"Every
aspect of what they put out there just became so attractive to
people who encountered it, whether it was in the 60s, (when) it was
all new, or later generations interfacing with that material, and
still being dazzled by all the aspects of it. Not just the music,
but the evolving style that they had. Again, as Brian Epstein said
so beautifully, he was overwhelmed by their personal charm.
Everybody is overwhelmed by The Beatles’ personal charm.
Everybody."
