 Re: 'The Invasion' section - this statement is untrue: ""...the first airing of a Beatles song in the United States."" Actually, prior to December, 1963, a number of Beatles singles were released in the USA, and some were briefly on the radio playlist charts.  I'll check back to to see if someone has removed this seemingly 'sourced' disinformation from the article. Thanks. ~~~~"
