December 18, 1965: "Rubber Soul" debuts
A long article about the Rolling Stones' autumn tour dominates this issue, with reporter Louise Criscione noting that in Boston the Stones actually drew more crowds (and money) than the Beatles had done the last time they toured that city. Meanwhile the release of "Rubber Soul" by the Beatles apparently so overwhelmed the Beat staff than no one could say anything about it.
The Beat also covers the Everly Brothers' tour of the UK and speculates whether San Francisco is becoming a kind of Liverpool with its notable new hitmakers like We Five, the Beau Brummels, The Grass Roots, the Mojo Men, and the Vejtables. Not sure about the longevity of the last group though. PDF size 9.1 MB. 16 pages. Vol. 1 No. 40.
