King of Skiffle was created on 2000-04-11.

It's not clear that Lennon particularly liked skiffle music, but skiffle music was quite easy to play and could be played with cheap instruments - a typical skiffle band was guitar, soapbox bass (made from a wooden box, a broom handle and some string) and a washboard. Because it was so cheap, many skiffle groups started up in the late 1950s. Lennon's band was one of these.

Scotsman, Lonnie Donnegan

skiffle is a type of music. Usually home made instruments, with a jazz sort of sound. and boom, im guessing is just a reference to the time it came around, like baby boomers.

Lonnie Donegan went by The King of Skiffle.

They began as the Quarry Men, a skiffle group playing folk music, and sometimes Country & Western songs. Skiffle died out after awhile, but rock-n-roll had become popular. They changed styles to keep up.

John started this skiffle group in March of 1957.

He loved music, and when the skiffle music craze started in England, John became caught up in it and started his own group. Skiffle was a very primitive type of rock music, with only guitar and drums, if a drummer could be found.

Like many teenagers in the late 1950s, they were inspired by Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly and by the Scottish singer Lonnie Donegan who introduced skiffle music to the UK. Skiffle could be played with largely home made instruments; washboard, tea-chest bass and guitar and thousands of bands started up.

In 1957, Ringo co-founded a band, the Eddie Clayton Skiffle Group, with his friend, Eddie Miles.

Aged sixteen, singer and guitarist John Lennon formed the skiffle group The Quarrymen with some Liverpool schoolfriends.

They were influenced by skiffle and American Rock and Roll.

Prior to the Beatles, George was in a skiffle group called "The Rebels".

After the Beatles, he was a member of the Traveling Wilbury's.

George, along with Eric Clapton, Dave Mason and others, became the backing band for Delaney&Bonnie when they toured the UK.

To prevent your skiffle board from spinning uncontrollably, ensure that your weight is evenly distributed on both sides of the board when throwing it. Adjust your stance and throwing technique to provide a more balanced flight trajectory. Additionally, you may need to experiment with different throwing angles and strengths to achieve a straighter and more stable flight path.

There was a craze in Britain in the late 1950s, called "skiffle"; amateurs played folk music on homemade instruments, or whatever they could get. Lennon and his friend Peter Shotton started such a group, and named it after their high school (Quarry Bank Grammar School), hoping to get to play at school events. Lennon and another boy played guitar, Shotton played washboard (stroking it for an elementary rhythm), and other friends played banjo, tea-chest bass, and drums. Paul McCartney joined that group the next year, and George Harrison followed later. When skiffle died out, they changed to playing rock-n-roll.

At the time, Paul and John were in a skiffle band called The Quarrymen. An enthusiastic guitarist, George had repeatedly asked to play in the band, but John had always denied him, insisting that he was too young. On one occasion, however, George did sit in for the band's guitarist, who was sick.

In the days of the Quarrymen, Bill Smith played what was called a tea chest bass, quite standard for skiffle groups. Unhappy that Smith performed at only two shows and rarely turned up for rehearsals, Lennon decided that he should be replaced by his friend Len Garry, "borrowing" Smith's bass in the process. When the choice of music changed from skiffle to rock and roll, the group had no bass player until Lennon urged his art college friend, Stu Sutcliffe, to buy a bass and join the band. Sutcliffe's bass playing was rudimentary and he often turned his back to the audience to hide his inadequacy as a musician. When Sutcliffe left the Beatles, Paul McCartney took over the role as the group's bassist.

On July 6, 1957, teenagers John Lennon and Paul McCartney met at a church garden fete at St. Peter's in Liverpool, England. John was there with his skiffle group, the Quarrymen. Paul played Eddie Cochran's "Twenty Flight Rock," which impressed John and prompted him to invite Paul to join his group.

Not always, no. Before joining what became The Beatles, Ringo was the drummer in another band called Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, which was a skiffle group out of Liverpool. At the time, Pete Best was still The Beatles' drummer. Both bands played gigs together, and at times when Best missed shows, Ringo would fill in. He was eventually asked to join the band.

Lennon started a skiffle group in Liverpool in1956 that was very briefly called the Blackjacks, but changed the name to The Quarrymen before any public performances. After Lennon recruited his art school pal Stuart Sutcliffe to the group, they tried the name the Silver Beetles and other variations, before finally settling on The Beatles in August 1960 when they first performed in Hamburg.
