What was the British Invasion of the 1960s?

www.historyguy.com/biofiles/rolling_stones.htmlThe early 1960s saw a multitude of British bands invading America with their poptastic tunes and Britishness. Never before had UK bands had such success and chart topping tunes as these early 1960s pioneers. This involved a host of British Bands travelling across the Atlantic with a style of music and fashion that had never been seen before. Rock and Roll had its foundations in America in the previous decade, but in this new decade the world and especially America cried for more. The freshness of British Blues rock and pop was met with great applomb by a wanting audience; in fact bands like the Rolling Stones were repackaging black American Blues and making it their own. Bands who could find success in Britain were now conquering the U S of A to an even greater degree; everything British was deemed uber cool.
