Their best-known lineup , consisting of John Lennon , Paul McCartney , George Harrison , and Ringo Starr , became considered by many as the greatest and most influential act of the rock era . Rooted in « skiffle » and 1950s rock and roll , the Beatles later utilised several genres , ranging from pop ballads to psychedelic rock , often incorporating classical elements in innovative ways . In the early 1960s, their enormous popularity first emerged as " Beatlemania ", but as their songwriting grew in sophistication , they came to be perceived by fans and cultural observers as an embodiment of the ideals shared by the era's sociocultural revolutions .

John Lenon Lennon was born in war-time England , on 9 October 1940 at Liverpool Maternity Hospital to Julia ( née Stanley ) and Alfred Lennon , a merchant seaman of Irish descent , who was away at the time of his son's birth . His parents named him John Winston Lennon after his paternal grandfather , John " Jack " Lennon , and then-Prime Minister Winston Churchill . His father was often away from home but sent regular pay cheques to 9 Newcastle Road , Liverpool , where Lennon lived with his mother , but the cheques stopped when he went absent without leave in February 1944. When he eventually came home six months later , he offered to look after the family , but Julia — by then pregnant with another man's child — rejected the idea . After her sister , Mimi Smith , twice complained to Liverpool's Social Services , Julia handed the care of Lennon over to her . In July 1946 Lennon's father visited Smith and took his son to Blackpool , secretly intending to emigrate to New Zealand with him . Julia followed them — with her partner at the time , ' Bobby ' Dykins — and after a heated argument his father forced the five-year-old to choose between them . Lennon twice chose his father , but as his mother walked away , he began to cry and followed her . It would be 20 years before he had contact with his father again .
