① is,

"This work was sold on the Internet in the United States in 2003, and attracted attention for including the entire broadcast of the Beatles' appearances on "The Ed Sullivan Show" on February 9, 16, and 23, 1964, and on September 12, 1965 (including parts of other performers and MCs). This time, it has been happily promoted to regular sales. I look forward to the future progress of the "Beatles Program Project". 10 of the 20 songs they performed were also seen in "First U.S. Visit", but the picture quality has improved. A must-have for enthusiasts! There are some parts where Paul and John's voices are quiet due to microphone problems, but their partner's voice stands out and it's interesting. In "I Saw Her Standing There", "I Want to Hold You", and "From Me to You", you can clearly hear John singing higher parts than Paul in falsetto. In the NHK rebroadcast of "Help!" in 1992, the second verse where John gets the lyrics wrong was cut, but this is the complete version. The February 23rd episode was recorded only with their scenes, and there are geeky fun things like the knot of the host Sullivan's tie being different (lol). ”

② is,

The Beatles performed in Japan five times over three days from June 30th to July 2nd, 1966 at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, two of which were broadcast on TV. The first was the evening performance on June 30th, and the second was the afternoon performance on July 1st, and this DVD contains these two performances. The version broadcast in real time was the July 1st performance, and the June 30th performance was first broadcast on TV 12 years later in 1978. Although the Beatles performed so many shows, it is good to know that the only ones that remain as “historical records” in full color are the <US Shea Stadium> and <Nippon Budokan performances>.

Tweets--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...It's not so much about the performance, but the significance of the Budokan concert, which took place two years after the Tokyo Olympics in 1964, was a turning point in the consciousness of young people in Japan and in the music industry, so it's really significant.

On the night of their visit, Yuzo Kayama made them eat sukiyaki, and even though the Blue Comets and others sang as an opening act, they were kicked out of the venue and couldn't see the performance, and in the audience were five members of the Tigers, who would become the trigger for the GS boom, who came from Kyoto, and five years later, they brought the curtain down on the GS boom started by the Beatles on the same stage at the Budokan, and then the 70s new rock era arrived, with Deep Purple, Chicago, and Zeppelin filling the Budokan almost every day with the <foreign artist> boom that followed. Before The Beatles came to Japan, Satoshi Akao was against the Nippon Budokan, saying, "It is unacceptable to let people who don't understand martial arts use the sacred martial arts venue!" But it became a "sacred place of music," and many artists and live performances were recorded on LPs and DVDs and sent out to the world, and the name "BUDOKAN" became known all over the world in both name and reality. Nowadays, there are many slogans such as "Aim for Budokan!" in TV anime and idol groups, and the origin of these is the 1966 Beatles' visit to Japan.

The "Beatles Visit to Japan Studies," which was serialized for a long time in the music information magazine [Record Collectors], is filled with memories of those who were there.
