Too many Giants leaving us....

Wow. That is a big man. Contributed hugely to pop music. What a great synthesis he made with his classical/traditional training, clashing against The Beatles break-all-the-rules creativity. RIP.

2016 has been a devastating year of loss for music fans.

I hope he got some residuals from those arrangements as he sure deserved them.

I can't help but think that without George Martin, the Beatles might actually have been the Rutles.

[Structo]

Yep, he definitely gets credit for their sound, unlike Phil Spector, who was insane.

The application of logical rational thought to a blistering creative output created something much larger than the sum of the two parts.
