Any discussion of The Beatles & Entrepreneurship that does not mention Brian Epstein will have completely missed the most important point.

One that also fails to mention Apple and Neil Aspinall clearly has no point. Unless, maybe, it was discussing HandMade Films.

As sambeau said, there's no mention of Epstein, nor is there a mention of George Martin. The production values he brought added a nuanced yet immeasurable quality to their output.

Perhaps another lesson is no matter how awesome your raw product is, you can improve things by delegating to specialists.

Interestingly, though, Epstein was really not a business specialist, and lost the Beatles millions.
