When the Beatles touched down in New York on February 7, 1964 for their first visit to America, they brought with them a sound that hadn't been heard before. By the time they returned to England two weeks later, major changes in music, fashion, the record industry, and the image of an entire generation had been set into motion. Coming less than three months after the assassination of President Kennedy, the Beatles' visit helped rouse the country out of mourning. A breathless and condescending media concentrated on the band's hairstyles and their adoring fans, but their enduring importance lay in their music, wit, and style, a disconnect that signaled the beginning of the generation gap. In this intriguing cultural history, Martin Goldsmith examines how and why the Beatles struck such a lasting chord.

    The Beatles also inspired and brought to life a lot of music. Within two years such American bands as the Byrds and the Monkees, who owed their sound and their look to the Beatles, were climbing the charts.

    The Beatles were great artists, and their most important influence was musical. To begin with, their sound and style represented a unique synthesis of many genres—from early rock ’n’ roll, blues, and country

    But the Beatles were anything but normal; they were the greatest band and the most influential cultural force of the decade that became synonymous with their name.
