John while a part of the Beatles in their Hamburg years.

It's amazing how much the Beatle's image changed in about two years. They went from greased hair like Elvis and leather jackets to neat suits and the mop top. He was probably the one Beatle who didn't like the image that they later produced. Obviously, he was going to do whatever it took for them to be on the pop music scene's radar, but I think that he thought later that he wrote impersonal songs that were very surface level. Eventually, they would break the mop top image along with their happy, fake songs (which I definitely like by the way) and move into more meaningful songs. But they would never again attempt to go back to this very 50's style stage.
