The Fab Four in New York: Shea Stadium, Ed Sullivan, Electric Lady Studios, and More - Village Preservation 

While our neighborhood holds deep ties to the folk and jazz scenes, rock and roll had a well-established home here as well. The 1960s also brought the legendary British Invasion, when a wave of U.K. pop and rock bands traveled west, across the pond, bringing their electric amps and bouncy lyrics to the American stage. The kickoff of this absolute sensation came with The Beatles’ first performance on the Ed Sullivan Show on February 9, 1964, when more than 70 million Americans tuned in to watch the head-bopping fabulous foursome sing their addictive harmonies and love songs.

And two days after that career-making performance, the band quietly went downtown to the Improvisation Club, where they mingled with Stella Stevens, Tuesday Weld, and Jill Haworth. The Beatles remain the one of the best-selling musical acts of all time and are considered the vanguard and most successful band of this invasion.
