60 Years Since The Beatles Performed on 'The Ed Sullivan Show'

All Of It - A podcast by WNYC

Categories:

Sixty years ago, The Beatles landed at JFK in preparation for their February 9 performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show," the band's debut in front of an American audience. Of course, we know the kind of Beatlemania that ensued after they played on televisions around the country. In commemoration of the anniversary, we speak with Kenneth Womack, professor of English and popular music at Monmouth University, and author of many books about The Beatles who also hosts a Beatles podcast, Everything Fab Four. Plus, we take your calls for those of you who witnessed the performance.
