The Album That Has All 4 Beatles Members After Their Breakup

The breakup of The Beatles stands as a defining moment in rock history, leaving fans to wonder about what could have been. Despite their split, the legendary bandmates found ways to reconnect musically from time to time. Surprisingly, there is one solo album that includes contributions from all four members after they went their separate ways.

After The Beatles disbanded, each member embarked on a solo career, driven apart by creative differences and the management controversies involving Allen Klein. Yet, the pull to collaborate never entirely faded.

Solo Ventures and Brief Reunions

John Lennon kicked off his solo career with the album Plastic Ono Band, featuring Ringo Starr on drums and bassist Klaus Voormann, creating a fresh yet familiar trio. Later, Lennon collaborated with George Harrison on his Imagine album, although Paul McCartney was noticeably missing due to their strained relationship at the time.

McCartney focused on his solo journey with his wife, Linda, producing acclaimed albums like RAM and later forming Wings. While he thrived on new collaborations, McCartney seldom worked with his former bandmates, with only a few occasions involving Starr in the 1980s.

George Harrison also flourished as a solo artist, delivering hits like “My Sweet Lord” and the critically acclaimed All Things Must Pass. This album featured several tracks born from informal jam sessions with the other Beatles, highlighting their undeniable musical synergy.

The Only Album to Feature All Four Beatles

Ringo Starr, known for his laid-back style, continued to charm fans with his music. His album Ringo holds a special place in Beatles history as the only solo work to feature all four former bandmates. Harrison lent his guitar to the hit “Photograph,” Lennon co-wrote and sang on “I’m the Greatest,” and McCartney arranged and played piano on “Six O’Clock,” even adding a playful kazoo solo on “You’re Sixteen You’re Beautiful (And You’re Mine).”
