George Harrison met Paul McCartney around the age of 14 while attending school at the Liverpool Institute for Boys. George started a skiffle group with classmates and was asked by Paul to join The Quarrymen, the band Paul started with John Lennon.
Paul McCartney's relationship with John Lennon was complicated, with periods of tension and rivalry. McCartney has mentioned in interviews that there were times when he and Lennon clashed creatively and personally. However, it is important to note that the dynamics within The Beatles were multifaceted, and while there were disagreements and conflicts, the members also shared deep bonds and mutual respect for each other's talents.
Paul McCartney attended the Liverpool Institute High School for Boys, which is now known as the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. He showed an early interest in music during his time there and later formed his first band, The Quarrymen, while still a student.
While John Lennon and George Harrison collaborated on several songs during their time with The Beatles, Lennon did not specifically write songs for Harrison. However, Lennon did contribute to Harrison's songwriting process and offered support and ideas. Harrison's solo work also reflects influences from his time with Lennon and The Beatles, but each artist primarily wrote their own material.
Stuart Sutcliffe, John Lennon's classmate in art school, was the original bass guitarist for the Beatles. (He was not a great musician, and was there mostly for "image".) He left to because he became engaged to the Beatles' German photographer friend, Astrid Kirchherr, and died a few months later of a brain hemorrhage at age 21. Tommy Moore was the first drummer to play with the Beatles, once they had chosen that name. He quit after a few weeks. Pete Best joined them for their first Hamburg booking, and stayed with the band two years. He was replaced in 1962 by Ringo Starr. Jimmy Nicol substituted for Starr for 10 days during the 1964 Australian tour, while Starr had a tonsillectomy and recovered from it. He was never considered for permanent membership. John Lennon's original band the Quarrymen, which Paul McCartney and George Harrison had initially joined, regrouped in the 1990s, played shows and made some recordings. Pete Shotton, Lennon's boyhood friend who had started the Quarrymen with him, also performed with them. And John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, of course.

He always did. "I've Just Seen A Face" and other Beatles songs were staples of his 1970s tours.
John Lennon was sometimes considered the first Beatle, or the 'Main Beatle' or whatever you would like to call it. Before the true 'Beatles' were formed, John formed a band he called the Quarrymen. It consisted of 5 members: John, Paul, George, Pete Best, and Stu Sutcliffe. Stu left while they were in Germany, and Pete was fired! Then John found Ringo and thus was born The Beatles! He sang the most songs out of them all, actually 103 of their songs, while McCartney only 84. Lennon played guitar, piano, sang (of course) harmonica, and probably many more! After they broke up, he released an album with his wife, Yoko Ono which I believe was called 'The Plastic Ono Band'. A few years later they had a son, Sean Lennon, and John left his music career for five years to take care of his son and actually be a father. When he finally came back to his music, John released some albums, and in 1980, very sadly, he was shot one night 5 times in the back. He died around 10:30 that night.
Well first off. Two of the original Bealtes, George Harrison and John Lennon, are dead. :( Furthermore.. Ringo Starr primarily creates his own music with his own band while Paul McCartney is continuing to play Beatles songs with his own cover band. So roughly.. no they don't still play.
