The Beatles Quiz – The Fab Four Story

The Beatles formed in Liverpool in 1960 and became the most influential band in popular music. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, who replaced Pete Best in 1962, honed their act in Hamburg clubs and at Liverpool's Cavern Club.

Manager Brian Epstein polished their image and producer George Martin, the fifth Beatle, shaped their sound at Abbey Road Studios. Beatlemania spread worldwide, and their 1964 appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show drew around 73 million viewers, launching the British Invasion.

The band stopped touring in 1966 and became studio innovators with Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. George Harrison brought the sitar into pop. Their final public performance was on the Apple building roof in 1969, and Abbey Road was their last recorded album.
