6The Beatles
The Beatles were dropped by their first record label.
Could you imagine that one of the biggest legends of music industry were once told that they have no future in showbusiness? When I heard that, the only thing that came through my mind was: Who was that fool?
After recording fifteen tracks for the now infamous Decca Audition, the Beatles were told that “guitar groups are on their way out” and “the Beatles have no future in show business.”
Decca instead chose a group called the Tremoloes, who were local and would not cost as much money. This ill-fated decision is widely considered to be one of the biggest mistakes in music history!
Huge mistake Decca Audition. The joke is on you!
