Sixty Years Ago Today: the Fab Four in 1964

It was a Sunday night, February 1964. With one big sweep of his arm, and the words, “Ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles!” Ed Sullivan launched the Fab Four, changing American and world culture forever. In two months, all to the tune of screaming teen-aged girls, the Beatles charted all five of the best-selling songs in the USA, and 14 out of the Top 100. In the next 12 months, they sold over 100 million records. Share this magical musical tour of memories of the Fab Four in the fab year, 1964, as we all believe in yesterday. We plan on an optional lunch out after the last class.
