Oh my lord, that transition from the nuns to the Beatles bursting onto the scene!
The transition from pre- to post-Beatles actually wasn't as abrupt as I'd expected it would be. It's really interesting watching the music gradually speed up at the beginning of the 1960s.
I already knew most of the songs of this era (though the only ones I remember hearing in the sixties - in the dimmest recesses of my memory - are "You Can't Hurry Love" and "Love is Blue"). It was a terrific decade, and the Beatles deserved all the praise they got.
