Features: In 2000, The Beatles' record sales reached 14 million, topping the charts that year. For a band that had disbanded over 30 years ago, this was indeed remarkable. Starting from their first appearance on Ed Sullivan's television show over 30 years ago, "Beatlemania" swept the world, changing the face of rock music. The development of The Beatles reflected the characteristics of their era, and their influence went beyond the music industry, penetrating all aspects of social life. This book tells how the members John, Paul, George, and Ringo formed The Beatles, how they lived and worked together, why the band eventually disbanded, and what happened to their solo careers after their split, as well as John's death. It reveals the secrets behind The Beatles' enduring charm over the years.
