On Feb 9, 1964m as one person said, the world went from Black and White to Color, as the world saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show for the first time.

QuoteE Street band member Steven Van Zandt said, "On February 8th, there were no bands in America. On February 10th, everybody had a band in their garage."
What would the world have been without the Beatles? Still, to this day, 60 years later, their legacy will always be here.
Remember 60 years ago
And fast forward to maybe their last appearance ever together
And everything that was in between, thank you, lads.
Their first song on Ed Sullivan.
As a kid, I sat in front of a big console TV with a 20" screen that was more brown and white than black and white. We got one channel...channel 12 WBNG (CBS). We could get channel 34 and 40 if someone wanted to go on the roof and turn the antenna, but even then, those were filled with static and hard to see and hear. So of course I watched CBS and Ed Sullivan as nothing else was available to watch on Sunday night at 8:00. So I saw the Beatles...and the Who, Hermans Hermits, the Supremes, The Jackson Five, Mamas and Papas, etc
Seems like only yesterday, sometimes
