How The Spark Began: Archival interviews from John Lennon and Paul McCartney detail the exact moment music took over their lives in 1950s Liverpool. Lennon recalls analyzing records by Elvis Presley, Little Richard, and Chuck Berry, learning his first song on guitar (Ain't That a Shame) with help from his mother Julia despite family warnings that guitars wouldn't make money. Meanwhile, McCartney shares the iconic story of returning the trumpet his father bought him to get a guitar instead, realizing he couldn't sing while playing a horn.
