In the 1960s, The Beatles were probably the most famous pop group in the whole world. Since
then, there have been a great many groups that have achieved enormous fame, so it is 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.
