@earlsworld70117 lol....calling the Beatles a "Boy Band" is like calling Mozart "some guy that plays the piano"

At 1:20 somebody's waving an "England, Get Out of Ireland" sign; at around 1:52 Phil Spector is seen in the upper right hand corner. He was on the flight too...

It's long been my belief that they were just the salve that this country needed, after JFK's assassination.

@lilginger8642010 "I Want to Hold Your Hand" had been #1 since 12/31/63 in NY. And there was increasing media coverage leading up to 2/7/64, on radio, in magazines, and on TV.

In other words, they didn't arrive in a great void of not knowing.
