Actually today is the real 50th Anniversary as it was the day they landed in America. And, technically speaking it was not Feb 9th that they "first" appeared on American TV. Yes, the first live performance but they were actually shown on film from Liverpool on the Jack Paar show about a month before they appeared on Ed's Really Big Shew.

Yep.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Amon Duul II really made an impact eh?

Bapu was on The Ed Sullivan show--as Topo Gigio. 

Ooooooooo eeeedieeeeeeee

Fixt.

I imagined Bapu being taller, more of a Jose Himenez than a Topo Gigio.

Happy Birthday!
 
and better luck next year with the gifts!

Well, I am a die hard Beatles fan; they landed in America on my birthday 50 years ago today. Yes, I was only 11 years old but I was already into them BIG TIME since I had seen the film clip on the Jack Paar show a month earlier. I was pumped up to see them on the BIG SHEW Eddie put on every Sunday night.

you better hope there's a lot of pictures in them...may be to late to learn how read.
 
Could be loaded with a thousand examples of the Am chord though.
 
Happy BD
