Controversies & The Fall:
In Year 1966 'Beatles' entered into controversy, when they unintentionally snubbed first lady 'Imelda Marcos' of Philippines during a tour. "The Beatles" were somehow able to save their lives during the tour. Same year "The Beatles" entered into another controversy because of the comments made by "John Lennon" towards Christianity.
In year 1968 "The Beatles" visited their Guru "Maharishi Mahesh Yogi" at his Ashram in Rishikesh, India. This visit was also full of controversies.....At the end of their three months stay, "The Beatles" were unsatisfied because of the mismatch between their expectations and the reality at the Ashram........Divisions and dissent had started to drive the group apart. 'Ringo Starr' quit the band for a period, leaving 'Paul McCartney' to perform drums on several tracks.
During the period of 1969-70, "The Beatles" starting falling apart on various issues related to finance. "The Beatles" recorded their final album, 'Abbey Road' in the summer of 1969. The completion of the song "I Want You" for the album on 20 August 1969, was the last time all four Beatles were together in the same studio.
"John Lennon" announced his departure to the rest of the group on 20 September 1969. This was followed by "Paul McCartney's" publicly announced his departure on 10 April 1970. After this all members of the band pursued their individual music careers. "John Lennon" was was shot and killed on "8 December 1980" in New-York City......Others members are still active.
