Excerpt: The Beatles were an English rock band, formed in Liverpool in 1960. They are one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed acts in the history of popular music. From 1962, the group consisted of John Lennon (rhythm guitar, vocals), Paul McCartney (bass guitar, vocals), George Harrison (lead guitar, vocals) and Ringo Starr (drums, vocals).

They achieved mainstream success in the United Kingdom in late 1962, with their first single, \"Love Me Do\". Gaining international popularity and acquiring the nickname \"Fab Four\" the following year, they toured extensively until 1966. The band then retreated to recording studios until their break-up in 1970. Each subsequently found success in independent musical careers. During their studio years, they produced what critics consider some of their finest material including the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967), widely regarded as a masterpiece. They are the best-selling band in the history of popular music, and over four decades after their break-up, their recordings are still in demand. They have had more number one albums on\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781156820780\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Beatles, Magic Alex, Neil Aspinall, Mal Evans, Derek Taylor, Savile Row, Allen Klein, Apple Corps v Apple Computer, Alistair Taylor, Apple Boutique, Francie Schwartz, The Fool, Anthony Fawcett, Lee Eastman, Peter Shotton, Jeff Jones\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9781156820780","offer_id":48851352191301,"sku":"9781156820780","price":17.37,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/1fb8a50d-79fa-4f76-80bb-fc49d2446e7d.jpg?v=1726374793","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/apple-corps-von-undefined","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
