Quote:
Then Lennon's art school friend, Stuart Sutcliffe, joined the band as their bass player(McCartney was playing dual guitars with Harrison at this point), and it was Sutcliffe who suggested they change their name to "Beatals," in reference to Buddy Holly and The Crickets, whom John, Paul, and Stuart were fans of. They later changed that name to "Silver Beetles," and then altered the spelling to "Silver Beatles," and then shortened it to "The Beatles" by the time their regular drummer, Pete Best, joined the group and they became a five piece band. Best and Sutcliffe are the two men often referred to as "The Fifth Beatle." Well, the rest is history. Sutcliffe left the band to pursue his career in art studies and McCartney took over as bass player(Sutcliffe tragically died years later from a brain hemorrhage). Best was fired from the band for a number of reasons - he was underperforming as a drummer; he lacked chemistry with the other members of the band; the band's manager, Brian Epstein, disliked him and felt he didn't fit in with the others - and drummer Ringo Starr from Rory Storm and the Hurricanes was hired as his replacement. __________________

Hey, it was the 1950s and 1960s. And it was England.

That's not a good enough excuse.

They're ok, but nothing special.

I didn't get into them until my late teens. The bands I was listening to at the time were Van Halen, Guns N' Roses, Motley Crue, and Def Leppard.
