| | Epstein attempted to make suggestions about their music - such as the type of songs to perform at their Decca recording audition - which was taking his brier too far. | | | Brian had noticed the members of local groups who came into NEMS to listen to new releases in the record booths and often chatted to people like Gerry Marsden to ask them about their choice of repertoire. | | | Brian might have given up control of the Beatles in the early stages of his management. |

| | Arguably Epstein's commitment and imaginative management were as crucial to the Beatles' success as their music and collective personality. | | | Epstein formed NEMS Enterprises in June 1962 to administer the Beatles' affairs and soon acquired a stable of pop groups including Gerry and the Pacemakers and Cilla Black. | | | In 1959, Epstein was involved with the family music business, Northern England Music Stores (NEMS). |

| | Brian Epstein: Business |
| | Brian was possibly the first modern manager to understand that this was not the way to promote longevity and had an instinctive trust of the Beatles' own understanding of pop culture. | | | This was wonderful news for the Beatles, since Brian had negotiated a deal for the Beatles that had not reflected their enormous box-office potential. | | | •Brian proposed that Decca record the Beatles that would be exclusive to Brian. |

| | Brian was very doting and protective of the Beatles but how protective were the Beatles of Brian? | | | The Beatles' relationship with Brian was always a complex blend of management, business, and friendship; and in their harried life-schedules it was easy to ignore Brian's private life. | | | IMHO the Beatles were ambivalent about Brian's sexuality. |

| | Not that Brian was controlling in an unhealthy way (like Mimi and Yoko were, methinks), but he did manage the lives of the Beatles and they trusted and loved him, John especially. | | | I can understand why Brian didn't want people to see it -- unfortunately, his control of the show was mandated by the time he had listened to bad contractual advice on merchandising and distribution of the boys' image, and he only retained this type of control in the UK. | | | In the beginning, nobody but Brian saw the talent for exactly what it was, and knew what he had to do, and suffered through what he had to endure from them to bring that talent to the world. |
