2/23/64 - 3rd Appearance on Ed Sullivan


Marking the first time Ed Sullivan ever had a guest on his show three weeks in a row, the Beatles performed again, this time though they were pre-recorded. Again, a record audience tuned in and was again treated to a throng of screaming teen-age girls in the audience. The fab four wasn't in the U.S.A. though, they'd flown home the day before arriving in London to be welcomed by 10,000 adoring fans lining the runway at Heathrow airport.
