American
rock and roll had an
tremendous impact on the entire world and especially in
Britain. British kids were inspired by the r&b and
rock movements which began to form the beginnings of the British Invasion in
the
underground of London in the late 50s. Before long bands from England were dominating the rock and roll
scene throughout the world and soon found its way back to America where the
influences had
originated. British bands combined rock and roll
with a working class mentality to form what would be arguably the largest and
most popular movement in rock history.
The Beatles arrived in America in 64 and were greeted
by a swarm of adoring fans the likes of which America had never seen before of
since. Appearing on the Ed Sullivan Show they cemented their place in the rock
world forever. Labeled Beatlemania, the phenomenon swept the world, in
particular the US where fans reached an almost hysterical and feverish pitch at
times attempting to maul and rip the clothes off artist like the Beatles and
others.
This caused other British
bands to head to the US like The Rolling Stones, who presented dark aggressive
and moody music which fused underground pre punk elements. Groups like the Yardbirds,
the Who, the Kinks, would hit it big during the
second wave of the British invasion in the late 60s.
