Introduction
In the 1960’s, The Beatles broke some barriers of the traditional culture, through the way they sang and played their music and their provocative behavior, aweless, but friendly at the same time. This attitude led the four Beatles, individually and as a whole, to the condition of idols of the successive generations. In 2012, it is celebrated the 50th year of this “movement”.

A few years later, Paul McCartney invited his school friend and guitar player George Harrison, while John invited his friend Stu Sutcliffe to play the bass. In 1960, Pete Best started to play the drums, until he was
