Released on the 15th August 2005 Label: Angry Penguin PEN1904 Capitol Records promised Brian Epstein that 1964 would be "the year of The Beatles" in America...and they certainly kept their word. Beatlemania swept America on the back of a brilliantly conceived and executed compilation album "Meet The Beatles", a live telecast to American cinemas and four key appearances on the Ed Sullivan TV show. By April 1964 Beatles singles occupied all five top positions on the Billboard chart, a feat which has never been equalled. This is the amazing story of how The Beatles conquered America. Featuring rare live film of the key performances by The Beatles, this is the ultimate critical review of an essential event in the history of popular music. Featuring: All My Loving, I Saw Her Standing There, From Me To You, I Want To Hold Your Hand, This Boy, She Loves You and more... Length: 103 minutes Comments I think the quality of the shows is better on The Four Complete Historic Ed Sullivan Shows featuring The Beatles
