The LA Times reports that Martin N. "Marty" Bandier, the top exec at the music publishing company that owns the John Lennon-Paul McCartney copyrights, has said he liked the idea of a dedicated Beatles edition of Guitar Hero.

Following the news that Activision has announced that Aerosmith would be the first act with a dedicated version of Guitar Hero, Bandier is quoted as saying:

"It's something we have talked about and something I'd like to pursue", said the chairman and chief executive at Sony/ATV Music Publishing.

The recent rumours that the Beatles back catalogue would soon be going digital and heading to iTunes were debunked by various sources, so this could be one way for Fab Four fans to enjoy the music in a 21st century style.
