Man, do I love that music! Almost garage-band like in it's purity. Their harmonies are immense...despite the shrieking teenies. They also seemed to be enjoying themselves.

The boys invade the United States . . . this is the full Ed Sullivan performance. George Harrison was two days shy of his 21st birthday. The boys look and sound nervous to me.

@Setanta,

Love it. timeless classics. To my ears, it still stands up the test of time as some of the best music I listen to (as is Norwegian Wood)

@Ragman,

Ï agree completely, and i'm a lover of symphonies and opera.

Other than being smart enough to make most of them love songs, i don't think they were hide-bound by any style.
