While I'm wandering down Memory Lane, I remember the Beatles! I'd like to be able to say I was there at Kennedy Airport this day 40 years ago when they arrived for an American tour...but I wasn't. I did see them on TV at home, thrilled by the wild screams of the crowds as they got off the plane. I see pictures of the Fab Four as they were--and they look like such babies, four young musicians with mop style hair cuts just barely out of their teens. My parents, who are deaf, knew how important this group was to my brother and me and so we were allowed to stay up for the entire Ed Sullivan Show. They revolutionized music. Do young people these days know who they were? I wonder...
