The Beatles Tallinn, 2006 The Beatles'i läbilöögiaasta oli 1963, mil nad väljastasid oma esikalbumi ,,Please Please Me" ning Suurbritannia ajakirjanduses ilmusid artiklid ansambli kontserdil kiljuvatest ja minestavatest teismelistest. 1964. aasta alguses levis ,,biitlimaania" (nagu seda ajakirjanduses nimetati) ka Põhja-Ameerikasse ning sealt peaaegu üle kogu maailma. Nagu valdav enamik tolle ajastu briti ansamblitest, alustas ka The Beatles Ameerika rock'n rolli ja R&B artistide loomingu jäljendamisega. Mõjutusi saadi nii valgetelt esinejatelt, nagu Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly ja Carl Perkins kui ka mustadelt artistidelt Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Ray Charles ja Larry Williams. Oma tegevuse algusaastail jäljendas The Beatles oma loomingus eelnimetatud muusikuid, mõne aja pärast hakkas välja kujunema ansamblile omane eriline stiil ja kõla. Kõigest viie aasta...

Frank Sinatra oli vaieldamatult kõige tähtsam popmuusik 20. sajandil. Tema ainukesed rivaalid sellele tiitlile olid Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley ja the Beatles. Oma 60 aastat kestnud professionaalse karjääri jooksul demonstreeris ta oma erakordset võimet zarmi säilitamisel ja oma muusikaliste eesmärkide poole püüdlemisel hoolimata tihtipeale vastukäivatest trendidest. Ta tõusis esile 1930-te swingi ajastul, aitas kujuneda 40-te ja 50-te ,,laulu ajastul" (sing era), jätkuvalt võlus kuulajaid kesk-50-tel alanud roki ajastul. Ta üllitas oma esimese pop-hiti 1940. aastal ja andis välja miljonites müüvaid albumeid ka 1994. aastal. See populaarsus oli märk tema poolt lauldud ja promotud eriti 1920-te, 30-te ja 40-te populaarsete Ameerika poplaulude edust. Ta võis võtta selle perioodi suurte muusikaliheliloojate (Nt. nagu J. Kern, I. Berlin, G. Gershwin, C. Porter ja R. Rodgers) teoseid ja tõlkida neid laule sellisel viisil, mis viis nend...

It covers the middle of the North American continent. This area is called ,,the continental United states". The continental United States is bounded to the North by Canada and to the South by Mexico.

Woodstocki festival (Wikipedias) Kuni Woodstocki festivalini arvati, et maailmas on umbes 150 000 hipit, kes elavad kommuunides.Maailm pidas neid omamoodi veidrikeks, aru saamata, et hipiliikumise ideaalid on saamas paljude noorte elumotoks. Woodstocki muusikafestival oli maailma avalikkusele tõeline sokk. Festivalile kogunes 500 000 noort, kes kõik olid valmis heitma endalt käitumisnormide kammitsaid ja püüdsid Woodstockis avastada elu imesid. Hipidele vastandusid kuuekümnendatel mootorratturite jõugud - noored anarhistid, kes sageli kaldusid huligaansustele ja korrarikkumistele. Jõugud olid sageli omavahel riius. Hipi liikumine tekkis kuuekümnendatel lääneriikides just keskklassi hulgast pärit noorte seas ja muidu nooremeelsed, kes protesteerisid oma arust vanema põlvkonna materialistliku ja üheülbalise maailmapildi vastu. Selle tuumaks oli vastuseis ühiskonna tavadele, süsteemile, valitsevale elukorraldusele ja võitlu...
