Although John Lennon started making music when he was 15, after his mother bought him his first guitar, and he soon formed his first group, The Quarrymen, it took him another year before he finally jumped two feet into the world of songwriting.

The Quarrymen were formed towards the back-end of 1956 after Lennon decided he wanted to play in a skiffle group. However, they had no initial ambitions to write their own material and were content with covering other artists.

Once Paul McCartney joined the band the following year, things started to click into place, but they still didn’t have any original songs. Finally, this changed towards the end of 1957 as their writing partnership began to develop. While it was yet to flourish, progress was being made at breakneck speed.

Both McCartney and Lennon wrote their first songs individually around the same time, with the latter penning, ‘Hello Little Girl’, which went through a series of iterations before finally coming to light in 1995 as part of Anthology 1 by The Beatles.
