Although Rhapsody in Blue was noted by most biographers as his most famous production, he had composed many other pieces that are anticipated to never be forgotten.

The British Invasion occurred in the 1960’s when rock and pop music groups from the United Kingdom became very prominent in the United States. Due to the powerful tones of American rock and roll in the 1950’s, many British youth tried to recreate the image and sound of popular American musicians. Countless acts failed, but a few prevailed and went on to become some of the greatest performers in musical history.

Jimi Hendrix is such a prominent figure in American popular music that many books had been written about him and many movies had been made, attempting to recreate him. One such biopic that came out in 2014 is Jimi: All Is By My Side, directed by John Ridley.

Ridley focuses on the one year prior to Hendrix’s explosive performance at the 1967 Monterrey Pop Festival.

The Beatles were one of the first artists to consider their albums more strongly, not thriving off of the success of key singles.10 Songs besides singles were not only filler, creating thematic songs that were consistently high quality, from beginning to end.11 Long before music videos’ popularity in the 1980s, The Beatles made full length films featuring their music, in essence being the first music videos. 12 They also pioneered the genre of Psychedelic Rock along with The Beach Boys, being some of the first to highly chart using guitar feedback and electronic effects within their music.13 It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of America’s young people began to play guitar and form bands from the influence of The Beatles, heightening the amount of garage rock bands forming in the US.14 “Beatlemania”, the term used to describe the intense fandom surrounding The Beatles, was clearly visible through their impact upon fashion.15 The hairstyle shared by each Beatle, the “mop-top”, was seen as messy and was often disdainfully looked upon by adults, yet it began to be widely imitated across youth.16 Their hair grew longer and longer, and other groups followed as longer hair became more socially accepted due to their influence.17 It is difficult to understand the extent to which The Beatles have affected us, transforming music, fashion, and culture in general.
