May 25, 1962
Brian Epstein receives a copy of the "Application For Artiste' Contract" from George Martin, representative of Parlephone Record Company of London, England. Just a few signatures and the Beatles are well and truly on their way.
It's been a little less than 50 years since the Beatles appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show February 9th, 1964 and changed our lives forever. The Beatles started their professional careers with a trip to Hamburg, Germany in August of 1960. I'm going to post to this blog what the Beatles were doing 50 years ago to the day from just before that first tour until the historic Ed Sullivan appearance. "Follow by email" for ongoing updates. (Eternal thanks to Mark Lewisohn.)
