60 years ago! Did I blink? I seems like just yesterday I was listening to this on the radio.

On the 05th October 1962 "Love Me Do", The Beatles first single released starting it all. Within twelve months, their popularity and thirst for their beat music had become such a frenzied worldwide phenomena, in late 1963 a new word was coined to describe it by the British press, thus "Beatlemania" entered the lexicon. 

A Beatles aficionado to the core, I couldn't find an original full B&W video clip of The Beatles performing "Love Me Do, so in celebration of that epic day, here's my favorite Beatles' tutor paying homage to them & "Love Me Do"

Just wanting to share my awe and joy of this day 60 years on.
