I still remember when the Beatles first came into vogue here in the United States, in the spring of 1964, when I was a seventh grader, and my younger sister was in the 5th grade. Both my sister and I first saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show one Sunday morning, at the house of some relatives who then lived in Wayland, MA, one of the towns that abutted the town that my siblings (my younger brother was less than a year old, at that time.), and I grew up in. I was skeptical of the Beatles at first, but then I got to really like them and their music, as the Ed Sullivan Show went on.
Eight Days a Week was a very humane story about the Beatles, and the playing of much of their music brought back fond memories, for the Beatles, before they broke up, were/are the very best in the rock-n-roll department.
