Though still playing as the Quarrymen, McCartney, Lennon, and Harrison created what would become the Beatles. Later George Harrison joined the group taking over lead guitar.

His sound has evolved over his six-plus decades as a musician but one thing that remains the same is his ability to capture his audience with incomparable songwriting.
