The ignorance of some people

Have you seen the stable of musicians he assembled under his banner - He managed the Merseybeat scene.

With a little help from his friends like Bill Harry, Bob Wooler, Sam Leach, Alan Williams who hosted, promoted and reported on local shows.
Agreed, Ged. Brian Epstein was himself a star on the local music scene and not just because he managed the Beatles. As Steven said, he helped a lot of struggling musicians to stardom, not just the ones he managed.
