Take Home Question #1:
Who do you think is the 5th Beatle?  In a 1to 2 page essay, identify who you feel was the most essential person involved in the Beatles story (other than John, Paul, George and Ringo).  There is no correct answer for this question — its your job to think this out carefully and substantiate your answer, in detail.

Take Home Question #2:
