George Martin é o eterno “produtor dos Beatles”. Mas tanto antes quanto depois, ele produziu muitos artistas, em muitas músicas e discos de sucesso (e outros nem tanto). Martin tem no seu currículo 30 singles e 16 álbuns que alcançaram o número 1 nas paradas do Reino Unido – mais 23 singles e 19 álbums nos EUA. No total, mais do que alcançou com os próprios Beatles!
Veja aqui uma lista completa dos álbuns e singles produzidos pelo genial George Martin fora dos Beatles (incluindo Paul e Ringo em carreiras solo). No final, uma discografia do próprio Martin.
