Sir George Henry Martin (born 3 January 1926) is an English recording producer, arranger, composer, conductor, audioengineer and musician. He is often referred to as “The Fifth Beatle” due to his long involvement in being the recording producer for The Beatles *cough*Best Band Ever*cough.* George was knighted on 6/15/1996. At the age of six his interest in music started with the piano. At eight, he persuaded his parents to buy him lessons. However, he only had eight due to arguments with his mother and the teacher. Hence, he taught himself how to playthe piano. George Martin wasfirst informed of The Beatles by Brian Epstein, who was managing a band named Decca, who... weren’t doing so well. George arranged to meet Epstein on 13 February 1962. He thought Decca’s recordings were “unpromising” but he did think well about John Lennon and Paul McCartney’s vocals.
