They needed to find a new manager after Brian Epstein died in 1966. Failing to do so their separation was inevitable. They needed a strong hand to tell John that Yoko wasn't welcome. They also needed to practice more. Another Brian Epstein might have done it. The White Album was cobbled together from pieces they had all written. Few actual songs were written. Although the album is a classic today I remember feeling let down by it. I felt that only the first record in the 2 record set was worth listening to. I also remember feeling "No.9" was complete garbage. It wasn't a song. It was the sounds of a car accident. I felt cheated. 😏

John wasn't the cause of the breakup. In the end they were all filthy rich and had no reason to be together anymore. 😆

They were getting bored with the same old routines - they wanted an outlet to express their own individual ideas. I think it was Paul who first talked about going their own way. He didn't waste much time getting his band Wings going.

Hi Answerbag service, do you work for Answerbag? If so I would like to say a few things to you if you don’t mind

It was Yoko who broke them up.

I'd say so. In the final years with The Beatles, John Lennon felt as if he was being held back or stifled in some way.

I don't know, maybe John Lennon was about to blow the whistle on something, the Beatles motto was much like Aliester Crowley's (33rd Freemason and CIA operative, theosophist) "Do What they Wilt." Crowley appeared on the cover, Hitler did as well, but he was in the final cover hidden, which points to MK ultra, because the Nazi's first created it. Then there was the whole conspiracy theory around there being more than one Paul, and that the original one died in a car accident when he was 24, hence George use to call Paul, Faul. Then the Paul is Dead on one of the albums when played backwards (an Aliester Crowley lesson), and a funeral depicted on the Sargent Pepper Album and Paul being the only facing backwards on the back, and also on the Abbey Road album, Paul walked without any shoes, which is the sign of a dead man, and of course Heather Mill's flipping out about knowing something about Paul, and fearing for her life, all a bit odd really, John's whole style changed when he left The Beatles. Ringo Starr when John was assassinated.
