1
00:00:04,044 --> 00:00:06,583
It's The Beatles!
2
00:00:06,607 --> 00:00:07,616
Thank you.
3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,364
Those guys are nothing but
a bunch of British Elvis Presleys.
4
00:00:10,376 --> 00:00:12,501
It's not true, it's not true.
5
00:00:14,767 --> 00:00:17,081
When The Beatles arrived,
from then on,
6
00:00:17,098 --> 00:00:19,199
a thousand different things arose.
7
00:00:21,677 --> 00:00:25,200
- It's sort of sexy.
- Yes, it's sexual, completely.
8
00:00:25,223 --> 00:00:27,841
♪ I burn you up. ♪
9
00:00:27,865 --> 00:00:32,087
There is a desire to get power
in order to use it for good.
10
00:00:32,110 --> 00:00:34,611
♪ How does it feel? ♪
11
00:00:34,627 --> 00:00:39,077

They could rule the world.

♪ She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah. ♪
13
00:01:38,900 --> 00:01:43,233
Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is Beatle Land,
formerly known as Britain,
14
00:01:43,256 --> 00:01:47,859
where an epidemic called Beatlemania
has seized the teenage population,
15
00:01:47,882 --> 00:01:50,083
especially female.
16
00:01:50,095 --> 00:01:52,202
CBS, they do a story on
what they probably think
17
00:01:52,226 --> 00:01:55,349
is a goofy band from England
that's doing quite well.
18
00:01:55,367 --> 00:01:58,144
These 4 boys from Liverpool,
with their dish-mop hairstyles,
19
00:01:58,167 --> 00:02:03,022
are Britain's latest musical and, in fact,
sociological phenomenon.
20
00:02:03,047 --> 00:02:05,971
They symbolize
the 20th century non-hero,
21
00:02:05,995 --> 00:02:11,883
as they make non-music,
wear not haircuts, give non-mercy.
22
00:02:11,900 --> 00:02:14,272
Meanwhile, yeah, yeah, yeah.
23
00:02:14,295 --> 00:02:17,595
This is Alexander Kendrick
in Beatle Land.
24
00:02:17,612 --> 00:02:21,640
Some little girl heard just a hint of
what The Beatles were about
25
00:02:21,657 --> 00:02:24,123
and starts calling her local deejay.
26
00:02:24,135 --> 00:02:29,145
The local deejay asks his friend
to bring over a Beatles record from England.
27
00:02:29,169 --> 00:02:34,041
And has the vision to put it on and hear
that there's something happening.
28
00:02:34,056 --> 00:02:38,025
So Marsha Albert of Dublin Drive,
Silver Spring
29
00:02:38,048 --> 00:02:41,338
has the honor of introducing
something brand new,
30
00:02:41,361 --> 00:02:42,676
an exclusive here at WWDC.
31
00:02:42,691 --> 00:02:45,672
Marsha, the microphone here on
The Carroll James Show is yours.
32
00:02:45,696 --> 00:02:49,038
Ladies and gentlemen,
for the first time on the air in the United States,
33
00:02:49,062 --> 00:02:51,533
here are The Beatles singing
"I Want to Hold Your Hand."
34
00:02:51,553 --> 00:02:58,507
♪ Oh, yeah, I'll tell you something
I think you'll understand. ♪
35
00:02:58,527 --> 00:03:00,851
That song really started to take off.
36
00:03:00,875 --> 00:03:04,669
It was impossible to anticipate
how much that momentum would continue.
37
00:03:04,692 --> 00:03:06,814
♪ I want to hold your hand. ♪
38
00:03:06,816 --> 00:03:10,800
Hi, everybody all over America.
This is the WABC Party Go Go. Whew!
39
00:03:10,824 --> 00:03:14,359
♪ I want to hold your hand. ♪
40
00:03:14,383 --> 00:03:16,990
That song is absolutely contagious.
41
00:03:17,013 --> 00:03:20,519
And I think the teenager found a voice.
42
00:03:22,215 --> 00:03:24,986
Here's what's happening, baby,
The Beatles!
43
00:03:25,010 --> 00:03:29,971
♪ I get high. Yeah, you... ♪
44
00:03:29,995 --> 00:03:33,283
There was a moment where you just heard,
this is our music now.
45
00:03:33,306 --> 00:03:35,467
It was like hearing the future.
46
00:03:35,490 --> 00:03:41,621
♪ I want to hold your hand. ♪
47
00:03:41,644 --> 00:03:44,404
I have to ask how you first
found out about them.
48
00:03:44,427 --> 00:03:48,168
Well, Sylvia and I first found out about
The Beatles at London Airport.
49
00:03:48,192 --> 00:03:50,814
There was an enormous crowd of kids
gathered around.
50
00:03:50,837 --> 00:03:53,560
When Sylvia and I asked them
what was going on,
51
00:03:53,583 --> 00:03:55,316
they said, The Beatles were here.
52
00:03:55,339 --> 00:03:58,735
We didn't even know who The Beatles were.
We'd never heard of them.
53
00:03:58,759 --> 00:04:02,025
And that night,
I booked Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney,
54
00:04:02,048 --> 00:04:08,326
George Harrison, and John Lennon
for 3 shows for $10,000.
55
00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:12,250
You know,
for 4 white guys who were British,
56
00:04:12,274 --> 00:04:15,910
to come out of nowhere and be everywhere
was quite unbelievable.
57
00:04:15,934 --> 00:04:18,884
The Beatles are a bunch of guys
from Liverpool.
58
00:04:18,908 --> 00:04:22,968
I mean, people in London
would have looked down at Liverpool back then.
59
00:04:22,992 --> 00:04:25,345
But Liverpool was a port town,
60
00:04:25,368 --> 00:04:29,856
and these port towns become places where
all sorts of contraband gets exchanged.
61
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,164
And one of them, at that point,
was great music.
62
00:04:33,187 --> 00:04:36,050
A lot of the sailors and people
that were coming back to America
63
00:04:36,073 --> 00:04:38,836
were bringing back these records.
And some were pop records.
64
00:04:38,859 --> 00:04:41,623
Some were called race records
because they were by black artists.
65
00:04:41,646 --> 00:04:48,266
♪ Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true?
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true? ♪
66
00:04:48,289 --> 00:04:51,729
The level of influence that
American rock 'n' roll,
67
00:04:51,753 --> 00:04:57,648
blues, country and western, Motown
had on those kids growing up in England
68
00:04:57,672 --> 00:04:59,498
was really amazing.
69
00:04:59,521 --> 00:05:01,928
♪ All of my love,
all of my kisses. ♪
70
00:05:01,952 --> 00:05:07,231
♪ You don't know what you've been missing.
Oh boy, when you're with me, oh boy. ♪
71
00:05:07,254 --> 00:05:11,348
So I would listen to Buddy Holly,
Gene Vincent, and Jerry Lee Lewis,
72
00:05:11,371 --> 00:05:13,855
Fats Domino,
all the great rock 'n' rollers.
73
00:05:13,879 --> 00:05:16,133
♪ Oh, Blueberry Hill... ♪
74
00:05:16,157 --> 00:05:18,286
It was like a new language for us.
75
00:05:18,298 --> 00:05:23,323
The power of the jukebox...
There's nothing quite like it.
76
00:05:24,214 --> 00:05:28,347
♪ My dream came true. ♪
77
00:05:28,369 --> 00:05:31,410
The Beatles took a bunch of those strains.
78
00:05:31,434 --> 00:05:35,263
The Everly Brothers from the '50s was a big
influence for them with the harmonies.
79
00:05:35,287 --> 00:05:43,941
♪ Wake up, little Suzy, wake up.
Wake up, little Suzy, wake up. ♪
80
00:05:43,958 --> 00:05:47,665
So The Beatles of Liverpool
are taking this pop sound,
81
00:05:47,689 --> 00:05:50,924
but putting their own spin on it.
82
00:05:52,054 --> 00:05:56,988
♪ Some other guy now,
has taken my love away from me. ♪
83
00:05:57,008 --> 00:05:59,081
♪ Oh, now... ♪
84
00:05:59,106 --> 00:06:02,875
What is the sound?
How does it differ from other rock 'n' roll?
85
00:06:02,899 --> 00:06:05,546
It just happened that, all of a sudden,
86
00:06:05,570 --> 00:06:09,364
hundreds of rock groups
all from Liverpool made records.
87
00:06:09,388 --> 00:06:13,621
And it was a bit more like
the original rock 'n' roll
88
00:06:13,645 --> 00:06:18,309
than the stuff they've had
over the last few months.
89
00:06:18,332 --> 00:06:23,290
Initially, there was no tradition of
great British bands conquering America.
90
00:06:23,314 --> 00:06:27,094
That had not happened.
But it's that moment where everything turns.
91
00:06:38,816 --> 00:06:42,198
There's no single moment
that more embodies the moment
92
00:06:42,221 --> 00:06:46,630
when rock 'n' roll became
the province of teenagers.
93
00:06:46,654 --> 00:06:49,177
That was something that
you would not just love,
94
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,336
but that you would go crazy for.
95
00:06:51,359 --> 00:06:53,027
There's The Beatles!
96
00:06:53,050 --> 00:06:59,341
♪ Can't buy me love, love.
Can't buy me love. ♪
97
00:06:59,365 --> 00:07:02,257
The Beatles have come to this country
and taken all our women away,
98
00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:04,956
and everybody's going crazy about them.
99
00:07:07,798 --> 00:07:09,494
It was like aliens landed.
100
00:07:09,518 --> 00:07:13,111
Look at how they look
and how they act and they... Wow!
101
00:07:13,134 --> 00:07:17,837
♪ I don't care too much for money.
Money can't buy me love. ♪
102
00:07:17,860 --> 00:07:20,502
We came here at 6:00 in the morning,
5:30 to see them.
103
00:07:20,526 --> 00:07:23,888
And all they do is push you
farther and farther away.
104
00:07:23,911 --> 00:07:25,990
And then they don't even
let you see them.
105
00:07:26,013 --> 00:07:29,363
I got every Beatle record at home.
And we didn't get to see them.
106
00:07:29,386 --> 00:07:33,660
What kind of police protection?
I'd like to get a piece of The Beatles!
107
00:07:33,683 --> 00:07:37,030
I don't know
why they got them out of here!
108
00:07:42,225 --> 00:07:48,650
Paul, Ringo, George, John.
109
00:07:48,674 --> 00:07:53,116
The reporters had the same attitude
that most adults in America had,
110
00:07:53,139 --> 00:07:55,438
which was no one took musicians seriously.
111
00:07:55,461 --> 00:07:57,855
They didn't understand anything
about youth culture.
112
00:07:57,873 --> 00:08:00,562
Would you cut that crap out?
113
00:08:00,580 --> 00:08:02,799
Cut that crap out!
114
00:08:04,442 --> 00:08:06,802
The press had gone into this
with the idea
115
00:08:06,825 --> 00:08:10,141
that this was a youthful novelty
that could be dismissed
116
00:08:10,165 --> 00:08:12,994
and maybe even deflated
in a press conference.
117
00:08:14,477 --> 00:08:17,633
- No, no, no.
- I had one yesterday.
118
00:08:18,981 --> 00:08:22,277
You guys are nothing but
a bunch of British Elvis Presleys.
119
00:08:22,298 --> 00:08:25,300
It's not true, it's not true.
120
00:08:27,332 --> 00:08:31,136
- Will you sing something?
- No, sorry.
121
00:08:33,551 --> 00:08:36,061
No, we need money first.
122
00:08:36,085 --> 00:08:38,569
When you saw them
sparring with the press,
123
00:08:38,592 --> 00:08:43,171
it was just another aspect of them
that made them even more unique.
124
00:08:43,194 --> 00:08:46,323
Tomorrow night at 7:00,
The Beatles read their own poetry
125
00:08:46,346 --> 00:08:50,378
on a documentary, Meet The Beatles.
126
00:08:50,401 --> 00:08:52,394
- Oh, really?
- I don't get that.
127
00:08:52,419 --> 00:08:55,894
If Elvis was the first wave
of mega-fandom,
128
00:08:55,906 --> 00:08:59,616
then The Beatles
sort of blew that out the water,
129
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,622
to the point where
even Elvis was losing sleep.
130
00:09:08,356 --> 00:09:12,383
The city never has witnessed the excitement
stirred by these youngsters from Liverpool.
131
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,359
Ladies and gentlemen, The Beatles!
132
00:09:22,829 --> 00:09:26,622

♪ You know what I mean.
And the way she looked... ♪
135
00:09:40,196 --> 00:09:43,834

their completely infectious pop songs,
137
00:09:47,145 --> 00:09:50,329
with their, whew! Their everything.
138
00:09:50,353 --> 00:09:54,086
It was just impossible
not to fall in love with them.
139
00:09:54,110 --> 00:09:56,234
As soon as they started playing on
The Ed Sullivan Show,
140
00:09:56,257 --> 00:10:01,071
we all knew they're playing live,
because that doesn't sound like the record.
141
00:10:06,851 --> 00:10:10,009
The idea of driving, swinging, R&B
142
00:10:10,033 --> 00:10:14,229
mixed with imaginative wordplay
and lyrics and harmonies
143
00:10:14,253 --> 00:10:17,979
and the perfect 3-minute record...
They defined it.
144
00:10:22,537 --> 00:10:26,595
The Beatles took this dream
of what America represented,
145
00:10:26,609 --> 00:10:30,915
the freedom that was in American music.
And they brought it back to us
146
00:10:30,938 --> 00:10:34,178
with an excitement and a ferocity
that we didn't have.
147
00:10:34,190 --> 00:10:36,538
And with longer hair.
148
00:10:40,924 --> 00:10:45,841
73 million people watched that night.

♪ Since I saw her standing there. ♪
150
00:10:52,900 --> 00:10:56,970
When The Beatles did the Sullivan Show,
everything at the radio station changed.
151
00:10:56,993 --> 00:11:00,229
There were no more requests
other than The Beatles.
152
00:11:02,976 --> 00:11:06,020
Looking back,
I believe without Ed Sullivan,
153
00:11:06,043 --> 00:11:09,114
there wouldn't have been
a British Invasion.
154
00:11:13,825 --> 00:11:16,737
Gerry and the Pacemakers!
155
00:11:24,764 --> 00:11:28,332
It wasn't just The Beatles.
The British Invasion had legs
156
00:11:28,355 --> 00:11:32,559
because there was
more great music to back it up.
157
00:11:32,582 --> 00:11:34,860
A big hello. I'm Mike.

- I'm Dave.
160
00:11:40,231 --> 00:11:44,973
For the first 6 months they were singing,
they sold over a million records a month.

Well, because we were a bunch of animals.

It was great because you're seeing
a seasoned professional with James Brown,

It is the most perfect
representation of 1964 Beatles.
352
00:23:58,139 --> 00:24:02,669
Brian Epstein said, "If The Beatles
were going to go, they were going to go big."
353
00:24:02,682 --> 00:24:03,985

exposed them to the public even more
356
00:24:11,651 --> 00:24:15,044
than perhaps
just a pop singing idol would.
357
00:24:15,831 --> 00:24:19,095
They made the announcement that
they were going to tour America.
358
00:24:19,905 --> 00:24:22,834
The Beatles wanted $25,000.
359
00:24:22,858 --> 00:24:25,334
Well, I didn't have $25,000.
360
00:24:25,358 --> 00:24:29,034
So I borrowed $25,000 on the house.

Inflatable Beatles.

375
00:25:30,716 --> 00:25:33,322

I live in the projects in Brooklyn,
you know, in a black community

this was a white phenomenon.

They were everywhere.
383
00:25:54,431 --> 00:25:56,601
The Beatles created a rock industry.

They were selling in ways that
no one had ever sold before

they did tons of covers

It wasn't until they really figured out
how to write their own songs

508
00:35:10,221 --> 00:35:13,910

some covers of
some other artists' songs,
513

and just a bunch of filler.
514
00:35:38,409 --> 00:35:43,399
Rubber Soul basically started the idea
of the record as a complete statement.
515
00:35:43,423 --> 00:35:46,194

that was happening.

When The Beach Boys heard Rubber Soul,
523
00:36:16,278 --> 00:36:20,108
Brian Wilson was inspired
to try to create something
524
00:36:20,130 --> 00:36:22,462
as pure and beautiful as in this album,
525
00:36:22,482 --> 00:36:24,513
and everything was great.
526
00:36:25,727 --> 00:36:28,334
I remember going over to Brian's house
527
00:36:28,357 --> 00:36:30,903
and I looked into the
living room and I saw that
528
00:36:30,915 --> 00:36:34,478
everything had been taken out,
except the piano.
529
00:36:34,501 --> 00:36:38,086
And the living room was
completely filled with sand.
530
00:36:41,044 --> 00:36:44,382
He said, "I'm going to write
the greatest album ever recorded."
531
00:36:54,772 --> 00:36:56,369
Let's go. It's getting late.
532

Nice. Nice one.
533
00:37:09,925 --> 00:37:13,990
In the mid 60s, you see Brian Wilson
retreating into the studio.
534
00:37:14,013 --> 00:37:18,068
And he is concentrating on writing
and producing these amazing songs.

537
00:37:26,049 --> 00:37:28,150
The recording studio had been a rigid place
538
00:37:28,172 --> 00:37:32,254
where there were engineers
literally in like suits, and ties, and lab coats,
539
00:37:32,271 --> 00:37:35,602
when all of a sudden,
there were these crazy young geniuses
540
00:37:35,627 --> 00:37:39,518
who reinvented the studio
as an instrument to be played with.
541

♪ God only knows
what I'd be without you. ♪

Technology is evolving for how to record,
543
00:37:48,309 --> 00:37:51,550

on the cutting edge of that.

♪ Wouldn't it be nice if we were older,
then we wouldn't have to wait so long. ♪
545

Music in the 60s was like
any great art movement.
546
00:38:02,382 --> 00:38:06,247
The greatest practitioners of it
pushed one another to be better.
547
00:38:06,270 --> 00:38:09,851
Love the mic on the piano.
Quite low tone.
548
00:38:09,875 --> 00:38:13,103
In the studio,
The Beatles' natural creativity
549
00:38:13,127 --> 00:38:14,970
was sort of brimming over
550
00:38:14,993 --> 00:38:18,326
and George Martin was
a brilliant collaborator
551
00:38:18,350 --> 00:38:20,123
and champion of that.
552
00:38:20,146 --> 00:38:22,260
Run back the tape, please, would you?
553
00:38:22,283 --> 00:38:25,148
You can slow down
or speed up in the tape.
554
00:38:25,166 --> 00:38:28,184
You can put in backward stuff.
You can put in electronic sounds
555
00:38:28,208 --> 00:38:30,037
which you couldn't possibly
produce live.
556
00:38:30,060 --> 00:38:32,268
Something happens on the air.
I couldn't tell you what,
557
00:38:32,291 --> 00:38:35,426
'cause we have a special man
who sits here and goes like this.
558
00:38:35,450 --> 00:38:39,628
And the guitar turns into a piano
or something like that.
559
00:38:39,652 --> 00:38:41,791
And then you may say,
"Why don't you use the piano?"
560
00:38:41,815 --> 00:38:43,846
Because the piano
sounds like a guitar.

♪ We're Sgt. Pepper's
Lonely Hearts Club Band. ♪

over and over for the first
3 or 4 days when it came out.

You'd drop the needle on it
and you'd hear a little crackle,
568
00:39:06,345 --> 00:39:11,182

taken away on this journey.

It sounded unlike anything
we were used to.
572
00:39:27,369 --> 00:39:31,538
In the 60s,
lyrics are generally infantile
573
00:39:31,553 --> 00:39:34,206
and its noise, not music.
574
00:39:34,229 --> 00:39:37,564
but the Sgt. Pepper album
was brilliant album
575
00:39:37,587 --> 00:39:42,594
