I always thought that Ed Sullivan saw them first at Heathrow airport, then found a way to book them on his show. I was always led to believe that Sid Bernstein was just an opportunist who got lucky and booked them for the Carnegie Hall shows.
More of the same. But the comment of Tony Barrow that starts at 31:40 is one of the most enlightening in all these talking heads documentaries on The Beatles. The creator of the term "fab four" speaks about the business backstages that leads to the massive event the arrival of The Beatles in US was. Don't understand why Anthology or this latest Beatles '64 doc never dig this matter deeper. Fascinating topic...
The Beatles knew they were a good band, McCartney has said so many times, and we did see them at their best! The Washington Concert is absolute proof!
