Cassius Clay and The Beatles.

Just thought this was a cool pic.

Taken at the 5th Street Gym, Miami Beach, 1964.

1. That is a cool picture

It was taken less than two weeks after the Beatles introduced themselves to America on the Ed Sullivan Show from NYC.

One week after that show, they flew down to Miami and performed on the Ed Sullivan Show a second time via satellite.

A week later, Cassius Clay shocked the world by defeating Sonny Liston for the World Heavyweight Title on Miami Beach.

Here's another cool picture taken in Miami that same year; Malcom X taking a photo of Cassius Clay.

Ali had such a charisma.

The Beatles on Miami Beach during their first U.S. visit in 1964, chatting up a couple of birds.

3. Not a great pic.

However, a notable entry in the history of 60's pop culture. :)
