"Roll Over Beethoven" (Beatles) #68 4/4/1964 Bonus

Yet another Beatles entry from the week of April 4, 1964, and the single was only available in the States as an import! Capitol Records issued the remake of this Chuck Berry classic as a 45 in Canada. It went to #1 there, but charted in America solely on the strength of radio airplay and sales in border cities like Buffalo and Detroit. In the 70's it became the first US chart record for Electric Light Orchestra. The video is from the legendary Washington Coliseum concert on February 11, 1964 where they opened the show with this song. George had some microphone issues, unfortunately.
