The White Album was called "The Beatles," and early pressings of the album had the original titled embossed in the lower right section.
The fifth Beatle was bassist Stu Sutcliffe, who left the group in 1961 to stay in Germany with his girlfriend, Astrid Kirchner. Astrid was the one who took the early classic black and white photos of the Beatles in Germany, and she suggested the Beatle haircut. Stu died not long after leaving the group of a brian hemmorrhage.
Although Pete Best was the drummer when the Beatles recorded back-up for singer Tony Sheridan's "My Bonnie," it happened after Stu's death.
Richard Starkey.
You got me on the last one. I do not recognize any of those names. Part of my own rules for this smackdown challenge state that I CAN NOT look up any of these answers; all the answers must come from my memory. Therefore, without looking them up, I don't know them.
Good questions, all.
