Almost ten years in the making, this is the second volume in the two volume book series The Beatles In Canada. Following right where the first book—The BEATLES IN CANADA - The Origins Of Beatlemania!—left off in 2015—The BEATLES IN CANADA - The Evolution 1964-1970!— is the definitive history of the group in Canada, starting in late 1964 and winding along the Beatles road all the way through to mid-1970.
Between late 1964 and early 1970, the musical evolution of The Beatles impacted many aspects of social life in the Great White North. This second volume of The Beatles In Canada series chronicles the six years following The Beatles’ first tour of Canada in 1964. The group returned to Canada for four fab concerts in 1965 and 1966. In a population of 20 million people, hundreds of thousands of Canadian teens were tuned in to the music of The Beatles. The Beatles’ TV appearances, films and recordings exerted a profound influence on young Canadians, whether it was fashion, religion, politics or community. Canadian-manufactured Beatles records were selling in the hundreds of thousands too. Nowhere was their influence greater than on Canada’s performing arts and on the new music coming out of Canada. Some of Canada’s greatest musical artists of the Sixties and Seventies have shared their stories inside this book.
