The Beatles
The Beatles, An extraordinary British band which was once known as the Silver Beatles made an amazing run of number 1 records that were still popular even when the band broke up. This group inspired a worldwide frenzy of beatlemania, probably because they projected the self-image of the 1960s teenager. The three guitarists in the group-John Lennon (Oct.9,1940-Dec.8,1980),Paul McCartney(born June 18,1942),
and George Harrison(born Feb.25,1943)-first played together as schoolboys with the Quarrymen. In the late 1950s the group was renamed Jonny and the Moondogs,the Moonshiners,then the Silver Beatles. They had been performing in small clubs in Liverpool and in Hamburg,West Germany, when the original drummer was replaced in 1962 by Ringo Starr(born Richard Starkey,July 7,1940).All four Beatles were from Liverpool.To be continued.
