翻译：
自从摇滚乐出现以来的这50年间，没有任何一支乐队能像披头士一样成功。他们是第一支享誉全球的英国乐队，也正是这支乐队引发了英国音乐的热潮。
披头士于1960年成立。1964年他们到了美国，狂风般地席卷了整个美国乐坛。同年4月的第1个星期，披头士荣获全美最畅销歌曲的前5名。当6年后他们解散之际，披头士已经成为全球家喻户晓的名字。
时至今日，披头士的狂热依旧不减。今年4月，披头士手写稿“嘿！朱迪”以非常高的价钱售出。而且这首歌还在最近被投票评为百首流行歌曲中的第3名。

披头士乐队(the Beatles)是60年代(1960s)最风靡世界的英国乐队(a British band that took the music world by storm)。成员有Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison和Ringo Starr。他们以独特的音乐风格、长发和新潮服饰(characteristic musical flavor, long hair,and unique clothing style)使年轻人为之疯狂。词曲大部分出自麦卡尼和连侬(McCartney and Lennon were the major creative forces)，而披头士也成为日后其他摇滚乐队的先驱(the Beatles established the precedent for other rock groups to play their own music)。该团在1970年发行最后一张专辑"Let It Be"以后解散(disbanded after the release of their final album "Let ItBe")，然而，他们特殊的音乐风格给流行乐坛带来极为深远的影响(had a profound influence on the course of popular music)。
