Musical Interlude: The Beatles

"Free As a Bird". As we near the end of this countdown, we Beatles fans after the breakup were desperately hoping for new unreleased material, maybe some forgotten, overlooked classic. So these last two songs were special, but maybe didn't meet unrealistic expectations. Of course, whatever hopes we had of a Beatles reunion album died with John Lennon's murder. All four had decent solo success, but you have to wonder what might have been if Lennon and McCartney continued to bounce ideas off each other, how their music would have evolved.
