Скачать или смотреть Episode 80: Fifth Beatle, assuming choice needed

Ever since the mid-1960s there has been a need to label someone other than John, etc. as virtually part of the decade’s greatest band. Mal Evans hooked up with his future employers pre-1964, sticking around even after untimely breakup though was unfortunately killed senselessly in ’76. Brian Epstein managed them until dying (exact reason or cause still unknown) when their camaraderie started coming apart. Focusing on creative progress laudable for sure yet in business he failed miserable; they likely would’ve dismissed “Eppy” once his contract expired shortly after that infamous day. George Martin deserves honour more as their faithful producer except for their last two albums—nowhere on second-last LP Abbey Road is he credited that way. Honourable mention obviously goes to poor Pete Best, drummer from 1960—62. Quite fabulous in their own right!
