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)

I was 12. A memory burned into my consciousness and subconscious.

Was already aware of the Beatles. So, this was anxiously anticipated.

Laying on my parents bed watching their TV. Enthralled by every moment.

This moment in time lay the course of a lifetime of being a die hard fan boy unlike any other Pop culture heroes. And another memorable moment was when the White Album came out three years later. If only I still had that first pressing!
