Here are some memoranda re: interpretation of various issues arising under Capitol Records’ contracts with the Beatles. The relationships between the parties were unnecessarily complex and many of their disagreements arose primarily as a result of the loose contract standards and practices prevailing in the 1960s – early 1970s. The agreements did not envision, or incompletely envisioned, many of the developments that took place in the record business; and, the shifting arrangements between the members of the band. The more the parties tried to clarify or amend their agreements, the more contentious they became. These documents are for historical interest only.
