Sony/ATV would "like to pursue" Beatles Guitar Hero
Published on
Martin Bandier - CEO at Sony/ATV Music Publishing, the holder of the John Lennon-Paul McCartney music copyrights - has said that he's interested in releasing a Beatles-specific version of Guitar Hero with Activision.
"It's something we have talked about and something I'd like to pursue," he said.
The company's attitude to the Beatles catalogue has become more relaxed of late, with American Idol being allowed to run shows focused solely on Beatles tracks for the first time in recent weeks.
Bandier's comments come after the recent announcement of the first "band" version of Acitvision's gigantic rhythm action franchise in Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.
Just a hunch, but we suspect John Lennon may be spinning in his grave.
