Here they are . The Beatles!

The Beatles are getting the big-screen biopic treatment in not just one film, but a Fab Four of movies that will give each band member their own spotlight — all of which are to be directed by Sam Mendes.

For the first time, the Beatles, long among the stingiest rights granters, are giving full life and music rights to a movie project. Sony Pictures announced Monday a deal that may dwarf all music biopics that have come before it, with the stories of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr spread out over a quartet of films.

Ed Sullivan -- It was 61 Years ago Today !

I remember watching from the living room with my family there also.

On Feb. 9, 1964, the Beatles made their first live American television appearance on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” broadcast from New York on CBS. The quartet played five songs, including “She Loves You” and “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” to a crowd of screaming teenagers in person and more than 70 million viewers across the country.

My parents no interest in Elvis or Rock'n'Roll.

It was my interest in watching the show, or I'd run away from home if I wasn't allowed to that made viewing it possible.

My mom and her PTA group's byline was "Don't get so worked up about The Beatles... they're just a "Fad."

Needless to say, I had the Last Laugh on that one!!
