We remember George Martin, the man behind The Beatles (1926-2016)

George Martin was born on this day in 1926.  

Martin was the perfect choice for a band like The Beatles.   He encouraged experimentation in the studio.   He listened to their ideas and then arranged them into songs like "Yesterday" and "A day in the life".

Martin died at age 90.   He produced 13 LPs and 22 singles for The Beatles.   He also produced some of Paul McCartney's solo albums in the 1980’s.  All together, his name was on 700 records, from classical to jazz to pop.
