REVISION: I've removed the segment on The Beatles use of music videos. This is because it has now come to my attention that the first example of what we would today call a "music video" was actually most likely made by The Moody Blues two years before The Beatles made their music videos. Sorry for the misleading information!

The Beatles are often touted as "the greatest band of all time", but do they really deserve that title? Well, although their music is truly sensational, to really understand how the Beatles earned their near universal acclaim you need to know how these four boys from Liverpool changed the music industry forever.
