Beatles Without George Martin?

The point of this thread is simple:

The older I get and the more I learn about the Beatles, the more I revere George Martin. I've become convinced that Martin wove the common thread of musicality through those very different individuals. In fact, his talent in some ways clearly exceeded theirs.

A man of musical genius no doubt.

Opinions? Trivial tidbits? Let's hear 'em!

Ed had quite a show.

You could watch The Beatles, a talking mouse (Topo Gigio), guys throwing bowling pins around, Ethyl Merman, and Woody Allen in one hour.

Ah the good old days. :-)

I agree that the British Invasion was the result of the Beatles success in the US. All the other British bands made it after them and there were no British bands popular in the US before them. Seems rather obvious.
