One of my favorite 60's band is Beatles but I don't actually know that they have what they call the fifth Beatle. Name is Stuart Fergusson Victor Sutcliffe or known as Stuart Sutcliffe, born June 23,1940 at Edinburgh, Scotland, died April 10,1962 at Hamburg, Germany. Cause of death is cerebral hemorrhage.

He left The Beatles to pursue his sense of artistry 8 months after meeting Astrid Kirchherr during their play at Hamburg.
