CAN EVERYONE PLEASE HIT THAT LIKE BUTTON!!!!!!!

If you think about it, the World population in 1970 was 3.8 billion so the Beatles sold music too over 1/4 of the World. That is an out standing achievement for 4 people, it will never be equalled.

I watched the whole thing. I was one of the 73 Million who watched on Ed Sullivan that night. Almost 60 years later, I still have a Beatles haircut.

Not just the greatest band of all time but the greatest act of all time…simply put

The greatest part of The Beatles experience was being there as it unfolded in those 8 years. You can't really understand it fully like waiting for the next album to come out. Back then it was The Beatles and then everyone else. A similar experience was the Motown label. Every album was also anticipated, only with many groups, but very impactful.

No matter how much I know about The Beatles, I still get a kick out of shows like this…!!!! Thanks to you for having interest in The Beatles…!!!!

They were able to record 10 songs in one day because of all the live, non-stop, insanely paced, grueling practice they had gotten in Hamburg.

London 1969 I was 18 and was at the Beatles last gig ,, I was in the street below ,, brilliant memory.

Yep, I watched the entire reaction. I remember watching their legendary appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show when I was six years old! After that, you couldn't go anywhere without hearing a Beatle's song and their pictures were in every magazine marketed to kids. My favorite Beatles songs are "Yesterday", "Let It Be", "Something", "Hey Jude", "Here Comes the Sun", and "Come Together".

I am a first generation beatles fan and so impressed with your video. Thank you for appreciating their unbelievable talent which changed music history . I was an 11yr old and loved them and bought every single, album which I still have today. Best band ever, their songs have been with me on my journey of life .

Yes, if you take the Beatles sales, plus Paul McCartney's sales with his other groups and his solo work, he's the best-selling artist ever. And then you have all kinds of artists covering some of his songs like Yesterday and Blackbird. Last I checked, he's still touring. But not because he needs the money.

One of my clearest memories!! Every Sunday night, as a family, we watched the Ed Sullivan Show. The night of the history-making appearance by the Beatles will always be my musical introduction to this greatest of all bands. Have been a hard-core fan ever since. Enjoyed this immensely! Love from Canada 🇨🇦

This video should required viewing for all reactors. Bob Dylan is a great American singer\songwriter who was probably the most influential performer of his time.

The Beatles were the first band I saw live in July 1963 at the Winter Gardens, Margate, England.. I was 11 and I was never the same again after that night.

I'm so happy you got to learn more about the Beatles. I watched the entire reaction with you. I absolutely loved them, especially John! I was 13 when they made their 1st TV appearance in the US. I was at our evening church service & the priest let us leave early so we wouldn't miss anything! John was killed on my birthday, which haunts me every Dec. 8th!

Im proud to say that The Beatles were my first concert in 1966! Of course I was so far back that they looked like ants, and I couldn't hear them over the screaming, but I was there!. I love all of their albums but I'd have to say that Rubber Soul was my favorite. Thanks for reacting to this and learning more about them!

Good reaction fella,I’ll sub. I was 9yrs old in 1963 when The Beatles exploded into our lives here in Britain. They changed EVERYTHING. It was a black and white world pre-Beatles,then,glorious vivid colour. Everyone back then bought any new Beatles that was released without knowing anything on it. I don’t know anybody who doesn’t know at least one Fab Four song.

My first favorite band. I got my first Beatles album when i was 3. Meet The Beatles. My Mama said when the 5:11 y were on The Ed Sullivan Show, I stood an inch from the TV completely hypnotized. I was a year old. So i can confidently say I've loved them my whole life

I met two British sailors while in the navy on the Island of Malta that asked me for a fag. I was a bit thrown off until he told me a fag was a cigarette. We got to jawing and got on Beatles.They told me that they saw them when they were the Flying SILVER Beatles. I thought they were playing Me! Thanks, keep up the good work.

Rubber Soul was to me the best and first time anyone went this deep into their sound and music lyrics .

800 million was the number about 10 years ago. It's over a billion now.

Rubber Soul was my very first album. Beautiful!

I was 5 years old and we were at my father's friend's house and he made us sit and watch the Ed Sullivan show, and being 5 ,I wasn't into it but he said this was a big TO DO and we had to see it. I am so glad that happened because I can now say I saw them the 1st time on ED SULLIVAN show, momentous occasion.

Bob Dylan songs, “Like A Rolling Stone”, “Shelter from the Storm”, “Tangled Up in an Blues”, “Positively 4th street”, also, Bob Dylan was rip before rap. “It’s all right Ma I’m only bleeding”.

Being a teenybopper in the early 60s, I ingested everything I could about the Beatles so I knew then they had been the Silver Beetles. I wonder now how much $ I spent on teen magazines, Beatles bubble gum cards, etc. A friend of my mother who lived in San Francisco at the time even sent me newspaper articles about them. Just finished watching this. So great!

Yes, I watched until the very end and enjoyed every minute. I knew or had heard most of those stories but it was good to hear them again and to see your enjoyment of them. It was a great presentation (the film) and reaction (you). I was 5 years old when that first Beatles appearance happened on Ed Sullivan, in Feb 1964 - and I will never forget it, or the others that came after! Everything changed that night, even in the wide eyes of a 5 year old. I could spend the rest of the night listening to The Beatles now 😃

I love the Beatles so much since 1964 while watching Ed Sullivan. I have loved them ever since.

The Beatles' Anthology DVD release mentioned at the end of this video, featured 5 discs, each one about 2 1/2 hours long and is pretty in depth. It was an expanded release of a televised show on ABC TV. That week, they billed themselves as A-Beatles-C. This documentary was so great because it was presented by the Beatles themselves and featured music from the Beatles.

Bob Dylan.. Big artist in his own right.. Later on to team up with Harrison in a little super group called The Traveling Wilburies.

Watched it all of course.. Born in 1952, was more my older Brother that got me introduced to The Beatles, Rubber Soul or Revolver my favourite albums, and Eleanor Rigby probably my favourite track, but every time I play one of my albums, that changes, yes still have Vinyl albums.. Dylan and Donovan were on my list too as were the Stones... Thanks for reacting to this one

I’m so glad you played this! I grew up through most of this mayhem and it was fun to see it again. I remember collecting Beatles cards in bubble gum packages. I still love them to this day! Watched it all with you! My favorite album was The White Album.

What's up, ADogg? Nice to visit with you again! Yeah, I was just a kid on my bicycle, pedaling to the store & buying my first vinyl 45 rpm single records, when the Beatles started putting out records. We all right away knew they were something special, because not only did they sound really fresh & exciting, but also because the "B" side on each of their 45 rpm single records sounded GOOD (& not just throw-away crap, like the "B" side would on other artist's singles). Plus, the Beatle just kept CRANKING OUT good records! We couldn't believe it! We all started wearing our hair long too, and felt the Beatles represented us, the youth of the world!!

If you don't know who Bob Dylan is then you most definitely need to dig into his work. He's considered by many to be the greatest folk songwriter of all time. Especially his first 6 albums, they are priceless.

Best Albums of The Beatles: • Abbey Road • Revolver • Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band • Rubber Soul • The Beatles (White Album) Keep in mind, The Beatles started as a singles band with rare exceptions like the film soundtracks… • Hard Day’s Night • Help!

Love this! Thanks for introducing me to this "Brief History". So glad I watched all the way to the end!

Revolver is my favorite album, period ! Give it a listen Fantastic It has something for everyone

I liked your video.I am 68 and The Beatles have been with me all my life. They have taught me how to love, laugh, think, feel and love. but never have they taught me to hate.They taught a entire generation. Let them in to your life, you won't regret it.

66yrs old now. First saw them on The Ed Sullivan show in 1964.❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤The Beatles were paid a total of $10,000 for their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show on February 9, 1964. This was split equally among the four band members, so each of them received $2,500.🔴🟥🟠🟧🟡🟨🟢🟩🔵🟦🟣🟪🟤🟫⚫⬛

Marvelous reaction video. I’ve seen the video before but I like to see you reactors reacting! My favorite album? I honestly can’t decide. BTW Bob Dylan is considered to be the foremost songwriter in America, up there with Lennon/McCartney. He has great stuff (though his voice isn’t always the best:-) The Beatlemania stuff was absolutely wild, far beyond anything seen before it (and probably since). I actually remember the the album burning that went on back then; I thought it was ridiculous and didn’t pay much attention to it. Lennon’ s assassin was a fan who was angry about the ‘bigger than Jesus’ quote. At least that’s what he said at the time. More recently, he claims he did it for “fame.” George Harrison and his wife were attacked in their home in 1999 by a crazed man who attempted to murder them with a knife. It was a pretty harrowing experience and doctors said George was lucky not to have been killed. I could go on. There is so much information about the Beatles. I think there are over two thousand books written about them. My last observation is that hearing them for the first time was one of the most joyous experiences of my life. I don’t know why but I can still remember to this day where I was when I first heard them. Thanks for a thoughtful reaction.

The Beatles made so many firsts especially in how they recorded music and instruments used. Hard to believe they had basically ten years together. A rare moment in music history. 😊

I watched the entire video with you. Enjoyed it greatly. I grew up on the Beatles and there was a lot of stuff I learned from this that I didn't know before!

❤😊 Thank you for your reaction. The Beatles probably changed the course of history.

They were only together about 7 yrs but are the most successful group in history

Abby Road is my fav Beatles Album

Ringo briefly quit the band in ‘68, so Paul played the drums on Back in the U.S.S.R.

Saw your entire reaction Adogg, and 800 million and still selling!

In 1979, when I was 9, and lost my dad to a heart deformity, I clung to the Beatles for solice. I started with the VEEJAY album Introducing the Bealtes. Parlophone's Beatles Rock and Roll music, and The Beatles second album. Within a year I had baled so much hay for local farmers to save up, I had all the Beatles albums by that next Christmas. I didn't really care for any of the 80s music when I was a teen in the 80s, because I was in jazz band and playing sax and trumpet, listening to Chuck Mangione, Miles Davis, and Herb Alpert. The Beatles were about as popular as I got and they always stayed my favorite. Whatever song or album I just listened to is my fav, and that changes each time.

I was a teenager in the 60's, it was without a doubt the best decade ever for music, I was a huge Beatles fan and was sad when they broke up, and I will never forget how devastated l was when John Lennon was killed there has only been 3 times in my life when someone I didn't know personally has died and it's hit me really hard and felt like I've lost a member of my own family, the first being John Lennon the second George Michael and this year our Queen Elizabeth. I really enjoyed this video and realised there's an early album I didn't know about so I will be listening to that tomorrow.

I was a very impressional 10 year old in 1963, and have been a fan for 60yrs!!😂😂 Wow, time flies!!😕

I grew up, being 6 when the became a hit, loved them, feel really honoured to have them as the leading music in my life

Thanks so much for this. I find your comments always so thoughtful. I really enjoy watching your videos. I grew up with the Beatles having been born in 55. The first Beatles album that made its way to our small town in the Canadian Rockies was the soundtrack to ‘A Had Day’s Night’. My mom was a professional musician and she adored the Beatles and was ahead of her time. People talked about these weird British boys who had these crazy haircuts. And people talked about the fact that my mom bought that album lol. Small towns ha ha. Everybody had the flat top crew cuts in those days. I still remember looking at the cover of that album and thinking it was so cool, and different. I couldn’t possibly name a favourite Beatles album. Or a favourite Beatles song. They are next level, lightning in a bottle. I do remember feeling a thrill and shock at hearing the Revolver track, Tomorrow Never Knows. And then I couldn’t stop playing it. For people who don’t know the Beatles, I often recommend the famous medley on the B-side of Abbey Road which does indeed end with The End, the last music they recorded together. That medley of short song pieces really gives the listener a good idea of their incredible range. The Beatles could, and did, do anything. I loved the fact that they wrote little novels in there music. They wrote about characters. Eleanor Rigby, Maxwell, mean Mr. mustard, polythene Pam, etc. etc. They told stories. They are simply the greatest of all time.

Bob Dylan was huge and also was in the band with George Harrison called the Wilburys. He's got one of those voices that you recognize instantly that it's him.

Watched it. Saw them on Ed Sullivan. I was nine. Changed my life.

The Beatles have a great back story

Still the top selling musicians of all time.

I watched the whole thing with you! I want to thank you for helping keep the Beatles alive in hearts and minds. They are so positive and everyone can use more positivity! Keep up the good work and interesting content. ✌️❤️

They were not only known as "Johnny and the Moondogs"... they were also the Nerk Twins, the Ravens, and Japage 3. Another name they went by during the "Silver" period, was "Long John and the Silvermen", which John denied, but Paul said he loved being called Long John. There were also several members not mentioned in the video, including Thomas Moore, their first post-Quarrymen drummer, who was about 15 years older than the others and quit the band suddenly after their tour of Scotland, to get his factory job back to impress his girlfriend.

60 years ago they arrived in America, and shook up the world

Bob Dylan is a poet who sings. He still performs today

You ask which is my favourite Beatles album.... simple.. just the one that has "The Beatles" on it .... oh, my ! That'd be all of them !! I was 16 in 1963 and witnessed it, and lived it, and loved it all.

Adogg I made it to the end of the video. I've been a Beatle fan forever and I learned a few new things about them watching this video! Thanks for the reaction. Love your videos!!

Watched the whole thing. Thanks for doing this. They were, simply, part of us while we grew up with them.

THE BEATLES, the greatest band that ever was and ever will be....period!

Favorite early album Meet The Beatles. Favorite later album Abbey Road

This was great to watch ! I knew everything noted, but I really enjoyed your commentary. Thanks !

McCartney is a natural songwriter: he's one of those very rare people that could simply look at something, and come up with a line for a song. When you consider just how many "one-hit wonder" bands have come and gone over the decades, you know that's a very special trait, and he continues to this day. I should mention, if nobody else did, they remained friends after the breakup, and worked on each others solo projects. And, just wait until you research Jimi Hendrix's work, if you haven't yet, as well as Bob Dylan.

I have been a fan since I was 9 (1979). I knew all of this. Still listen to the Beatles almost every day. My favorite album/song is the one I am listen to at the time.

Thank you for sharing this. The Beatles are my favorite band of all time.I just love them all. John and Paul are my favorites.

Apple began quite well with James Taylor as its first recording artist.

I was one of those 73,000,000 people that seen them live in the Ed Sullivan Show

Great overview of the group.. John Lennon's murder was traumatic for a lot of people and sent shock waves over the world. The official video of his song 'God' will give you an idea of the impact his loss was. Great reaction man.

Best album. Sgt. Pepper. Still to this day. A Classic. Other bands at the time couldn’t believe it. It was that good

My favorite Beatles album is Revolver. Nonstop amazing and timeless!

Hey Adogg, made it all the way to the end and it was a pleasure to watch, so thanks for posting it!

The Anthology documentary is excellent and well worth a watch!

I think the fellow doing the narration of the Beatles history neglected to mention the fact that while in Hamburg, Ringo Starr stood in as drummer for the Beatles when Pete Best took nights off. This was super critical in how things turned out. John, Paul and George were highly impressed with Ringo's tight drumming during those early Hamburg days. That's why when Pete Best was fired, Ringo was the first one they wanted and 'eureka', he agreed and they went on to,...well you know the rest.

I grew up with the Beatles, pretty much as it was happening -- born October 1, 1963. I inherited all my older brothers and sisters Beatle albums and was heavily into my fandom by the end of the decade. But my favorite Beatles albums were those from the early stages, as those were the 1st albums I listened to as a young tike. So, my favorite album is probably "Meet The Beatles" (MTB), which is the U.S. release-version of "With The Beatles", released in the U.K. I just have the best memories of discovering them through that album (and through the "Something New" and "The Beatles Story" records, as well). MTB started with "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" and went straight into "I Saw Her Standing There", which was a legendary one-two punch of Rock/Pop awesomeness! From there I was hooked! Every song on that album is great (even deep cuts like "Hold Me Tight")! I love the guitar & drums-driven songs of those early years but I also became a fan of their more experimental music, from 1966 onwards, after I grew up and my tastes matured. The Beatles are truly Legend!

Yep, watched all the way through. It was fascinating and I loved your comments. Spot-on. I knew much of that but not all of it and it just helps to have it assembled all together in one chunk as a summary. For example, I have that Beatles Anthology and I believe it's like a seven or eight CD collection or dvd whatever it is. Yeah it's DVD. And it goes into incredible detail. But it's just so much to take in. I don't have a favorite Beatles album because they are all different, they are like apples and oranges each one, and I really do like all of them, from the really early stuff all the way through to Let It Be. I was in high school when John Lennon got assassinated, I was in my bedroom, ironically listening to his 1980 album Double Fantasy that had recently been released to massive critical acclaim. He had totally cleaned up his life by then and along with Yoko Ono, he had a second child, who was just a baby, and some of the songs on the album are about that and family life, but they really were good songs. And I even liked some of her stuff. I was listening to a song on it called, Watching the Wheels Go Round And Round, when my mom, who didn't particularly care for the Beatles, knocked on my door, and leaned into my room and said, I just thought you would want to know that John Lennon has just been assassinated. We were all in so much shock and a lot of us wore black to school the next day.

I really enjoyed the entire documentary history of the greatest band ever! Thank you for sharing the documentary!

73 million watching on TV. Don't forget that back then that not all households could afford tv's as it was a relatively new gadget. This was a few years after they broke up. I was about 8 yrs old, my brother was playing "Help!", the first time I ever heard Beatles music, and something inside me felt euphoric, unbridled, lol! It was the melody and harmonies that moved me, then each instrument. Sounds sappy but that experience opened me up to music. Thank you for bringing back heartfelt memories 💖

You asked for our favourite Beatles LP - for me it must be "Rubber Soul" (and especially the song "Norwegian Wood"). I was 17 at the time.... and still love it....

Thank you so much for doing this. I grew up listening to The Beatles - my dad was a huge fan. I never knew some of the facts especially the part when they met in the 1950s and the different name changes. Unbelievable the number of hits and albums in less than 9 years. They wrote over 300+ songs together. The best part was they could all sing - although John and Paul did most of the singing and they could all interchangeably be the front man on stage at times (except for Ringo on the drums although he did do some solos). They did stop touring mainly due to being exhausted as well as they couldn't hear themselves due to the loudness of the crowds as well as technology that was only 2 track in the early to mid 1960s - which meant very little surround sound - or none at all. It is funny how a lot of people blamed Yoko Ono for John's distraction (which was true) but Paul had gotten married, George was going through something with his girlfriend. Another great thing was they could all write music and lyrics. Not many all round artists these days. I am thinking of Prince as he was able to write, sing and play multiple instruments.

The must-hear album is the fourth studio album is the UK original, “Beatles For Sale”.

I watched the Beatles on that local TV channel (Granada TV )in the 60s when I was 10 . Wow ! I thought what a great band and they are from my home city of Liverpool !

I'm so happy you've done this! Every reactor needs to do it to get an understanding of all the hype! Fan of the Fab 4 since age 3 here ..58;years of enjoying their music 😁

I love this video and have seen it several times. But it is by no means the only documentary about the Beatles. There have been more documentaries made about the Beatles than for any other recording act in music history!

Glad you like The Beatles Sir.

My personal favorite: The song "Day Tripper" was the first song to start a song with feedback. Re: the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" was the first 'concept album'. Aka: not an album with 5 - 10 most recent #1 hit songs, which was the norm. The Beach Boys then released their album: "Pet Sounds" & blew everything historical out of the water. Suggestion: Please do a presentation video on how 'the Paul is dead' rumors came about. I promise, you will not be disappointed. I am a Domestic Goddess in my very early 60's. You really did have photos that I have never seen before. Along with some curserary factual information. I honestly believe that you represented the thumbnail version very well. There was a radio series called: "Breakfast With the Beatles". This format was interviewing a famous rocker musician, like Stephen Tyler. The guest would tell how the Beatles influenced them musically & personally. Just saying. ≈^..^≈ BEST. DAY. NOW.

Quite a bit of the early history is new to me, and I THOUGHT I knew a good deal about them. Thanks!

I can't believe they brought up the Paul is dead hoax without explaining it, someone not familiar with the Beatles wouldn't get that. I saw the Beatles in Cleveland in 1965 when I was 16, it cost $2! I love the reaction videos, after all these years I knew all the words and music to every song so I think altho I still love them I took their music for granted. It's great to hear people point out how great it is.

I watched it all. And, growing up with The Beatles it is hard to name a "favorite" album. I pretty much like them all. Oh, and probably I listen to at least 1/2 dozen of their songs everyday.

I was here for the whole video I knew most of what you just learned...they wre/are the greatest band of all time!!

You missed what he said. An INSANE fan shot John.

DRA, you should watch the Beatle films, such as "A Hard Day's Night' and "Help!" They are really good, fun, films and they are a nice snapshot of the times, during the Beatlemania 60's! Also, there are several worthy films about the Beatles that you could check out: "Backbeat", "Nowhere Boy", "Yesterday" and "Across The Universe". Obviously, there are also many great documentaries. Enjoy!

How awesome! I love your appreciation for this band. I was just a toddler when they disbanded, so I don’t remember any of the happenings, but my mom and older brother got me hooked on them. They were awesome. BeaTles and Skynyrd are my favorite bands.

Hi loved your reaction, my family all come from Liverpool and my mum and her brothers and sisters all knew the Beatles, one of my aunt's used to go out with Paul long before they were famous and my uncle was friends with them, my nan used to have one or more of them in her house a lot, I grew up listening to the many stories. I have loved them my whole life and have all their albums. I'm so happy you are taking time to learn about them they are truly amazing 😍

Revolver is my favorite album by them.

Surprise, surprise: Paperback Writer was not on Revolver.

LONG LIVE THE BEATLES!!!

I watched with you. Not all of that was correct but well enough (I wasn’t alive at the time but have studied them. A lot lol.) The video underplayed the importance of them helping integrate concerts and failed to mention that their concert at Shea Stadium in ‘65 was the first ever stadium concert. There’s a few abbreviated videos of that concert on KZfaq you could react to! No one will ever catch them in terms of sales because they continue to be passed on to each generation. And Paul McCartney holds the World Record as most successful composer and musician in music history. And, he’s still going. BTW, there’s no freaking way to pick a favorite Beatles album 💙
