Did the Beatles originate the Beatle haircut? boots? collarless
jackets? No. Did they start the trend of self-contained rock groups
(three guitarists and a drummer) composing their own hits? No. Did
the British musical invasion end American performers' careers?
Dominate American music charts? No and no. Surprised? Relying on
music industry data (Top 40 and 100 lists, U.S. and U.K. hits by
British groups, British groups' hits on the 1964 U.S. charts, 1980s
television commercials employing ""oldies"" music, and other
comparisons), The Beatle Myth rebuts the revisionist rock
historians who greatly exaggerated the impact of the Beatles and
other British groups upon the U.S. pop music scene beginning in
1964. Widely held (and cherished!) myths that have grown over the
years are debunked in the process.
