The Early Beatles: The Road to Beatlemania

Welcome to Rock and Roll Flashback!  I'm Bill Price, and in this edition of Rock and Roll Flashback, I will focus the early history of one of the most influential bands of the 1960's.  After performing and developing their unique sound in Hamburg, Germany, the Beatles returned to Liverpool, England in December 1962 after 12 performances at the Star Club in Hamburg.  Even though they had built up a following in Hamburg and Liverpool, they were still an unknown band elsewhere in England.  However, there were several hurdles to overcome before the music phenomenon that came to be known as Beatlemania hurdled the Beatles onto worldwide fame.  In this edition of The Early Beatles, I will focus on the period from 1961 to 1963, which was of great importancein the band’s history.We welcome your feedback, so please feel free to click on this link and let us know your thoughts and/or suggestions via phone text!All podcasts on the Rock and Roll Flashback Podcast are produced by brothers-in-law Bill Price and "Jumpin' John" McDermott.  The Podcast Theme Song, "You Essay", was written by John.  It was initially recorded by Bill and John on April 1, 2004 with several revisions since then. Multiple promo videos and photos for Rock and Roll Flashback Podcasts are available on the following social media sites:https://www.youtube.com/@RockandRollFlashbackhttps://www.facebook.com/rockandrollflashbackpodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/jumpinjohnmcdermott/Bill and John welcome your feedback and comments, and they can be emailed to [email protected] you for listening to Rock and Roll Flashback Podcasts!Until next time...Rock On!
