1960. Manager Brian Epstein moulded them into a
professional act and producer George Martin
enhanced their musical potential. They gained
popularity in the United Kingdom after their first
modest hit, "Love Me Do", in late 1962.

innovative and widely influential albums Rubber Soul
(1965), Revolver (1966), Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club
Band (1967), The Beatles (1968), and Abbey Road (1969).
After their break-up in 1970, they each enjoyed
