Sullivan show, later that week?

On this day in history, Feb. 7, 1964, Beatles arrive in US for first time, inspire nationwide mania (yahoo.com)

*sigh*  They had haircuts...that's why they looked like That.....

I wasn't all that impressed until much later, the earlier music still struck me as a variant of the 'bubblegum' muzic played by various groups....

I originally was more attracted to 'jazz' of various stripes...Brubeck, Szabo, Dizzy, others...  'Rubber Soul' and later MoTown changed my focus, later Zappa, Fugs, Airplane, and all that ...

We is what we was... ;)  And later, more.....*G*
