The Beatles: why did the rock band split up and who left first?

03 November, 2022 - 0 Comments

The Beatles, also known as Liverpool’s Fab-Four, were responsible for some of the greatest hits of all time during their brief timespan.

John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr burst onto the music scene in 1963 and became superstars across the globe.

However, everything good has to end, and the band left fans heartbroken after splitting in the 1970s.

But why did the band’s members decide to go their separate ways? Here we take a look at all the different reasons for the split.

There are numerous factors attributed to the break up of The Beatles, who parted in the 1970’s.

The sudden tragic death of their manager Brian Epstein in 1967 is thought to have been a huge contributing factor. After Epstein died of a medical drug overdose, the band were forced to take business matters into their own hands, which added extra stress to their already chaotic lives.

While Lennon, Harrison and Starr wanted Allen Klein, manager of the Rolling Stones, to take over, McCartney proposed his father-in-law’s company take charge and became unhappy when he was outvoted.
