    We resume our coverage of the Beatles by covering the second half of their second British album, “With the Beatles” and the B-side of “I Want to Hold Your Hand”, the monster hit single that soon would kickstart the entire British Invasion.

    The timeframe covered here is November and December 1963. It’s hard to believe that at this point in time, the Beatles were the most popular musical act in the history of England, and yet remained absolutely unknown in America. That would change very soon, and these were the songs that introduced the Beatles to America.

    Featured songs include;

    1) This Boy

    2) Roll Over Beethoven

    3) Hold Me Tight

    4) You Really Got a Hold on Me

    5) I Wanna Be Your Man

    6) Devil in Her Heart

    7) Not a Second Time

    8) Money (That’s What I Want)
