| In 1968 the Beatles launched their very own record label, “Apple Corps Records”. The name “Apple Corps” itself was supposed to be a bit of an injoke [Apple “core”]. Paul said it was named something simple and that would be easy to remember - “A is for Apple”. The Granny Smith variety apple was chosen as the record’s logo, which was inspired from a painting by René Magritte that Paul had. There is a picture of this painting in the informative Paul McCartney biography “Many Years From Now” by Barry Miles. The company was formed as a way to give young, up and coming artists an opportunity they may not find elsewhere. Or to quote a Lennonism, “So a person can come in here and make a record without having to go on his knees in somebody’s office, probably yours.” In true, grand Beatle-style, they launched their label with a real “Doozy” of a debut 45 in “Hey Jude”. It would be their biggest selling single. Their debut LP would be the equally impressive “The Beatles” aka The White album which many fab fans regard as their favorite LP. |
