The Beatles On Record (Part 1)
In part one, George Martin talks about the virtually unknown group from Liverpool (soon to be the Beatles), and how he eventually led them into the Abby Road Studios in London to record their first single, "Love Me Do," which went on the charts in just two days.
"They weren't great, but there was something about them that was worth investigating," said George Martins when being asked about his first impressions of the band.
The band recorded their next single, "Please Please Me," which became the Beatles' first #1. Because the Beatles' singles started to look so good, Martins told the band to record every song they had, and they created the album Please Please Me, released in January 1968.
Question:
What do you think would've happened to the Beatles if George Martins did not see something special in them, and start recording with them? How do you think it would have impacted their rise to stardom over the next few years?

If George Martins didn't see something special in the Beatles i think that it would have made the Beatles journey to fame and success much slower. I think that they would still reach a lot of success because of their exceptional talent.
