Martin directs Sgt Pepper
GEORGE MARTIN, who came to fame as producer of the Beatles, has been named as musical director for the Sergeant Pepper film.
Martin, who produced the original “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” album, will be responsible for the film’s soundtrack LP, which will also feature music from the Beatles’ “Abbey Road.” The soundtrack will be a double-album.
Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees have already been cast for roles in the movie, which will be filmed in Holland this summer.
Martin also produced the “Beatles At The Hollywood Bowl” live album which is in the shops this week.

The Beatles Diary Volume 2: After The Break-Up 1970-2001
"An updated edition of the best-seller. The story of what happened to the band members, their families and friends after the 1970 break-up is brought right up to date. A fascinating and meticulous piece of Beatles scholarship."
We owe a lot to Keith Badman for the creation of those pages, but you really have to buy this book to get all the details - a day to day chronology of what happened to the four Beatles after the break-up and how their stories intertwined together!
The Beatles - The Dream is Over: Off The Record 2
This edition of the book compiles more outrageous opinions and unrehearsed interviews from the former Beatles and the people who surrounded them. Keith Badman unearths a treasury of Beatles sound bites and points-of-view, taken from the post break up years. Includes insights from Yoko Ono, Linda McCartney, Barbara Bach and many more.
