Introduction
“I have never seen anything like it. Nor heard any noise to approximate the ceaseless, frantic, hysterical scream which met the Beatles when they took the stage after what seemed a hundred years of earlier acts. All very good, all marking time, because no one had come for anything other than the Beatles...
Then the theatre went wild. First aid men and police – men in the stalls, women mainly in the balcony – taut and anxious, patrolled the aisles, one to every three rows.
Many girls fainted. Thirty were gently carried out, protesting in their hysteria, forlorn and wretched in an unrequited love for four lads who might have lived next door.
The stalls were like a nightmare March Fair. No one could remain seated. Clutching each other, hurling jelly babies at the stage, beating their brows, the youth of Britain’s second city surrendered themselves totally.”
Derek Taylor (From his book “Fifty Years Adrift”

“i just visited abbey road. it was awesome, hanging out with a bunch of Beatles fans and crossing the road. On the way back, I picked up two Beatles shirts and a set of guitar picks from the Beatles coffee shop at the tube station st. john's wood.”

“There is nothing like listening to a Beatles song, almost anyone can pick a song by the Beatles they can relate to. Whether it's "You won't see me" or "Happiness is a warm gun" each song is almost like a personally message to someone. And their albums they truly changed the rules of album covers, they went from the standard album name and band name. To their favorite people on the cover, to them in animal costumes, to just a plain white cover with just their name on it. It's been about 20-30s since the Beatles broke up and they still remain as popular as ever! People of my generation are discovering the talent and legacy of the Beatles, and saying things how John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr created the best band ever! I could go on about how amazing the Beatles are,and the fact that you read this entire long comment is amazing. ( you just missed pigs fly!) But I think it's best to let you listen to their songs and find out for yourself.”
