Do you know of any other rock band that surpasses The Beatles in pop culture influence? John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr are all estimated to have sold over 600 million records, more than any other artist in history, and remain rock icons to this day. Although John and George are no longer with us, Paul and Ringo still hold the banner of their lifetime band upright and remain active both in the studio and on the concert stage. The road to the top has certainly not been an easy one for the Fab Four. Hundreds of gigs at Liverpool's Cavern Club and in Hamburg's putsches have been behind the transformation of a bunch of hard rockers playing rockʼnʼroll standards into a unique rock hit machine, which has seen the core of the band gel perfectly. The success-hungry band then turned first the UK and then the rest of the world on its head with a series of hit singles and albums. Despite a period of Beatlemania in which the band managed to cope with massive popularity, the Beatles worked their way up to a period in which they produced groundbreaking psychedelic gems in the Abbey Road studios.
Let's board the legendary Yellow Submarine and explore the depths of the Beatles' output. The aim of this book is not only to present the songs of the legendary foursome, but also to show the consequences of the revolution the Beatles launched in the music industry. Enjoy this spectacular and unpredictable voyage!
