I like how he says how he thinks he's becoming redundant. This was late 65, just before they started Revolver. He must have really enjoyed that development and suddenly having lots more to do.

But, wow, listening to him it's bizarre that someone like that would become a pop producer. It's the fact that he was such a gentleman and so removed from that whole scene that allowed him to look objectively at the music and take it to a higher level. A typical "pop" producer probably never would have got the same results out of The Beatles. I mean, when they started in June 1962 they had a crap drummer, terrible equipment and no good songs. George Martin is the "schoolmaster" guy who upped their game and made them get their act together. Without him, they might never have written all those great songs, or at least never realised them in the same way. To me, late 62-early 63 was the balancing point at which they were either going to be great or fail. He made sure it was the former.
