Teenage John Lennon and Paul McCartney Wrote 'About 100' Still Unreleased Songs
Even before John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr were known as the world’s biggest boy band, Lennon and McCartney were writing songs together after school. The Beatles revisited some of these unreleased songs during The Beatles: Get Back, even if McCartney thought they were “unsophisticated.”
Formed by teenage Lennon in the 1950s, the Quarrymen first emerged in Liverpool, eventually adding McCartney and then Harrison to their roster. According to All Music, they changed their name to The Silver Beetles, later becoming The Silver Beatles.
After adding Ringo Starr to their lineup and changing their name a final time to the Beatles, the group became one of the world’s biggest rock bands. The Beatles became international superstars, performing at The Ed Sullivan Show. Since their debut, the band released songs like “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “Hey Jude,” and “In My Life.”
