  • He looks and sounds a lot like his dad. It's like a younger version of George Martin. Just like George Harrison's son.

    Giles Martin sounds amazingly like his father, Jimmy takes the interview seriously and, being a musician, asks significant and astute questions that would interest people (apart from the harmless silliness with Drake).  This is the closest I've seen to Jimmy imitating Johnny Carson or Jack Paar, and as much as it will probably be forgotten, I think it's one of his better interviews.
  • The Beatles would say Paul would spend hours with samples from home splicing and looping with George Martin, so rare to have so many geniuses working together in one band. Amazing work they themselves would not be able to reproduce even if they wanted to.

    It's incredible how much Giles is like his dad.... same mannerisms and his voice! Sounds and acts so much like his dad. What a great man Sir George Martin was.
  • Thank God George Martin saw their charm and wit on the day they met, despite Harrison's dislike of his tie.
  • @danhope77
    Once I had a chat with Giles: a very nice and humble guy.
  • @rdanielr93
    Giles Martin’s remixes are amazing, and much needed
  • @ZValenT
    George Martins son is so like him
  • @joe6096
    Giles is the keeper and the future of the holy grail of music. He's 51 or 52 now. From Love Me Do in 1963 to The End in 1970, those tapes of those 240 or so of the world's greatest songbook in between are in his hands.
  • Wow - is that George ? He looks and sound exactly like his Dad .... incredible
  • @Rippd_Bagel
    Ordered a Vinyl version of Sgt. Peppers' Band of Lonely Hearts and received it in the mail yesterday. Can't wait to play it!!!
  • @manguy2000
    Adding Drake to St Pepper album is sacrilege
  • Sir George Martin, Legend and all round classy guy. This is the first interview I've seen with Giles Martin and he seemed very impressive, a chip off the old block.
  • @jackg8893
    So he just re produced Sergeant Pepper and it's now number one on the charts? Nice
