MALCOLM EVANS
Died: 1976
Often referred to as the 'gentle giant', Evans was working as a bouncer at the Cavern Club when Brian Epstein offered him a job hauling equipment for the Beatles in 1963. He can be seen doing the same job, to Paul's piano accompaniment, during the opening of the film Let It Be (1970). Later in the film, he pounds an anvil to the beat of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer". He also appears briefly in Help! (1965), Magical Mystery Tour (1967) and the 1967 promotional film for Hello, Goodbye.
When the band stopped touring, Evans became a personal assistant and later an Apple executive. He is said to have contributed lyrics to "Fixing A Hole" and also discovered Apple recording artists Badfinger and produced their hit single "No Matter What".
