I saw The Beatles perform on the Ed Sullivan Show on Sunday, February 9th, 1964 when I was 12 years old. When they sang "I Want to Hold Your Hand," I fell in love with them and knew that I was witnessing history being made. They have been a part of my life ever since and at the age of 72, I still consider myself a fan.

You folk's need to do a bit more study on 'The Beatles' there should be enough real information out there to find out more fact's. The only real fact we all need to embrace, is our love for 'The Beatles'. I don't really need to know how many album's they sold, or where, I know I have all their record's, Their UK EMI parlophone recording's, I also have the Purple/dark blue, boxed set, I also have them in CD format, plus both the BBC collection's. The full CD Anthogy sets, and DVD video Anthology set. The Polydor Recording's recorded in Germany with Tony Sheridan, as the 'Beat Brothers'. I have the 'Live at The Hollywood Bowl' recordings, 1965/1966. I also have 'Live At The Star Club' in Hamburg, Germany. I have the 'Beatles' Live in Adelaide in June 1964, with Jimmy Nichol on drums, and live in Melbourne with Ringo Starr, after he had his tonsils out. I have many 'Bootleg' recording's of the 'Beatles' playing live in various location's across the world. These days there is a lot of remastered recording's coming out, that make the performance sound better. I also have a lot of DVD video footage, of The Beatles playing live, and their individual career's , after their split. I'm lucky to have all these, I'm lucky to have lived through their time, and experienced the influence they had on our existence and the world.

They worked their butts off in Hamburg so when they returned back home they were really tight but their real strength was in their songs Paul and John wrote some exceptional songs. either together or individually. George didn't get a chance to have his songs included but just look at what he released after they split. Even nowadays in 2024 young musicians compare their work to the Beatles sixty years later.

There is mystery and serendipity involved in the formation of this foursome. In December of 1963, nobody had heard of them. On February 9th, two months later, 73 million viewers watched them on the Ed Sullivan show. From that point on, they were the musical vanguard of the sixties. They influenced music, fashion, attitudes and counterculture. Never before or since has there been a group to have such an impact on society worldwide.

Their fame, screaming hysterical girls, record sales and musicaal accomplishments predate Ed Sullivan Show. If as you wrote 'no one had ever heard of them' before the 1964 Ed Sullivan Show! Then why did they leave the airport and go straight to the Top Spot TV 1964 Ed Sullivan Show? Why would four unheard of nobodys be presented to those 73 million viewers. Was Ed Sullivan playing roulette and taking pot luck with a 36 to one chance against the four nobodys having even a minimum entertainment ability to please '73 million viewers'. Of course he wasn't. He knew of them. He was a top USA act and would not be risking his popularity on a long shot due to four newbi nobodys phoning him up saying they were coming over to his live show with drums and guitars from England. LOL. They were booked in to the 1964 Ed Sullivan Show in advance. Not because they were never heard of before but due to their existing success.

The term "Beatlemania" had already been coined by the time they arrived in America. They were immensely popular in Britain and Europe and already had a string of hits. Maybe most Americans had never heard of them, but you must remember, America is NOT the whole world, and other countries DO exist outside of the States, despite what was drummed into you at school. America did NOT discover the Beatles.

Good documentary, but I totally disagree with the statement that Let It Be was a disappointing album! Like everything made by this top class group, Lei It Be is full of gems and creativity. I mention only Lennon's "Across the Universe" (a true masterpiece) but there are many other great tracks on Let It Be. The only flaw from my point of view is Phil Spector's production that does not fit the sound of this unique and immortal band for anyone who really loves the art of music.

This is just a general comment based on the information being somewhat inaccurate. One person said "does it really matter?" "this is 'You Tube'! It kinda doesn't matter in part, because of all the lies that are spread about by the (PID) lie's and stories that continue to surface. What the reader's need to realise, is! These people are not 'Beatle' fans, not now or ever have been, they don't like the 'Beatles' and never have liked the 'Beatles', this is what we fan's need to take on board and realise that these people are a bunch of stirrer's, who for some personal reason of their own, want to keep their finger on the button that has the word (lie) on it, and will go the extra distance to cause and have a negative argument with 'Beatle' Fan's. It is best to ignor them completely, and don't get dragged into their STIR, they will tell all matter of story and lie, to try to prove they know what they're talking about. This information here, written about all these fact's being wrong, and adding their answer in return to the fact's being wrong, isn't worth the effort, and isn't worth the anxiety that goes along with it. We 'Beatle' fans have good and great positive feelings for 'The Beatles', and our time spent following them, listening to their music, going to their concert's when they did back in the day, we bought their records, and any magazine that may have displayed photo's and articles about them. It lasted but a short time, 1963 to 1966, then they stopped touring all together, because people had gotten out of control with the mania madness that surrounded them. People went to concert's to.see them, or catch a glimpse of them, no one was listening to them, it wasn't about their music, that had gone out the window, they couldn't hear themselves playing or singing, all they could hear was people screaming their lung's out, Journo's taking photos, unintelligent question's being asked of them, just a lot of stupidity and mayhem. George Harrison remembers of his time with the Beatlemania, was being chased, his clothes being ripped and torn, his hair being ripped out by the hand full's, being pushed and shoved over, and being trampled on, and ending up requiring medical treament for severe injuries he received from out of control Fan's, mainly all young wild girls. George hated it, (noted in his book 'I Me Mine' ) he wanted it to stop, so midway through the 'Beatles' 1966 American concert tour, they decided enough was enough, it was over, and Brian was told by 'The Beatles' that they had had enough and wanted to stop being a touring band. Brian Probably had no final say in the decision, in fact George wanted out of 'The Beatles' all together he was done, tired, disappointed in how it had all turned out. John was also fed up, Paul was contented to carry on, he got off on the screaming and carry on, sadly he was out numbered. They did reach an agreement to become a studio recording band, but took a year or so off, to refuel, recharge, reflect on what they had done, but with a more mature approach to music. They are the greatest band there ever was.

The documentation is very disappointing! Where you state, "In the beginning Paul McCartney sung backup vocals". Ha, Ha That is not true! They all took lead vocals to different songs in Hamburg, Germany. And John Lennon was the lead guitarist? That not true! They have three guitarists in the very beginning. Pete Best and Stu Suticliff left temporary? No, they left for good. And they quit touring in 1966, not 1967. Sid Griffin spouting off Lennon songs to "Abbey Road". And "Golden Slumbers" is a Paul McCartney song, not a John Lennon song. And it didn't take around three years to put out the Album "Let It Be". The beginning of January of 1969 is when The Beatles started filming the "Get Back" or "Let It Be" Film. And the Album came out May 8, 1970. Sid Griffin saying that the Album "Let It Be" is a bad Album and it shouldn't be released! Because it didn't have a ton of good songs! "Get Back" was a #1 Hit, "Let It Be" was a #1 Hit and "The Long and Winding Road" was a #1 Hit. Plus, it had "Across the Universe", "Two OF Us"" and "I Got a Feeling". Disappointing documentation!

I also heard John Lennon say he asked Paul directly a couple days later.

The Beatle dynamic was easy to understand; with Lennon and McCartney in such close proximity they wrote their own and each other's songs as a single entity. When suddenly Yoko glued herself to John to the point of not literally allowing Lennon to be anywhere without her, the writing partnership of McLen died. Lennon became in effect a powerless puppet, and Paul was pushed away forever dooming the group.

Other "Amplified" documentaries are very insightful and full of interesting opinions and facts (the one on Bob Dylan is excellent!), this one is quite the opposite; tired "same old' with great inaccuracies ie: Shea Stadium did not sell out in a couple days, it took almost 7 weeks to sell all 55,000 seats. Why? Because in 1965 nobody had ever used a huge sports stadium for this kind of entertainment. They bad been booked into 1,000 seat max. theatres in England. In 1964 it was a great leap of imagination to find a venue as large as the Washington Colleseum (20,000 people- a boxing venue) for them and it took that first visit to America to show the money making potential of larger venues so when in 1965 "Bernstein Productions" gambled on a venue as big as Shea they held their breath for the over a month and a half that it took to sell all the tickets to a consumer that was unaccustomed to go to a baseball stadium to see a musical act. It was the first large Stadium concert and yet another paradigm shift that they were directly or indirectly responsible for. But this docu is uninterested in anything other than a well worn , pat general overview - drivel

The Beatles fused contemporary jazz and blues with the standardized major doo wop prevalent at the time. They used a free thinking "catchier'" flow to their songs and once they found the "nitch" sound, they macked it hard! 🤔

I was listening to the “Analogs” a tribute band from Denmark I believe? Regardless, they don’t go for the look, they go for the sound and are they great. Okay, not 100% as good as the Beatles played and sang but different. It’s to say that just because George Gershwin is gone, we can never have his music. I think the Beatles would have wanted their music to be played and tribute bands to improve.

Yes, indeed. The after-thought of getting Phil Spector to post-produce it, resulting in all those overblown, saccharine orchestrations was a mistake, of course, musically speaking. But as you say, it's crammed with good and great songs. I don't think the writers of this 'documentary' really have much knowledge of their subject since the whole thing is riddled with inaccuracies.

The Beatles were more prolific by a mile than any other artist. More variety, too. Harmonies second only to the Beach Boys. Much variety to Paul Macartney's voice. Not the most tuneful since Mozart. Most tuneful ever. In saying that, there are great songs that exceed the quality of the Beatles. They are just simply the best all round group ever.

Maybe get an actual music historian to write the next Beatles documentary? This one is riddled with small but irritating factual inaccuracies, as we find in so many attempts to map the life and times of the greatest band of the 20th century. With so much well researched material on them available, surely it shouldn't be so hard to get it right?

Unprecedented publicity, arranged fan mobs as Elvis used, and a topshelf stable of recording studio mules and composers. That answers the question in the title. Same formula used later in the USA in late 60s and 70s as with the wrecking crew.
