According to George Harrison, this is why the Beatles' fans were so fervent.
In 1964, The Beatles were on the verge of becoming international superstars, and Beatlemania was sweeping the globe. Without a doubt, there has never been a fan base quite like The Beatles' in the 1960s. What was it about the group's fans that made them so fervent? In his Daily Express column, George Harrison discussed his theory with the help of Daily Express writer Derek Taylor.
In his Feb 14, 1964 Daily Express column, Harrison wrote about the band's first time playing in America. They first appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show and then toured the country, culminating in a performance at Carnegie Hall (which they were most looking forward to). It had been a whirlwind trip, and Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr were all relieved to discover that the Americans had welcomed them with open arms. They did, however, discover thаt they were being wаtched.
