And by now, the Beatles had split with their original manager, Alan Williams, who threatened to sue them over an unpaid share of their salary for a Hamburg residency that they booked themselves.
Managers don't like you going off on your own doing that.
But very clean, joked George.
And that was part of their charm, actually, at The Beatles.
They were always wisecracking, and the Americans loved that.
Anyway, they soon signed a deal, an important moment in the business story of Paul McCartney and the professionalisation of The Beatles, or at least it should have been.
And actually, it wouldn't have even been legal because if you were under 21 in the UK at that time, you needed a guardian to sign a deal like this.
John was the only Beatle at that time over 21.
Nonetheless, Brian started work and quickly started getting some results.
And although it had been a key part of their appeal to him personally, Brian also had them ditch their leather look and kitted them out in suits instead with their mop top hair, a smart suit.

Yeah, Love Me Do, the first single, was released in October 1962.
It charted at 17.
And from then on, it was only One Direction.
The follow-up single, Please Please Me, went to number two.
From Me To You hit number one, as did She Loves You, I Want To Hold Your Hand, Can't Buy Me Love, single after single after single in a record-breaking run that followed.
Yes, thank you.
Plus, the Beatles were selling literally millions of records that year.
