2025/05/04

Before the stadiums, the screaming fans, and the American invasion, there was a much shakier story. How the Beatles almost didn’t happen looks back at the uncertain early years — 1960 to 1963 — when the band nearly fell apart more than once.Through conversation and storytelling, we trace the small decisions, setbacks, and lucky turns that helped them keep going. It wasn’t destiny. It wasn’t smooth. But somehow, it worked.Beatles60https://beatles60.group/Synthesizing The

Getting on Ed Sullivan

2024/02/05

The Beatles got on the Ed Sullivan Show through the efforts of Peter Prichard, a London-based journalist and friend of Brian Epstein. Prichard, who had a connection with Ed Sullivan's talent scout Jack Babb, suggested to Epstein that he could get the Beatles on the show. Despite some initial doubts from Babb, Prichard persisted and arranged a meeting between Epstein and Sullivan. In November 1963, Epstein and Sullivan met at the Hotel Delmonico in New York, where they agreed to schedule the

1962 was clearly an important year for the Beatles. They got signed, finalized their line-up, and even released their first single. But it was still prologue. 1963 would be the year that UK Beatlemania would explode. The Beatles would tour, get significant radio and TV exposure, and reach #1 on the UK Singles Chart, EP Chart, and Album Chart. November would bring the Royal Command Performance, and they would soon be looking to 1964, Ed Sullivan, and Worldwide

In this episode we talk about some of the confident eccentrics who influenced the Beatles, fellow travelers who marched to the beats of different drummers. The Beatles were quite busy in the winter of 1962/63, as we’ve talked about before. A Pair of two-week stints in Hamburg, radio and television appearances, recording sessions, ‘Love Me Do’ rising in the charts. And as the winter turned into the Big Freeze, called the worst winter weather since 1739, there was more than just the beginnings of

Hustling for national visibility

Beatles60 ·

2022/10/30

At the end of 1962 we look ahead to an historic winter freeze that immobilized most Britons for three months. But it was a great time to be the Beatles. ‘Love Me Do’ had been released on 5 October 1962. It had quite a ride on the UK Singles Chart, moving up and down and ultimately topping out at #17. The impressive fact about the Beatles’ first release was that it remained on the charts for 18 weeks. That was longer than most top ten or even top five singles stayed on. During those eighteen weeks,

Before the Beatles' rise to national and then international fame, just how cool was the UK? There was The Goon Show, Hammer Horror, and others (tell us what you remember!). But did it come close to reaching the level of cool in the US? Didn’t the cooler UK musicians strive to be more like American artists? Weren’t the coolest of films and their stars coming mainly from the US? What could make that change? 'Love Me Do,' the Beatles’ first single, was released on 5 October 1962. Interestingly, Dr. No,

It’s September 1962. Ringo had been put in place as the final member in the Beatles’ lineup. Recording sessions had been done and the first single had been chosen. Before long, George Martin was to become very happy with the progress made by his funny-named band from the north. Welcome to Season 2, Episode 1 of the Beatles60 Podcast. In this episode we talk about the convoluted path ‘Love Me Do’ followed to become the first Beatles single to be released (5 October). It wasn't without drama, so we
