The Fifth Beatle : Phrases
Meaning:
Reference to the four Beatles + an unknown fifth person.
Example:
Origin:
The Fifth Beatle moniker was not given to Brian Epstein by Murray the K, though Epstein is always in the list of deserving honorees (along with Pete Best, George Martin, and even Billy Preston, the only musician ever given individual credit on a Beatles disk). It was Murray who was dubbed the Fifth Beatle by George Harrison on the train ride from New York to the band's first concert in Washington D.C. Murray was the last in line as the group made its way through the train cars, and a cop tried to stop him from following. Harrison turned as said, It's alright. He's the fifth Beatle. Thanks to Peter Altschuler.
