THE BEATLES
In the 1960s, The Beatles were probably the most famous pop group in the whole
world. Since then, there have been many groups that have achieved enormous
fame, so itis perhaps difficult now to imagine how sensational The Beatles were
at that time. They were four boys from the north of England and none of them
had any training in music. They started by performing and recording songs by
black Americans and they had some success with these songs. Then they started
writing their own songs and that was when they became really popular. The
Beatles changed pop music. They were the first pop group to achieve great
success from songs they had written themselves. After that it became common
for groups and singers to write their own songs. The Beatles did not have a long
career. Their first hit record was in 1963 and they split up in 1970. They stopped
doing live performances in 1966 because it had become too dangerous for them
- their fans were so excited that they surrounded them and tried to take their
clothes as souvenirs! However, today some of their songs remain as famous as
they were when they first came out. Throughout the world many people can sing
part of a Beatles song if you ask them.
