“The Beatles, the symbol of the British influence on the global music industry and the catalyst of what came to be known as ‘the British Years,’ are no longer a group,” reported the April 18, 1970,, citing a McCartney statement issued by the band’s Apple label. Below that front-page story ran an ad for Ike & Tina Turner’s new single, a cover of “Come Together,” that testified to the breadth of The Beatles’ influence.
“A spokesman for Apple Corps Ltd. said that any individual Beatle cannot offer his services, appear alone, or with any person in any branch of the entertainment industry without the consent of Apple Corps. Ltd., and the other Beatles,” reported the April 25, 1970,that the group’s contract covers “all recorded performances, not only by the group as a whole but by any of its individual members.
Some “tragedy.” Before the first Beatles albums arrived on CD, the manager of a Tampa, Fla., music store toldthat customers were “signing up for all four disks” in advance, according to the Feb. 21, 1987, issue. When they arrived, a March 14headline declared that 1987 “Looks Like ’64 In Beatles’ CD Chart Surge,” as the group’s first four albums all scored top 10 debuts on the now-defunct Top Compact Disks chart.
