The Beatles are an iconic band who formed in Liverpool, England, in 1960, and went on to become one of the most influential musical acts of all-time. Following some early changes, the classic Beatles' line-up featured John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr.

The Beatles became international stars in the 1960s, leading the 'British Invasion' of the United States pop market, breaking numerous sales records and sparking 'Beatlemania'. As well as a long list of hit singles, The Beatles released a number of the most celebrated albums of all-time, including Rubber Soul (1965), Revolver (1966), Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967), The Beatles (also known as 'the White Album', 1968) and Abbey Road (1969).

The Beatles split up in 1970 following the release of their final album, Let It Be, but have continued to be popular with millions of people, many of whom were born long after the band ceased recording music.
