In 1956 he started the Blackjacks (soon to be the Quarrymen). In 1957 he met Paul after a mutual friend (Ivan Vaughan) introduced them. Paul introduced George Harrison in 1958. By 1959 early members of the Quarrymen left the group and they were calling themselves Johnny & the Moondogs. By 1960 they flip-flopped between the names The Beatles, the Silver Beatles and back again. In August of 1962 they recruited Ringo Starr (formally a member of Rory Storm & the Hurricanes) as drummer. Soon after they were considered the top band in Liverpool and the rest is history.
