I was like most other youngsters of my age that were saddened by their break up.
The first record I ever owned was a 45 of Twist and Shout at the age of 7 and I'd tried to buy
ever record by them as my parents allowed, which wasn't easy since my parents
both hated them , my mother used to call that trots music ( diarrhea ) for all their shaking and jiving they did
and the heavy beat.
Today its an anomaly that two heavily talented writing geniuses like Lennon and McCartney would be in the same band
together and its remarkable that were able to stay together for that length of time.
Its been said that Yoko Ono was the cause of the bands break up and I believe there is some truth to that but
in reality it was the inside personal diversity between Paul and John and his supporting side kick Yoko.
They've reached such a pinnacle of success as a group together including financially the inevitability of them
parting was more than likely.
It was always the hope by my generation that they would get back together and create some of that astonishing good music
but John's murder of course brought that hope to a sad end..
Oh well at least they will forever be on You-Tube to bring back those fond memories of growing up with the Beatles..
