Honestly Sutcliffe was never really interesting in music as a long-term career
He was a talented painter and wanted to pursue that more
He had also become very involved and eventually engaged to Astrid Kirchherr, who he and the rest of The Beatles befriended in Hamburg
He was living with Kirchherr in Hamburg when he died at the age of twenty-one, only a year or two after leaving the Beatles, due to brain haemorrhage
