MARTIN GUITARS WIKI

‘Guitar groups are on the way out’ to ‘Gentlemen you have just recorded your first number 1?
Any comments?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Decca_audition
After their first meeting George Martin said ‘Is there anything you dont like’ to which George H retorted ‘well. I dont like your tie for a start’
George Martin listened to the Beatles play Please Please Me as a slow ballad and told them to speed it all up
In a very strange way I actully feel sorry for whichever Decca Manager made the decision, and there was a lot of evidence to back up his claim. The following were the Number 1 UK singles for 1961, and not exactly Rock’n'Roll with screaming Guitars were they?
