    all of the Beatles were born before the baby boom

    They're the silent generation and unfortunately they didn't live up to their generation's name

      I value your input, but want to highlight that the generational cohorts we create don't follow the cutoffs by years (even though some defining features are within them). It is true that they aren't completely grounded in the boomer generation, however if you look at the chart:

      They were actually part of the last rise before the Boomers came to be and thus (and in their predatory nature targeting the Boomer women) the sociological experiences of the Boomers aren't that far related. Though they might've experienced at least some bombing during their childhood and lived with rationing for a couple of years.
