The Beatles : The Sound of the Sixties

Keen to learn but short on time? Get to grips with the career of the Beatles in next to no time with this concise guide.

50Minutes.com provides a clear and engaging analysis of the life, times and music of the iconic British group the Beatles. The band shot to fame in the early 1960s with timeless singles including “Love Me Do” and “Please Please Me”, and the enthusiasm that they inspired was so great that the British press dubbed it “Beatlemania”. Several of their albums, such as Abbey Road and the pioneering concept album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, are considered to be among the greatest rock albums ever produced, and their music has inspired generations of musicians. Although the group split up for good in 1970, leaving their millions of devoted fans devastated, their popularity shows no signs of fading, and they have sold an astonishing two billion albums to date.

In just 50 minutes you will:

• Learn about the early days of the Beatles’ musical career in Liverpool and Hamburg

• Gain an insight into the Beatles’ phenomenally successful albums and the “Beatlemania” that they inspired
