The Beatles' love of American music helped enrich them and us
One of the best parts of the Beatles story is how their love of American music not only influenced their music but helped introduce that music to a lot of young listeners.

And it was through the Beatles that a lot of listeners, especially Americans, heard some of these songs for the first time.
