Numerous events across the country have been scheduled to commemorate the Beatles’ American debut on The Ed Sullivan Show, which took place 50 years ago on Feb. 9, 1964.

CBS-TV will air it’s own The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute on Sunday, Feb. 9, with Keith Urban pairing with John Mayer for “Don’t Let Me Down,” and Brad Paisley teamed with Pharrell Williams for “Here Comes The Sun.” The show will begin at 8 p.m. ET–exactly 50 years to the day, date, and time of the original event.
