I woke up in the middle of the night – which happens quite often these days – and read the news that George Martin had just died at 90.
There are going to be a lot of philosophically waxing epitaphs written about his contributions to music, as well there should be, but I’m going to keep it short and to the point:
If not for George Martin, I wouldn’t be who I am today. And not just as a musician/engineer/poet…I mean as a man. His contribution to my life cannot be measured, certainly not by a blog post on a mastering company’s website.
We all talk about changing the world. George Martin actually did.
He was brilliant and talented and humble. We should all strive to be the person he was.
Thank you, Sir George Martin. Rest In Peace.
I believe your first recording session with the Angelic Choir is later today…
Very nicely done, Ish ~ in memory of Sir George, are you ready now to change the world…?:^v
