What was it about social, political, and musical in the 60s that made the country so ready for the British Invasion?
In the 60s John f Kennedy became president. Elvis was in the service, and people had high hopes in John f Kennedy. At the time of the British Invasion, Motown, r&b was mostly what was played, it was time for something new.

Where the Beatles and the stones so good they could have made the charts at anytime or was it just good timing?
The Beatles undoubtedly could have made the charts at anytime, girls peed themselves just by seeing them, they also stopped playing live because of the screaming girls. I don't think that's just good timing. As for the Rolling Stones, if mick Jagger first came in with the "dance" moves he does they would have never been signed. I believe the stones got lucky with time.
