Since it's 45 years ago that the Beatles played the Ed sullivan show I figured it to be a cool idea to show off those moments in rock and pop in which Legends were created.
First of all, The Beatles at Ed Sullivan
Litteraly millions of people watched this and lord knows how many people started bands after watching the Fab Four on TV that night.
The Jackson Five performing at Motown 25'th anniversary 1983
Just a few moments prior to this performance Michael Jackson was considered to be a succesful soul singer but he wasn't a mega star yet. He had just released his second solo album "Thriller" but it hadn't been selling that much, until that night that is. Because a few minutes after performing with his brothers Michael performed "Billy Jean" prompting everybody who saw him either on TV or or live on stage that night, to buy "Thriller" making him a multimillion selling superstar.
Queen at Live Aid 1985
Bob Geldoff had landed Queen a place on Live Aid as a favor. Queen by then was yesterday's news their albums "Hot space" and "The Works" weren't selling all that well and the four were talking about calling it a day. But when Freddie Mercury, John Deacon, Brian May and Roger Taylor appeared on stage with every intention of it being their final show they rocked the place so hard that it was very clear that Queen wasn't finished at all. In fact, their peak was happening right at that afternoon in Wembley stadium.
