When Beatlemania landed in the United States, it was transformational. They marked their first ever U.S. concert at the Washington Colosseum on February 11, 1964, launching the broader “British Invasion”. The concert, and the tour that followed, were marked by unprecedented fan hysteria, record-breaking viewership for their televised performances, and a profound influence on music, fashion, and youth culture that began to shift the rigid social landscape of the 1950s 🎶🎸#60s #70s #80s #vintage #rock #guitargods #guitargod #1960s #1970s #1980s #retro #guitar #guitarplayer #guitarporn #music #soul #groovy #theharvestgold #musichistory #musictrivia #blues #beatles #thebeatles #60s #johnpaulgeorgeringo #johnlennon #paulmccartney #georgeharrison #ringostarr

Sister Rosetta Tharpe made gospel scream through an electric guitar.
Long before Elvis or Clapton — there was a queer Black woman shredding in church shoes.
Rock’s mother. No exaggeration.

Today in 1966, #TheWho release their #AQuickOne LP.

The title track is the final song, an expansive mini-opera format that inspired the way to #Tommy & #Quadrophenia.

Their definitive performance of #AQuickOneWhileHesAway was the crown jewel of #TheRollingStones’ #RockAndRollCircus.
