Epstein and Martin

12/10/2012

Brian Epstein dies of an overdose. The lack of control caused by this sets into motion a downward spiral that would eventually cause the Beatles to turn on each other, effectively ending the band.

Epstein gets the Beatles their first record contract with a company called EMI. He also

has a roll in the introduction of Ringo to the

band.

George Martin produces "Love Me Do," which

gets to number 17 on the charts. The Beatles then begged him to produce "Please Please

Me," which became their first number 1.

Brian Epstein begins his management of the Beatles. His first influence is, strangely enough, their dress code. Prior to his arrival they wore leather jackets and jeans; Epstein introduced the suits.

Brian enlists George Martin a year later to help with the Beatles' sound. They turn from rough recordings to more polished work.

Under Epstein the Beatles grow into a

phenomena. They achieve international

success and tour America for the first

time in early 1964.

Martin continues to produce the Beatles

records. He handles most of the orchestral

elements to the songs. Producing the

Beatles records gives him high demand

as a producer.

While the Beatles popularity grows, Epstein increases his influence and their profit. Merchandise becomes popular under Epstein's watch. He also serves as a skillful promoter.

Martin becomes a busy man with all of the work offers he gets. During the sessions for the White

Album, he was so busy with other bands that the Beatles had to do a lot of the mixing themselves. Martin would continue to work with members of the band even after its disintegration.
