Comment:

In an era when girl groups and teen idols dominated the U.S. charts, the British Invasion stormed our shores like nothing before or since, its musical and cultural explosion not only making rock groups fresh and exciting again, but also redefining what "pop" could — and [i]should[/i] — mean. In the mid-'60s, nothing seemed hipper to Yanks than being a Brit, [i]especially[/i] one who swung a guitar or manhandled a microphone. From the back-alley, blues-drenched rock 'n' roll of the Rolling Stones and the Pretty Things to the heavenly harmonies and dazzling pop artistry of the Bee Gees and the Hollies, the leading lights of the British Invasion colored their music with the full 64-crayon box — and we've got 75 of the Invasion's greatest moments on wax to show you exactly what we mean.
