Malcolm Frederick Evans Wiki: Salary, Married, Wedding, Spouse, Family

Malcolm Frederick "Mal" Evans (27 May 1935 – 5 January 1976) was best known as the road manager, assistant, and a friend of the Beatles.In the early 1960s, Evans was employed as a telephone engineer, and also worked part-time as a bouncer at the Cavern Club. The Beatles' manager, Brian Epstein, later hired Evans as the group's assistant road manager, in tandem with Neil Aspinall. Peter Brown (one of Epstein's staff) later wrote that Evans was "a kindly, but menacing-looking young man". Evans contributed to recordings, and appeared in some of the films the group made. After The Beatles stopped touring in 1966, Evans carried on assisting them until their break-up in 1970. From 1969, Evans also found work as a record producer (most notably with Badfinger's top 10 hit "No Matter What").Evans was killed by police on 5 January 1976, at his home in Los Angeles. Officers were called when his girlfriend phoned the police and told them that Evans was confused and had a gun. The police believed that the air rifle Evans was holding was a rifle and shot him dead.

#Quote
1I would get requests from the four of them to do six different things at one time and it was always a case of relying on instinct and experience in awarding priorities. They used to be right sods for the first few days until they realised that everything was going to go smoothly and they could get into the routine of recording... Then I would find time between numerous cups of tea and salad sandwiches and baked beans on toast to listen to the recording in the control room. (On The Beatles) --from his diary at the time of Magical Mystery Tour (1967)
#Fact
1On the song "A Day in the Life" from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Mal is the one heard counting out the timing on the 24-bar orchestral build up.
2He was cremated after his death, and his ashes shipped back to England... becoming lost in the mail enroute. John Lennon's wry comment when he heard the news was that Mal likely "wound up in the Dead Letter Department." His ashes were eventually located, and given to his family.
3He continued his association with the former Beatles after he left Apple, including time spent with John Lennon and May Pang during their sojourn in Los Angeles.
4Nearly fired several times during his first week with the Beatles, for making beginner's mistakes, including setting up Ringo's cymbals at the wrong height and losing one of John's acoustic guitars.
5One of his jobs for the Beatles was faking their signatures for autographed photos, side-by-side with Neil Aspinall; the demand for them was just too great for the band to take the time.
6Contributed some lyrics to Paul McCartney's "Fixing A Hole", for the Sgt. Pepper album; Paul gave him a cash payment instead of a songwriting credit.
7Daughter Julie, born 1966
8Son Gary, born 1961.
9Mal and his wife were estranged from 1973 up to his death in 1976
10Has written an autobiography, "Living with the Beatles Legend" which remains unpublished.
11Mal discovered Badfinger and signed them a record deal with Apple, the Beatles' record company. Mal was an executive of Apple until he was sacked by Allen Klein in 1970
12Played on some Beatle songs - a Hammond organ for "You Won't See Me"; chorus in "Yellow Submarine" and "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)"; Bass harmonium on "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!"; a piano for "A Day in the Life"; a tambourine of "Dear Prudence"; trumpet for "Helter Skelter"; an anvil on "Maxwell's Silver Hammer".
13Worked as a telecommunications engineer before becoming the Beatles' road manager.
14Was a bouncer of the Cavern Club where the Beatles played at until Brian Epstein offered him a job as a road manager for the Beatles.
15Depressed over the breakup of his marriage, Evans locked himself in his bedroom with an air pistol. His live-in girlfriend called the police, who shot him several times when he refused to drop the gun. He died instantly.
16Former road manager / bodyguard for the Beatles. Known as "Big" Mal Evans.
