Who is Pete Best?

Randolph Peter Best, known professionally by his fans as Pete Best was born on November 24th of 1941 in Chennai, India. His biological father was a marine engineer who died during World War II. While training to become a doctor in the Red Cross, Pete’s mother met Johnny Best, who was a commissioned officer serving in India. The pair subsequently got married in 1944, and in 1945 Pete sailed with them to Liverpool. It was the last troopship to leave India. They then lived in West Derby for a time. A family legend claims that Pete’s mother then pawned all her jewelry to place a bet on a horse named Never Say Die, which subsequently won the Epsom Derby at 33 to 1 odds.The money allowed the family to purchase a large Victorian home on an acre of land in Liverpool. This large cellar was later developed into the Casbah Coffee Club, where a band called The Quarrymen played music. This band included early Beatles members John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison. They were able to play at the club as a reward for helping Pete’s mother paint the walls. Eventually, Pete decided he wanted to pursue a music career, and his mother purchased a drum kit for him. He then formed his band called the Black Jacks, and this band took over from the Quarrymen at the Casbah Coffee Club after the latter had canceled their residency.
