The Beatles’ music lives on

  The news that albums by the pop and rock band The Beatles( 披头士乐队 )are soon to be re-released worldwide is sure to delight their fans.The teenagers now adults who listened to them back in the 1960s likely already own most of their albums.

  The re-relese of The Beatles’ music catalogue( 目录 )is clearly aimed at today's teenagers who want to discover for themselves the pop band their parents adored.It's proof of the genius( 天才 )of the fantastic four's music that today's teenage generation want to listen to them.

  A four-member band from Liverpool England that formed in 1960 and broke up in 1970 the Beatles were one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed( 称赞 )bands in the history of popular music.The two most famous band members were Paul McCartney and John Lennon.

  The band's innovative( 创新的 )music and cultural impact helped define the 1960s and their influence on pop culture is still evident today.When the US music magazine Rolling Stone made a list in 2004 of the 100 greatest artists of all time it surprised no one that they gave The Beatles the top spot of number one.

  So why nearly 40 years after the hand's split are they still so popular? Accoding to Barry Miles Paul McCarthey's biographer(传记作者) the answer is that they were the first of their kind.“They were essentially(本质上地)the first rock band.The Beatles were the first of the British singer-songwriting bands and they just hapened to be the best.They were the first band to play in stadiums to have their own products they were ground-breaing in every way ”he said.

  They were also unbelievably talented as Miles also pointed out “ They had great performing and songwriting talent not only John and Paul but George wrote some fantastic songs and the likelihood of having three gifted songwriters in the same band is very remote.”
