Beatlemania followed and thousands of teen garage bands formed. Two long years after \u2013 with the era-changing <em>The Ed Sullivan Show <\/em>appearance and the captivating realism of celluloid smash <em>A<\/em> <em>Hard Day\u2019s Night<\/em> in between<em> \u2013 <\/em>The Beatles, and pop world, went colour. First there was kooky, proto-pop video caper movie <em>Help!<\/em>, leading up to this they\u2019d smoked weed with Bob Dylan the previous August and George Harrison and John Lennon had taken LSD in April \u201965, significantly shaping their new mindset. \u2018Ticket To Ride\u2019, \u2018Help!\u2019 and the mind-blowing double A-side \u2018We Can Work It Out\u2019 \/ \u2018Day Tripper\u2019 ushered in a new phase; deeper, more introspective and way beyond the boy-girl simplicity of their early canon. After the surreal, deafening experience of Shea Stadium in August, inventing stadium-rock, The Beatles soon decamped to the studio and worked on what would become <em>Rubber Soul<\/em> between October and November. Released in the UK on 3rd December and three days later in America, the album led to volcanic eruptions in not only music, but also fashion and culture. There was a thoughtfulness and pensiveness to the lyrics, performances and arrangements. The vocals took pop vocalising somewhere else. According to Lennon, <em>Rubber Soul <\/em>was \u201cthe pot album\u201d. The influence of everything about it was huge.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">American garage bands, and indeed emerging pop successes, all took note. A quartet could do more than holler and play R&amp;B. And writing lyrics that said something was just fine. This was the beginning of the enlightened generation, just in time for that crucial second half of the decade. Thoughtful lyrics weren\u2019t just for curly-haired electric folk musicians. Ambition was in.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To mark the release of the new 68-track <em>Rubber Soul (Special Edition),<\/em> <em>Shindig!<\/em> consider how this album changed the face of US \u201960s garage, pop and folk-rock forever, paving the way for psychedelia, powerpop and beyond, using 39 examples cut between April \u201966 and October \u201970.<\/p>\n<p><em>To read the whole article order issue #180 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.silverbackpublishing.rocks\/product\/shindig_180\/\">here<\/a>.
