The Beatles had immense success after their American debut on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, holding the top 5 spots on the Billboard charts that year with songs like "I Want to Hold Your Hand". Composed of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, their songwriting partnership between Lennon and McCartney created over 20 number 1 hits. This led to an intense period of Beatlemania among teenage fans in the 1960s. Rumors later circulated that Paul McCartney had died, as fans speculated about clues in their albums like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The Beatles officially broke up in 1970.

The job of the Supreme Court is to apply the Constitution, not to make public policy. That means that if they're doing their job, the specific outcomes of the decision shouldn't be a factor in their decision. That's why, sometimes, bad guys go free because the police violated a rule that protects all of us in we're accused of wrongdoing. Free speech can also be troublesome. It sounds a lot better in theory than it sometimes turns out in practice.

The beatles have had 6 members bassist stu sutcliffe (deceased)
1. The Beatles have had 6 members: Bassist Stu Sutcliffe
(deceased)
Drummer Pete Best (fired in 1962) and the best known line up
of
John Lennon, George Harrison (guitars); Paul McCartney
(bass)
and Ringo Starr (drums)
They performed and recorded together as The Beatles from
1960-1970
The remain the best selling group of all time- and by far, the
most
popular rock band ever with nearly 2.5 billion units sold.
THE MAN WHO GAVE AWAY THE BEATLES:
• Allan Williams -born 17 March 1930 in Bootle, Liverpool
is a former businessman and promoter of Welsh descent.
• In 1957. he leases a former watch repair building and turns
it into a coffee house called The Jacaranda,.
• Art college students John Lennon. Paul McCartney and Stu
Sutcliffe are frequent customers, and become friends with
Williams. EVentually, he hires Lennon and Sutcliffe to paint
murals in the shop. When he discovers they have formed a band
called The Beatles, he invites them to perform there in 1958,
2. after they are joined by George Harrison. The group worked for
over a year with fill in drummers often performing with no
drummer.
• In early 1960, Williams, who was by now the manager of the
band and securing gigs for them around the Liverpool area, and
in August of that year, finds them a drummer named Pete Best.
Best, auditions and joins. Now, a 5 piece- the Beatles start
gaining popularity in their town of Liverpool and in surrounding
towns.
• For nearly 2 years Williams booked the band wherever he
could, and days after finding Best, The Beatles start an
engagement at a club in Hamburg, Germany.
They would play there many times between then and August
1962. Initially they lived in squalor conditions in the storage
room of an X rated cinema owned by the club owner. During the
first visit, Harrison was only 17 and was deported for working
underage. They worked three main clubs: THE
KAISERKELLER CLUB
THE TOP TEN and the STAR CLUB.
• The following year, in late 1961, The Beatles had a falling out
with Williams
over a 10% commission for one of their return visits to
Hamburg. Furious over their refusal to pay- dropped The
Beatles like a hot potato. He never had business dealings with
them again. Shortly thereafter, Stucliffe fell in love with a
German girl and left to pursue his art career. He died of a brain
hemorrhage months later.
• McCartney takes over bass and adopts the famous Hofner
violin bass
3. in Germany.
INSERT PHOTO OF PAUL w/Hofner
Play soundbite of McCartney re: Hofner bass
• Decades later, Williams wrote a book about his experience in
1977 and both him and all the ex-Beatles spoke fondly of each
other. Paul McCartney describes Williams in ''The Beatles
Anthology'' as "a great guy." He also found a rare tape of a
Beatles show in Hamburg and released it as 'Live! at the Star-
Club in Hamburg, Germany; 1962'' in 1977.
• When the Beatles were later taken over by Manager Brian
Epstein he went to
Williams and asked if there were any contractual obligations.
Williams told Epstein,
"NO, but don't touch them with a f___ing 10 foot pole- they
will let you down."
• The Beatles made their first recording in Hamburg, backing
another British singer named Tony Sheridan. A couple of the
tracks featured only THE BEATLES, and in Germany the label
called them TONY SHERIDAN & THE BEAT BROTHERS. The
record which was a Top 5 hit in Germany, and had some
success in England was a rock version of MY BONNIE LIES
OVER THE OCEAN. The tracks The Beatles did with Sheridan
would later be released as THE BEATLES with Tony Sheridan,
and reach #26 on the Billboard chart in 1964.

THE MAN WHO BROUGHT THE BEATLES TO THE WORLD:
4. BRIAN EPSTEIN.
• Brian Epstein was the son of a man who owned a large,
successful chain of furniture stores in Liverpool. Next door was
a music store that sold everything from pianos to records called
the North End Rd Music Store, or NEMS as it was called.
The Epstein family took the store over and opened other NEMS
outlets around Liverpool. Brian had gone to acting school and
tried to be an actor, but failed and returned to the family
business. Brian's father, Harry, asked him to run NEMS.
Brian took to the music store like a fish to water, and greatly
expanded its record division.
• In Sept 1961, a customer came to NEMS and asked for MY
BONNIE. They did not have it. Then several young girls came
looking for it. Epstein found the record on Polydor (it had been
released in the UK) and bough several copies. They sold out. A
few weeks later, they played a day time show at THE CAVERN
club up the street from the NEMS store. After that he managed
the group. His long time assistant
Allister Taylor recalls:
http://www.brianepstein.com/voices/alistair-taylor.mp3
http://www.brianepstein.com/voices/alistair-taylor.mp3
• In the fall of 1961, Brian Epstein, who knew nothing about
artist management,
took them on.
• Epstein gradually groomed them, established the Beatle
haircut (from the German days) and put them in matching
5. suits.
••The Epstein style was revolutionary. Apart from the detailed
worksheets handed out each week, Brian also made sure that
monies due to his artists were dealt with quickly and efficiently.
When his groups were on tour they would arrive at hotels prior
to concerts and find their weekly 'wages' waiting for them, in
cash. Unlike many other managers he took care of all tax
matters. If an artist hadn't earned much in any week Epstein
would subsidize the payment to them and 'square up' during a
very good week
• Between 1961 and fall 1962, Epstein took them to dozens of
labels in London including including Columbia, Pye, Philips,
and Oriole. Everyone rejected them.
• Finally the group got an audition with DECCA RECORDS, the
German based label in London, who had released the Tony
Sheridan album. The audition was
set on Jan 1, 1962, and the Beatles performed 15 songs in one
hour, in a studio.
The Audition was recorded for review purposes. They were
auditioned by Decca producer Tony Meehan (ex-drummer of
the Shadows) and Decca president Dick Rowe.
Decca Records passes on Fab 4
• Eventually, Decca Records rejected The Beatles, saying that
"guitar groups are on the way out" and "the Beatles have no
future in show business"
• After The Beatles had a #1 Record on EMI, Rowe signed the
next beat group that came across his desk: THE ROLLING
STONES.
6. • After the Decca rejection, The Beatles started having some
distance with Pete Best- but he remained the drummer, for now.
• Epstein, convinced The Beatles could be stars ( and with their
local popularity soaring) continues to push until he gets a
second shot with EMI Records,
who had already passed on the group once.
The Deal George Martin made to get The Beatles to EMI
• Sir George Henry Martin CBE (born 3 January 1926) is an
English record producer, arranger, composer, conductor and
musician. He is sometimes referred to as "the Fifth Beatle"—a
title that he has described as "nonsense"
• He is considered one of the greatest record producers of all
time, with 30 number one hit singles in the UK and 23 number
one hits in the USA.
• He was a classical musician who worked for the BBC and was
hired in 1950 to orchestral arrangements at EMI. Then
promoted as assistant to the president of EMI"s secondary label,
Parlophone. He took over the label in 1955, but used it to
record mostly classical and for West End Musical soundtracks
• Martin was also delegated to producing comedy records,
which were very popular in the UK in the late 50s and early
60s. He worked with the likes of Peter Sellers and Dudley
Moore, who was part of a comedy troupe known as THE
GOONS.
• Martin was desperate to add a solid rock/ pop act that would
give Parlophone some legitimacy, Martin was introduced to
Epstein, whose enthusiasm for The Beatles was contagious.
7. Martin agreed to a record deal,sight unseen, but only with a
royalty rate of 1 penny per record (which had to be split 5 ways -
4 Beatles and Epstein).
• The Beatles auditioned for EMI on June 6, 1962. Martin was
impressed with their material but had reservations about Best
and wanted to use a session drummer.
The Beatles took this as their cue to fire Best. Best was fired
from the band and Ringo was brought in. (He had filed in for
Best when Best was sick and the Beatles decided to keep him).
• In July 1962, The Beatles began working with Martin in Sept
1962, with new drummer Ringo Starr. At the first session,
Martin asked the individual Beatles if there was anything they
personally did not like, to which George Harrison replied,
"Well, there's your tie, for a start." That was the turning point,
according to Smith, as John Lennon and Paul McCartney joined
in with jokes and comic wordplay that made Martin think that
he should sign them to a contract for their wit alone
• The first release on Parlophone was Love Me Do, released in
Nov 1962- it went to #17, which gave them the momentum to
keep recording and releasing singles. Next was Please Please
Me- which went straight to #1
• From 1963-1970 The Beatles dominate the entertainment
world. They are not only brilliant performers and artists, but
amazing songwriters. They spearhead the movement for artists
to write and record their own songs.
•Epstein failed to take advantage of the expiration of the
Beatles' original stingy contract with EMI for a full seventeen
months, allowing a ridiculous small royalty rate to remain intact
until the contract was renegotiated in November '66
8. •Never considered to be a great negotiator, Epstein's true
strengths were his well-developed organizational abilities, his
unflinching honesty, and his conservative, reliable stewardship
of the Beatles' finances. Later on, he is criticized by the ex-
Beatles and others for not having the vision to start the band's
own publishing company, whereby keeping 100% of the song
publishing. Back then, it simply wasn't done.
• The collaboration with George Martin is incredible. His
production and arrangements of their raw talent took it to
another level. The Lennon & McCartney song writing
partnership becomes competitive, causing each to write better
and better songs. (Pilato story about Ringo interview and A and
B sides)
• The Beatles swore they would never come to America until
they had #1 hit.
They had seen many successful acts in the UK come here and
fail miserably.
In Jan 1964, I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND is released on
Capitol Records
(after two failed singles on indie labels released in 1963) and
shoots to #1

in America.
The Deal Brian Epstein made with Ed Sullivan
Sullivan finds out about the Beatles when his plane is delayed
in London in 1963 because 10,000 screaming girls had turned
up at Heathrow to greet the Beatles upon their return from a
9. European tour.
Epstein, following the lead of Col. Parker books the Beatles for
3 shows on Ed Sullivan. Feb 9,16, 23. In between the Beatles
play a few east coast shows
and sell out Carnegie Hall.
The Beatles on Ed Sullivan show broke all TV ratings and
remains one of
the biggest audiences in TV history/. Percentage wise- it is still
the leader.

• After the Ed Sullivan appearances, The Beatles are
unstoppable.
They sell 15 million records in 1964, alone and command the
#1 - 5 spot on the Billboard chart in the same week!
• In 1965 and 1966 they are the first musical act to sell out a
stadium
Shea Stadium in NYC. For the First show, they receive
$189,000
for 22 minutes of music. Brian could have charged a lot more
for tickets to the Shea Stadium concert ($10), but he thought it
would be too much and be criticized as excessie

• Following The lead of Col Parker, Epstein realized a film
career could take the band to a whole new global level
• Brian Epstein, in a meeting with the producer of A Hard Day's
Night, stated that he wouldn't accept less than 7 1/2 % of the
income from the movie. United Artists had the figure of 25% as
a starting point for the deal negotiations. Walter Shenson later
volunteered to up the percentage to 20% after the movie was
successful.
• The film did over £1.5 million in its first week- an astonishing
box office
in 1964, and the soundtrack yielded several new #1 hits.
• The film was later purchased by MIRAMAX who re-released it
for the 40th Anniversary.
• Epstein made sure Beatle films would hold up, artistically,
unlike the
Elvis ones and snagged Dick Lester to direct.
THE BEATLES MERCHANDISE- MILLIONS GIVEN AWAY;
IN THE END-
BILLIONS MADE
• Epstein had no precedent for much of the Beatles success. By
11. 1965, over 80 million records had been sold. The cash coming
in was astronomical. He was smart enough to bring in good tax
accountants and make sure all taxes were paid, but many of his
deals were horribly biased against the Beatles.
•Brian hired David Jacobs as of his Solicitor in ’63. “From then
on all legal decisions and contracts would be made with David
Jacobs advice, and it was Jacobs’ law office that took over the
task of sorting out the merchandising offers”
•In early 1963 he negotiated a deal with Nicky Byrne's. A year
later, Once he starts selling millions in merch he realizes it is
bad deal.
• In early '64 Stramsact, who had the power to grant
merchandising licenses, granted a license to six young
Englishmen who incorporate a U.S. company, Seltaeb, to act as
their agent in America. Seltaeb the official merchandising
company, sold over 150 different items. NEMS received 10%
until August of '64 when it was raised to 46%
• IN 1964 the hotel where the Beatles stayed sold the pillow
cases and bedsheets from their beds to a group of businessmen.
They were cut up into 160,000 pieces and sold for $1.00 each.
• REMCO, a large American toy manufacturer, had initially
produced 100,000 Beatle dolls and had orders for 500,000 more
•Reliant Shirt Corporation paid $25,000 for the exclusive rights
to make and produce Beatle T-shirts. They purchased 3
factories just to make Beatle shirts
and in 3 days sold over 1 million shirts
• A factory in the US was set up to manufacture Beatle wigs.
Over 35,000
12. wigs were made per day in 1964.
• 40 Years after their break up, they remain the most
merchandised act in history. The brand has extended to
musicals, movies and Cirque DuSoil shows.
• A full merchandise and licensing effort began on 09 09 09

The launnch of BEATLES rock band video game; the Beatles
CD box set;
In Nov 2010- The launch of Beatles on iTUNES: • Historically
most artists have had a lack of understanding of the
merchandising and licensing process in the context of artwork,
trade shows, product approvals and so on. The Beatles 09-09-09
mexemplifies in many ways the fundamental shift in the
approach to music licensing and how sophisticated the business
has become. Apple Corps built an internal infrastructure
focused on the process of brand extensions and merchandising
and pioneered the approach of first establishing the artwork and
image bank and approval process.
• Beatles merchandise continues to sell today, under The
Beatles control
with Apple Corps., their company. A low estimate is that is
likely to bring in over $20 million a year for EACH of the 4
Beatles EVERY year.
•Peter Brown- Epstein's assistant, stated that Brian did not
want any of the Beatles to do personal endorsements for
anything, no matter how much money was offered.
• Pilato Discusses Ringo's deal with Canandaigua Wines.
13. THE FORMATION OF APPLE RECORDS
• After a horrible experience in The Philippines in 1966, the
Beatles decide to stop touring. Their last show is the COW
PALACE arena in San Francisco in August 1966. After a break-
they resume recording.
• They focus on songwriting and recording- creating the greatest
albums of their
career between 1966- 1970: Revolver; Sgt Peppers Lonely
Hearts Club Band;
Magical Mystery Tour; The White Album; Abbey Road and Let
It Be.
• The Beatles become one of the earliest acts to embrace the
recording studio as an instrument in and in itself.

• JUNE 1967 BEATLES RELEASE SGT PEPPER, considered
the greatest Rock
album of all time by many in the industry.

• IN 1967, during the making of Sgt Peppers they form Apple
Corps to oversee all their business. Epstein sets up the
company, but dies one month later in a fatal
mix of alcohol and prescription drugs.
14. • The Beatles are devastated and but forge ahead with Apple.
Apple Records is established in 1968 when the deal with EMI
expires. The Beatles negotiate a deal for EMI in the UK and
Capitol Records (their US division) in the USA to distribute
Apple in exchange for ownership of all the masters from 1963-
1968. The 4 Beatles sign to Apple individually and collectively
for 10 years.
• Apple is myriad of companies that includes a retail clothing
store; an electronics company making studio gear; the record
label; and a film company. Zapple Records is an off shoot that
features avante´garde projects.
• Between 1968 and 1973, The Beatles sign and release records
by a number of new artists including Mary Hopkin, Doris Troy,
Billy Preston, Badfinger , The Modern Jazz Quartet, and James
Taylor
• The First single on APPLE is Hey Jude in 1968, which runs a
full 7:20.
It is a smash #1 hit forcing radio stations to play
• The Beatles continued to record for Apple after they broke up
as solo artists
until the late 1970s.
What Really Broke Up The Beatles-
the fight over Allen Klein & MACLEN MUSIC.
• The Beatles did not break up because of Yoko Ono or Linda
Eastman,
15. although they probably didn't help. George Martin said it was
John
and Yoko's addiction of heroin that had more to do with it.
• In 1969, at the urging of Mick Jagger, The Beatles hired
hard-boiled NY manager Allen Klein (manager of Sam Cooke
and Phil Spector and recently The Stones). McCartney
is vehemently opposed to Klein and pushes for his new father
in law and brother in law Lee and John Eastman ( established
NY entertainment attorneys).
The other 3 Beatles outvote him and hire Klein.
• While the Beatles continue to work and record together
between
1968 and 1970, they over ride McCartney's decision to return
to
touring. And opt to make a film about the album making process
called LET IT BE. After the filming, Klein brings in Phil
Spector
(a noted 60s producer known for his WALL OF SOUND
recordings)
to re-mix and produce the soundtrack album. This causes a huge
fight between McCartney and other Beatles.
• During this period, The Beatles let Apple slip into total chaos.
16. Most artists leave, and all but the label is shut down
• During this period, Lennon loses interest in The Beatles and
wants to focus on his projects with Yoko. PR stunts like the Bed
In for Peace and the Naked
2 VIrgins solo album cover cause problems for the other
Beatles.
• The final straw happens when ATV music publishing, who
owns
MacLen music, the Beatles publishing arm becomes a publicly
traded stock.
McCartney on the advice of Lee Eastman buys as many shares
of MacLen
music as he can. He does this without telling Lennon. When
Lennon
finds out he blows up and threatens to quit the Beatles.
• McCartney pleads with him to calm down and not make any
announcement.
There would be no need to break up- just take a breather.
Lennon agrees,
and 6 months later, McCartney surprises the other 3 by
announcing he has
left The Beatles.
• The band dissolves in April 1970, and pursues solo careers.
17. Still, they
continue to work on each other's solo projects and by the time
of Lennon's
death in 1980, most diffferences are resolved.
Beatles business: Still making money,
50 years on

The Beatles earned a total of $10,000 from three performances
on “The Ed
Sullivan Show” in 1964. A month before the 50th anniversary of
their debut
on the show, theyʼre still making millions.
They could have gotten more for even a single performance on
the popular
television show back, but their manager, Brian Epstein,
18. negotiated a lower
sum for top billing and increased exposure.
He was right. The Beatles were the headliners for each program
and got a
massive TV audience—including a then-record 73 million
viewers for their
historic U.S. TV debut on Feb. 9, 1964.
That kind of thinking, combined with a relentless drive and vast
musical
history, has kept the Beatles brand making money half a century
after John,
Paul, George and Ringo took America by storm.
“Their financial impact today is bigger than any other artist,
living or
deceased,” said David Fiorenza, a Villanova University
economics professor
who specializes in art and entertainment.
“The surviving members and the groupʼs holding company
continue to
search avenues that werenʼt available to them in the mid-
1960s,” he said.
“Theyʼve always been on the cutting edge.”
19. The business legacy of the Beatles started immediately, said
John Covach,
a rock historian who teaches a Beatles course at the University
of
Rochester.
“The Gretsch and Rickenbacker guitars they used on Sullivan
just flew off
the shelves the next day,” he said. “Kids wanted to be like them,
from the
instruments to the haircuts.”
Thereʼs no question that Beatles music sells.
As of this year, the Beatles have sold 600 million albums
worldwide—with
177 million sold in the U.S. alone, according to the Recording
Industry
Association of America. Elvis Presley is second in the U.S.,
with 135 million
sold.
The group once held the top five spots on Billboard 100—in
April 1964—an
achievement thatʼs likely to remain unmatched. They made $25
million in
earnings that year, which translates to almost $188 million
20. today.

Apple Corps, the Beatles holding company controlled by Paul
McCartney,
Ringo Starr and the estates of John Lennon and George
Harrison, continues
to push out products.
In 1995, there was the release of the “Beatles Anthology”
documentary,
along with the book and CD. A compilation of No. 1 hit singles
from the U.S.
and U.K. was released as an album in 2000—and went to the top
of the
charts. It became the best-selling album from 2000 to 2010.
Other deals include the “Beatles Rock Band” music video game,
released in
2009—with multimillion sales—as well as the ongoing show
“Love,” which
features Beatles music and performances by Cirque du Soleil in
Las Vegas.
The TV show “Mad Men” paid about $250,000 for the rights to
use the
Lennon-McCartney song “Tomorrow Never Knows” in an
21. episode in 2012.
Also in 2012, after years of squabbles with Apple Inc. over
naming and
music rights (the Beatles formed their company in 1968 for tax
advantages;
the computer company was founded in 1976), the group finally
allowed their
music to be sold on iTunes.
Thereʼs more repacking of Beatle albums in the works.

“Itʼs remarkable for a band that stopped recording in 1970, they
still have
such interest,” said Darrin Duber-Smith, a marketing professor
at
Metropolitan State University of Denver.
He said that what has helped the Fab Fourʼs staying power is
being a first
mover. In marketing terms, that means they were the first in
their category
and came to symbolize a significant moment in time.
“They represent the British musical invasion and the change in
music that
22. came with it,” he said. “Weʼve had other moments, like with
Pearl Jam and
Kurt Cobain, but nothing like the Beatles did for their time.
They were a
transformative band, and that has longevity.”

Of course, Yoko Ono aside, the business side of things helped
end the
Beatlesʼ recording career.The death of Epstein in 1967 from a
prescription
drug overdose sent the group, by their own admission, into a
business
tailspin.
The resulting bickering over managing their financial affairs
kept the band
members battling each other into the mid-1970s. It reached a
point where
Apple Corps, once listed on the London Stock Exchange in the
1960s,
nearly dissolved in 1975. But it was kept on to manage the
business aspect
of the Beatles recording library.
23. It turned out well, as Apple Corps ranked second in 2010 on
Fast Company
magazineʼs list of the worldʼs most innovative companies in the
music
industry.
Rumors of a Beatles reunion—and there were many—ended
suddenly with
Lennonʼs murder in 1980. Twenty-one years later, George
Harrison died of
cancer. But both continue to sell records, with Lennonʼs estate
taking in
some $12 million in 2011 and Harrisonʼs $6 million that year.
McCartney and Starr still tour and make music headlines. Both
are
scheduled to appear on the Grammy Awards on Sunday and will
tape a
concert to help mark the 50th anniversary of their Sullivan
performances.
Starrʼs worth is listed at around $300 million, making him the
worldʼs richest
drummer. McCartney is said to have a net worth of $800
million.
There could be more money ahead for him and the Lennon
24. estate in 2018.
Thatʼs when full rights to the Lennon-McCartney song catalog
revert back
to the songwriters. Lennon and McCartney have received a
percentage of
royalties over the last decades. Singer Michael Jackson outbid
McCartney
in 1985 for the rights—paying nearly $50 million for them.
Jackson later
sold half-rights to Sony for $95 million.
‘When was the bubble going to burst?ʼ
Interest in the Beatles only seems to grow.
“Weʼre having a Beatle specialty events the weekend of the
anniversary of
their stay here,” said George Cozonis, managing director of The
Plaza,
where the Beatles stayed for their first Sullivan appearance.
“They became
part of The Plazaʼs history. We expect it to be packed.”
(Clarification:The Plaza said on Friday Feb 7, that it is not
holding any
special events over the weekend but will mark the anniversary
with a special
25. cocktail program.)
Covach said more than 20,000 people have registered for his
next course
on the Beatles. “Itʼs incredible how people canʼt get enough of
them,” he
said.
The Beatles themselves were circumspect about their longevity,
according
to Larry Kane, a former news anchor in Philadelphia and
reporter who
covered the Beatles on their U.S. tours in 1964 and 1965.
“It was always a big question for them—when was the bubble
going to
burst,” said Kane, who has written three books about the band.
“I donʼt
think they had any idea it would go on like this.”
(Read more: Business lessons from rapper 50 Centʼs playbook)
But there was one among them who did.
“I asked Brian Epstein in 1964 how long it would last,” Kane
added. “He
said, ‘Larry, the children of the 21st century will be listening to
the Beatles.ʼ
26. He was right.”
