Both George Martin and Brian Epstein saw (and heard) something in four working-class Liverpudlians, something they knew had the potential to reach far and wide. You just can't explain that alchemy.

/RIP, George. I'll play "All You Need Is Love" in remembrance.

At the rate he's going, George R. R. Martin will be 90 before he writes another GoT book!
