The Beatles in a sweet new clip shared by his son Giles Martin. Watch the video below.In the footage, shared on Twitter, the producer discusses how he initially met The Beatles and what he thought of the quartet when they travelled from Liverpool to London to meet him. “Well, that’s a silly name for a start,” he’s heard saying when he recounts being told about The Fab Four.He decided to give them a chance, commenting: “I met them in London and when I listened…it was ok but it wasn’t brilliant.

But the magic bit came when I started to get to know them because they were terribly good people.”He continued: “They were funny, they were very clever…and they were the kind of people that you liked to be with.

So I thought, ‘if I feel this way about them, other people will feel this way about them’. So therefore, they should be very popular.”I don’t normally share anything personal but this my dad from a while back explaining to my daughter he signed the Beatles.

Ordinary people do extraordinary things. Great decisions are made for the simplest reasons. “I figured if I like them this much other people might too” ❤️ pic.twitter.com/j4bf96b4zS— Giles Martin (@mashupmartin) January 19, 2022The late Beatles producer passed away on March 8 aged 90, and was laid to rest in a private family funeral in Wiltshire, shortly after.
