	In the immediate aftermath of the Beatles' break-up, a time when he made many angry utterances, John Lennon trivialised Martin's importance to the Beatles' music. In his 1970 interview with [[Jann Wenner]], Lennon said, "[<nowiki/>[[Dick James]]] is another one of those people, who think they made us. They didn't. I'd like to hear Dick James' music and I'd like to hear George Martin's music, please, just play me some."<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://imaginepeace.com/archives/4385\|title=The Rolling Stone ~~Interview:~~ John Lennon (text and podcast)\|publisher=Imaginepeace.com\|date=18 May 2014\|access-date=30 July 2014}}</ref>		In the immediate aftermath of the Beatles' break-up, a time when he made many angry utterances, John Lennon trivialised Martin's importance to the Beatles' music.

	In a 1971 letter to Paul McCartney, Lennon wrote, "When people ask me questions about 'What did George Martin really do for you?,' I have only one answer, 'What does he do now?'
