If asked to name the most influential rock band in history, most people would probably choose the Beatles. Even people who do not like them, or who were born years after they stopped making music, will be able to recognize their pictures or quote the lyrics of their well-known songs. The Beatles became famous in the early 1960s and broke up in 1970, and so they did not stay together for as long as many other bands like the Rolling Stones or U2. However, their influence on pop music and American society in general was enormous. Their innovations changed the way pop music was made, and their political and spiritual interests inspired many of their fans to follow them. At the same time, it is clear that the Beatles also absorbed influences from society and reflected them back out, amplifying them in the process. Although the Beatles will never reunite now that two of their members are dead, their influence is important even today, and they continue to sell many records. For these reasons, the Beatles changed American popular culture forever.참고 자료
