BRITISH MUSIC
The Beatles were born in Liverpool in 1960. Their international success has left an indelible mark in history, influencing all young people regarding fashion and music. A star in the Hollywood ''Walk of fame'' is also dedicated to them . Their music didn't have a specific genre, in fact they tried various genres including: rock and roll, pop, baroque pop and making mixes that were all original for the time. They greatly influenced music and fashion and made 13 albums. The band was made up of John Lennon, Paul McCartny, George Harrison and Ringo Star. First, in 1957, they were called the Quarryman, then in 1960 they transformed into the Beatles and their style also changed. The group got an audition for the EMI record company and recorded Love me do. In 1970 the group broke up due to chemistry problems between the members of the group and fans hoped for a reunion. In 1980 a boy shot five shots at John Lennon killing him, and in 2001 George Harrison died.
