Four[[The Beatles]] are an obscure British band, made up of four lads from Liverpool -- [[John Lennon]], [[Paul McCartney]], [[George Harrison]], and [[Ringo Starr]] -- who released some albums in [[The Sixties]], and are credited by many for changing the face of rock music, while; for others they were at least major pioneers of the new style of pop rock, and a major force of [[The British Invasion]]. For many people, they are also the face of [[The Sixties]]. Which is not bad work, really.
 
''[[Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band]]'' is considered by many critics to be the greatest album in history and is credited with really changing the way people listened to pop music; it also has one of the most parodied and homaged album covers in the history of music. The simpler image on the cover of ''Abbey Road'' of [[Abbey Road Crossing|the band walking in near-lockstep across the street]] is a close competitor for most homaged cover, as is the half-shadowed band portrait that was used on the British album ''With the Beatles'' and its American equivalent/[[Macekre]] ''Meet the Beatles''.
