Self-proclaimed ‘more popular than Jesus’ band, The Beatles, have been on top of the music world since 1963’s Please Please Me. Sixty years on from the band conception, and we are a world away from the place we were when they started. Through highs, fights, tragedies, and first-class albums, The Beatles have made the biggest mark on music history.
