Paul McCartney Said John Lennon Went on Vacation With The Beatles' Manager to Assert ...
Paul McCartney and John Lennon were behind many of The Beatles’ hits. Though the pair often worked together and the band didn’t have a clear leader, they vied for a modicum of control over the group. McCartney believed that early in their years as a band, Lennon took a trip with the band’s manager as a way to establish himself as the leader.
In the early 1960s, Epstein was working in the music department of his family’s store when he heard about The Beatles. Curious about the group that so many people had recommended to him, he went to see a live performance. Though the act wasn’t very polished — they ate and drank on stage — he saw their potential.
“I was immediately struck by their music, their beat and their sense of humor on stage,” he said, per Biography. “And even afterward, when I met them, I was struck again by their personal charm and it was there that it all started.”
