Denis O’Dell, who was a producer of some of The Beatles’ most famous films, has died at his home in Spain.
Mr O’Dell is survived by his second wife Dona O’Dell, his daughter Denise, who is also a film producer, his son Arran, who is a pilot, and his children Shaun and Laragh.
Mr O’Dell passed away at his house in Almeria where he had lived for 40 years, his daughter Denise O’Dell confirmed.
A couple of times, the song mentions a Denis O’Bell, a lyric that was taken to be inspired by the film producer.
