George Martin advances to the finals with a 5-2 win over Brian Epstein. He will face Pete Best who prevailed 5-1 over Stu Sutcliffe.
So who deserves the title of 5th Beatle the most?
George Martin or Pete Best?

Pete Best. I recognize Martin's contributions were huge, but he's my dad's age--he was never a "Beatle" but rather a contributor and collaborator WITH the band.
Pete had the membership card and knew the secret handshake...

He was part of the recordings ... played on the songs... and he was in the studio during the "real Beatles" fame. Pete was "a beatle once upon a time before they made it", but that was before they became THE BEATLES.

George Martin.
Pete Best was the fourth Beatle and was replaced by Ringo.
I guess if they carried on Billy Preston might have become the official 5th Beatle.

My vote goes to George Martin for pretty much the same reasons stated by JoeK.
That makes it 4-3 in favor of George Martin. I won't yet declare this vote over though!
