NOTE: This photograph comes from the Raj Prem Collection.

John Lennon with Sir George Henry Martin in studio. Martin is sometimes referred to as "the Fifth Beatle" - a title that he owes to his work as producer or co-producer of all of The Beatles' original records, as well as playing piano on some of their tracks.

In recognition of his services to the music industry and popular culture, Martin was made a Knight in 1996.
