A true loss for the world.....a man who really made the Beatles THE BEATLES....a producer of such genius who not only allowed a little rock band from Liverpool grow and experiment...but encouraged it.....most producers find a formula that works and wont deviate....where as Sir George said " ok boys show me what ya got".....I cant imagine a world without the Beatles and if not for George Martin, they may have been just another band from the 60's who had a few hits then vanished......
Thank you Sir George for being the architect of the soundtrack of my life....
RIP

Several "Beatles" related facts were mentioned on the news reports this morning. Sir George convinced the group to replace the drummer, so that it was Ringo who became the famous fourth member of the "Beatles". Also, in the recording of "Yesterday", he suggested the use of strings in the orchestration.

Apparently he started out producing comedy records, and he probably produced this one :
