The Beatles early days: Band were forced to 'wash and shave with URINAL water'

The Beatles came to an end in 1970 after a collection of disagreements, and a slow degradation of relationships between the four members. John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr were the most popular people on the planet, but they simply couldn’t work together any more after ten years of hard recording, performing, and touring.

The 1960s were a different time for the band, however. Despite becoming icons later in the decade, they began with nothing to their names, and no notoriety.

A recent interview with former Fab Four pal and artist Klaus Voorman told of the band’s squalor in the earlier days.

Voorman first explained to The Guardian that he met the band in Hamburg, Germany, in 1960.

After storming out of the home of his girlfriend at the time - The Beatles' photographer Astrid Kirchherr - he came across a club that the Fab Four were playing at.
