Awesome capture of the Beatles arriving at their destination, stepping off a private plane. The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. The group, whose best-known line-up comprised John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, is regarded as the most influential band of all time. They were integral to developing 1960s counterculture and popular music's recognition as an art form. Rooted in skiffle, beat, and 1950s rock and roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop innovatively, the band later explored styles ranging from ballads and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock. As pioneers in recording, songwriting, and artistic presentation, The Beatles revolutionized many aspects of the music industry and were often publicized as leaders of the era's youth and sociocultural movements.
