George Martin Said It Would've Been a 'Terrible Mistake' for The Beatles to Reunite
Beatles producer George Martin didn't want the band to reunite. He didn't think the band could call themselves The Beatles if they got back together.
Producer George Martin worked with The Beatles for years, seeing them at their highest and lowest points. Martin was well aware of fans wishing the band would reunite, and he would have benefited from a new Beatles album. Still, he didn’t think it was a good idea. He didn’t even think the reunited group could be considered The Beatles. Martin spoke about why he didn’t think the band should make more music.
Shortly after The Beatles broke up, fans began clamoring for a reunion. The band had left the door open for the possibility, noting in interviews that they thought they might get back together. Of course, while the individual members collaborated over the years, all four Beatles never played together again. Martin believed that this was for the best.
