At first Pete tried to equal the Beatles' success by forming his own band to capitalise on his status as "the hottest musical free agent of all time" (Billboard). Unfortunately, his backing band left much to be desired. For example, the bass player was the corpse of Stuart Sutcliffe propped up on a couple of sticks. Public interest dwindled, and poor Pete was reduced to releasing covers of Beatles songs, such as his critically acclaimed With No Help At All From My Friends. The album Pete! was Best's first success. The title track reached #403 in Albania.
