ROCKOLLECTIONS: THE BRITISH INVASION PT.1
On Feb. 7th 1964, the Beatles arrived at Kennedy Airport here in New York, marking the beginning of Beatlemania and The British Invasion.
Also making a whole lot of people feel very old this week, lol!
As it happened, I didn't like their first single but I did like the flip side.
And I never suspected that these 4 guys would be responsible for my lifelong love of Music!
Without the Beatles, I don't get nearly as deep into the Music as I have- Music before them, Music after them.
And of course, regarding that British Invasion, they weren't alone.
These Brit groups and artists had a fresh sound, giving a jolt to a too long stale and formulaic Rock & Roll scene here in the States.
It's a cliche, but you had to be there.
I invite you to join me for a listen to songs you will know, and some you may not, that after all these years hold up very well indeed!
