Who was the beatles music producer?

Answer 1

For the band's original songs, most of the writing was done by either John Lennon or Paul McCartney (or the two of them together). However, George Harrison wrote some of their most popular songs as well ("Something" and "Here Comes the Sun", for example), and even Ringo Starr wrote a couple on his own ("Don't Pass Me By" and "Octopus's Garden").

Answer 2

Dick James, a singer who turned to music publishing, signed the Beatles to a five-year publishing contract in 1963. He created Northern Songs, a company to publish their music, and supervised it through his own Dick James Music. Northern Songs later became a publicly-traded company, with James, his partner Charlie Silver, Brian Epstein, and The Beatles as shareholders. A related company, Maclen Music, was their American publisher. Lennon and McCartney renewed their contract in 1968, while Harrison and Starr began their own publishing companies. James and Silver later sold their Northern Songs shares to ATV (Associated TeleVision), who became majority shareholders in the company in 1969. Lennon and McCartney sold their stake in the company.
