BOSTON (CBS) - Pete Best is "the man who put the beat into the Beatles." For more than two years, Best was the drummer for the Beatles, until the group decided to go in a different direction in 1962. Despite being dismissed from the group for reasons unknown, Best has continued to pursue his love of music and has spent more than fifty years living the life of a rock star. Tune in to hear his stories of playing with John, George, Paul, and Stuart (the Hamburg years).
