As they walked off the plane, thousands of people stood there to welcome them. They were screaming their names and singing their songs. Everyone had heard of them, they were the true meaning of rock and roll; they defined it. They were the biggest sensation since Elvis; they called themselves The Beatles. They had never expected to be the next sensation. No one ever expects to become a great legend in national or world history. It had taken them two years to establish the final four members, but once they joined together they were known around the world. Even though they were not the greatest guitarists, drummers, singers or musicians (Professor Joel Friedman, personal interview). As a whole they came together as a world champion team, like a finely tuned machine. But just as every dynasty has its finest hour they came to an end, just like any great thing. No one ever wanted or thought this miraculous band would ever cease to be. However, they did, but why is the question many!

When they were in Liverpool, it was l!
ike they understood the crowd, but once out touring around the world, it was different. I can't imagine a reason that would make us do any sort of tour ever again (www. But we've had enough performing now. Also, Harrison and Starr were married, and both of their families lived outside of London, which made recording and touring difficult. Which causes tension and controversy. Though the screams have stopped and the fans no longer are at the airport to greet them when they get off the plane, they will always be known as the band that changed music for the better. They had about seven great years together, at least from what the world new, but soon things started to change. While spending more and more time with Dylan the Beatles began to experiment in drug use along with him.
