The Beatles then had a tour secured in America.- Paul McCartney eventually became the bass player.- Their producer George Martin was assigned to them. He has a classical background and sometimes played piano in their songs. Martin helped choose which songs they wrote were to be recorded.- Lennon and McCartney began writing together. They soon started to write separately.- The Beatles captured early rock ‘n’ roll with folk musical elements.- They came to the United States after the assassination of JFK.- They would re-release their songs from Britain to the United States.- A Hard Day’s Night was their last album that sounded like the early Beatles.- “Yesterday” was influenced by folk music. Since Bob Dylan challenged them because of their lyrics, this song contained more meaningful lyrics. Only Paul McCartney was on the recording for this song. This song is the most covered.- In 1965, they released the album Rubber Soul. This was their coming-of-age album. This transformed them into the rest of their career.
