Thirty years ago, Paul McCartney released his first solo album, creatively titled McCartney. Inside the album was a self-interview by McCartney that confirmed what many Beatles fans dreaded - that the Beatles had broken up. The Beatles never got back together again, unless one counts the songs "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love" made for the Beatles Anthology in 1995. These combined the voice of John Lennon - recorded on tape before his death - with that of Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison. The question that has been asked many times is, "What if the Beatles had gotten back together?" A better question might be, "What if the Beatles had never existed at all?" Wildlife decided to pose that question to the students. In particular, we wanted to know how music would have been different had the Beatles never existed.
