The band is still regarded as the most influential one. But the remarkable success they achieved didn’t happen overnight. They faced their share of numerous failures throughout their journey.

But however the whole things didn’t go well but instead of losing hope, they were determined to put in more effort.

On New Year’s Eve in 1961, the group drove in a snowstorm to Decca Recording Studios to lay down 15 tracks based on songs that they were already performing. And this was the major breakthrough in their career.
