The Beatles were a highly influential rock band formed in Liverpool, England in 1960. Originally consisting of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Stuart Sutcliffe and Pete Best, they became one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed acts in the history of popular music. Between 1963-1970, they released 12 studio albums including Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Abbey Road, and had many hit singles such as "Hey Jude" and "Come Together." Following their breakup in 1970, they pursued solo careers but remain one of the best-selling artists of all time.
