In Seasons 1 -3 we uncover the story of how one of the thousands of amateur schoolboy skiffle bands evolved into the beginnings of the greatest band in popular history. In Season 4 we take a look at the stories of The Forgotten Beatles - the often-overlooked artists who at one point shared the stage or the studio with The Beatles.Megrin Entertainment Música
