The music lives on, but not Beatlemania. I don’t know, Joe, Beatlemania was something all its own, and of its time.

Sort of proved the truth in a collective form of "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear". I've got The Beatles Hidden Archives, and John Lennon Hidden Archives -- lots of interesting things left to learn, May Pang's book included. Still a bunch of certifiable Beatlemaniacs out there, I reckon. I think GMartin was right, they were paradigm shifters (or at least the catalyst for it) and made me a believer in the concept.

I think it was George Martin who said they were truly of their time, meaning they were extraordinary people who came along at just the right time and who experienced just the right amount of hard knocks to produce the phenomenon they became. I'm a big fan, and over the years, the more I dig into their music and the stories behind the music via books like Marc Lewisohn's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Beatles-Recording-Sessions-1962-1970/dp/0600612074/ref=pd_sim_b_title_1/105-6497610-9595649" rel="nofollow">Complete Recording Sessions</a>, the more I admire and appreciate the gifts the group left us.
