Rock music consists of many different styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music. Rock music developed in the 1950s and the early 1960s. At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.

After they were given an invitation to appear live on BBC, the Beatles quickly became famous in Britain with nationwide tours. By mid-1963, the Beatles had been extremely popular in England. Even their hairstyles became major trends at that time. They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the hottest thing on the pop music scene in England. They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends(传说). John Lennon and Paul McCartney were named composers of the year.

They decided on a tour to the United States in 1964. They were not sure how the Americans would react to the new type of music. Beatlemania hit New York on February 7, 1964. Hundreds of fans jammed the airport to greet them. They performed their first concert in America at CBS television’s 53rd street studio. The concert was broadcast live and attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to that time. The Beatles were described as a British invasion(入侵)by local and nationwide newspapers at that time. Their victory in America was still remembered as a major turning point in the history of rock and roll. Thanks to the Beatles, a lot of opportunities were opened up to new faces on the market. Many rock bands were able to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles.

【翻译】摇滚乐有许多不同的风格。尽管所有乐团都禀持共同的精神,但他们所制作的音乐却大相径庭。摇滚乐兴起于20世纪50年代和60年代初。就在这一时期,披头士乐队从利物浦踏入了音乐界。

【翻译】在应邀赴BBC现场演出之后,通过全国巡演,披头士乐队声名鹊起。到1963年年中,该乐队已是风靡英伦,风光无两。甚至他们的发型也成为当时的时尚潮流。他们举办大型音乐会,并在俱乐部演出。他们成为英国流行音乐界炙手可热的人物。一开始他们只是一个小有名气的乐团,可是,当年年底他们已然成为演艺界的传奇。约翰·列侬和保罗·麦卡特尼被评为当年年度作曲家。

【翻译】1964年,他们决定去美国巡演,尽管当时他们并不知道美国人会对这种新型音乐有什么反应。196427日,披头士狂热席卷纽约。数百名乐迷挤满机场迎接他们。在哥伦比亚广播公司的第53街演播室,他们举行了在美国的首场音乐会。音乐会进行了现场直播,创造了当时电视史上单场音乐会观众数量之最的记录。乐队一度被当地及全国性报纸描述为不列颠入侵。他们在美国的胜利仍然被认为是摇滚乐历史上的一个重大转折点。正是由于披头士乐队,许多良机向市场新人打开了大门。许多摇滚乐队也得以追随其音乐的脚步前行。
