This is hilarious! I love George Martin, and it is apparent whygeorge-martin his great humor is what first endeared him to The Beatles.

Sean Connery has nothing on our dear Mr. Martin.

It must be nice to be retired and drink martinis in the middle of the day.

Thanks for posting the video.

I adore this man. He definitely is a real GQ especially after watching that video. I want to watch this documentary now.

I was talking with a friend recently and I said if I became a famous musician, I would need to have George Martin as my producer. He would make my album glorious.

Can I hug him?

 

Edit: Jeff Beck, thank you for being cool and as Stephen Colbert once said “the original guitar hero”.

Well we all shine on like the moon, the stars, and the sun.

George Martin has the best British accent ever. No debate.

Sorry, Brian doesn’t stand a chance. Although Tony Blair’s is quite fine.

Actually there was an ongoing joke in a news show, that the only good thing about Blair is that you could understand his english very well a-hard-days-night-john-6

If you ask me, there was no fifth Beatle. However, if you ask me at gunpoint, I would definitely say GM. (Sorry Billy, sorry Brian… the only other “5th Beatles” I take seriously.) billy-preston_01_gifbrian-epstein
