1965

These were the years of dash and daring. Sweeping out of the final (and wonderfully old-fashioned) 1964 family Christmas Shows into the wider world of 1965, The Beatles would soon find themselves figureheads of a movement far beyond “pop” where a counter-culture / alternative society was made flesh. National boundaries were presumed to be doomed. Millions of minds were to become expanded and many trousers would soon be spandex.

...though the music would continue to pour out of them breaking in great waves over uncharted, challenging Reason and warming the heart, the Beatles would tire of those great sweating stadiums where they now played to screaming crowds who could no longer hear them.

    John's hairdo was so cool this year... and in 1966. My hair is a bit more 1964-ish of John's, but with just a flick of a hairbrush I can make it look like that ^^ YAY

    Hahahahaha... I love how Paul and Ringo are the only ones wearing their proper suits.
    It shows the boys' growth as an independent circle as well as foreshadows some of their eventual qualms with each other.
