Excellent article! A large part of The Beatles success and momentum in the USA was driven by the JFK assassination and dismal aftermath. They came as a balm to a shocked and mourning country. I remember buying a 45 of "She Loves You" and bringing it to a local Saturday night dance. This was in small-town America and when the DJ played it everyone screamed.

I wonder if George had an inkling that first time in New York that his return would feel different. Wonderful writing here Robert, as always.
