The Beatles foram uma banda de rock britânica, formada em Liverpool em 1960 e o grupo musical mais comercialmente bem-sucedido e aclamado da história da música popular. A partir de 1962, o grupo era formado por John Lennon (guitarra rítmica e vocal), Paul McCartney (baixo e vocal), George Harrison (guitarra solo e vocal) e Ringo Starr (bateria e vocal). Enraizada no skiffle e no rock and roll da década de 1950, a banda veio mais tarde a assumir diversos gêneros que vão do folk rock ao rock psicodélico, muitas vezes incorporando elementos da música clássica e outros, em formas inovadoras e criativas. A sua crescente popularidade, que a imprensa britânica chamava de "Beatlemania", fez com que eles crescessem em sofisticação. Os Beatles vieram a ser percebidos como a encarnação de ideais progressistas e sua influência se estendeu até as revoluções sociais e culturais da década de 1960.
Durante os cinco primeiros minutos da primeira apresentação dos Beatles no programa de televisão americano "Ed Sullivan" em 1964, não houveram assaltos nem homicídios nos Estados Unidos.
Os Beatles foram os primeiros a fazer video clips das suas músicas. Estavam cansados de tocar diversas vezes em programas de TV, então decidiram gravar as músicas em vídeo e distribuir para as TVs. Os 2 primeiros clips foram: Paperback Writer e Rain. George Harrison disse na série Anthology: "De certa forma, inventámos a MTV"
O disco Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band foi o primeiro disco no mundo a vir com um encarte com fotos e letras das músicas.
Quem pensou no nome Beatles foi John Lennon.
Ringo é o Beatle mais velho, nasceu em 07/07/40.
George Harrison é o Beatle mais novo, nasceu em 25/02/43.
Ringo teve diversos problemas de saúde quando criança. Ficou em coma por várias semanas aos 6 anos de idade. Com 13 anos ele teve pleurisia.
Os Beatles foram os primeiros a colocar excertos de trás para frente nas músicas, como em "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Blue Jay Way", "Rain", "Free As A Bird".
Quem criou os famosos cortes de cabelo dos Beatles foi Astrid Kirchner.
Após um espetáculo nas Filipinas foi marcado um jantar entre os Beatles e a primeira-dama desse país, mas os próprios Beatles não foram avisados. Com isso, ela ficou esperando por eles a toa no palácio. Ela sentiu-se humilhada e no outro dia a caminho do aeroporto, os Beatles foram perseguidos por populares que tentavam linchá-los.
O grupo passou por uma progressão de nomes, incluindo "Quarrymen", "Johnny and The Moondogs"' e "Long John and The Beatles". Sutcliffe sugeriu o nome "The Beetles" como homenagem a Buddy Holly & The Crickets.
