Every time I hear a Beatles song from this period, it deepens my feelings that if it wasn't for the Beatles, no other British band would never have been heard of, can you imagine the Stones on the Ed Sullivan show first time without the Beatles already being there, it wouldn't have happened.
Like all the other events that happened in '64, it's history, & no wishing could change that, when the Stones came in '64, they were playing to a stadium of half the people, Dean Martin made his remark about them, they were considered as a joke, people loved Gerry & pacemakers & Dave Clark 5, about the Stones? it was a cult following, so if it wasn't for the Beatles? let's get real, & hear from people who were there at that time. |

The Beatles came to America ten weeks after JFK was assassinated . Accordingly , they replaced - in our nation's collective consciousness - what was ' stricken ' from us on that terrible day and made our great country young again ................. Bless John , Paul , George & Ringo .

I was there when Beatles broke in North America.I was 11 or so...and its really hard to say if teh British Invasion would not have happened Beatles or no Beatles.They certainly accelerated and were the driving force no doubt.But I think Brian was determined there would be a Stones and eventually they would have been heard from.But if Charlie doesnt quit his bank job?....well who knows??...This topic has been debated many times and regardless of how ya feel about The Beatles music...their place as "Coming First"...cant be denied..... |

a long time ago i decided i was going to be a rolling stones fan. i used to have this little radio shack tape recorder and i would listen to the greatest hits from them...i placed it under my pillow and they rocked me to sleep. i always had a herd time with the lady jane song tho...i couldn't figure it out for the life of me. i am not sure if my decision came naturally or whether i had to make it.
as i was driving down to washington the other week i had a chance to listen to the radio and the song 'help' came on and i was like this is actually a good tune. being older not i can relate to it more than when i was say 13...
and then the song 'tumbling dice' cam on and it was all over |

i've always been partial to the jewtles myself. here...you can see them in concert:
(l-r): hank greenberg, josh, max weinberg, hilel slovak and ed asner
they were popular in the sixties. they broke into slovakia in '64, where they appeared on national television for the first time singing songs like "till there was jew", i wanna be your manorah" and "this circumsized boy". things went well for them until josh's "bigger than moses" comments to a local reporter in '66. |

actually 'kids today' are more likely to be responding to parental input, be that either as a form of rebellion or of concentration. Alternatively, various cultural non-musical influences could lead them back to the stones.

I am so sick of hearing about the beatles and Ed Sullivan. I can't wait until all the baby boomers are gone so we can stop talking about Vietnam and the god damn beatles on Ed Sullivan. An almost totally worthless generation in my view. Self absorbed, arrogant, and wrong, even to this very day. Nothing more pathetic than men with gray hair who still think and act like they are 20 (unless they are touring with the Stones) |

Hey! I'm a member of this organization. And I can tell you firsthand that NO group has suffered more as a result of the warped boomer mentality than the APA. Once a proud professional and scientific organization, now a bunch of hippie retreads protesting the Iraq war because they think that "son of a bitch Nixon" is still in the white house and refuses to get us out of the war.
Well now we have all three legs of the stool, haven't we? The pillars, if you will, of baby boomer psychology 1) Beatlemania (every cultural phenomenon is some variation of beatle-mania 2) the Vietnam war (every military intervention is the Vietnam war) 3) Nixon and Watergate (every republican domestic scandal is watergate). Its sad, really. An empty - headed generation, that uses archetypes as a substitute for original thinking.

The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan was our first taste of Rock "N" Roll might be, do you honestly think that The Rolling Stones would break in America? get fucking real!!it would never have happened. this is 1964!!for Christ sakes. |

it isnt fair to compare a beatles song that came out in 1965 during their more poppy period to a stones song off of exile in 1972.
if you want to be realistic and fair then you would atleast have to compare tumbling dice to something off the white album or onward.
