The Beatles pioneered so much in the recording studio during their short time together that it's easy to forget that they formed their own record company in April 1968. Their business plan: to find and fund new musical talent. By the end of the year Apple had signed James Taylor and struck lucky with Mary Hopkin. The much-admired Badfinger followed, along with albums by obvious associates (Billy Preston, Ravi Shankar, Yoko Ono) and not-so-obvious (John Tavener, Modern Jazz Quartet, Radha Krishna Temple) with mixed financial and artistic success. Apple Of My Eye revisits each of the albums and singles released by Apple between 1968 and 1975, underpinned by the business and legal context of the last days of the world's greatest band.
