Still perfect.

“Can’t Buy Me Love” from A Hard Day’s Night (1964)

I have been waiting to see this since I was 12, you guys. The Beatles performing the Pyramus & Thisbe scene from the end of Midsummer Night’s Dream. It’s magnificent.

I’m reminded that today marks the 48th anniversary (!!) of the Beatles’ first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. I have to share what I think is one of the finest performances of “Twist and Shout” ever recorded, the one they did for the Queen in 1963.
