Beatles pay tribute to Beatles Anthology producer Chips Chipperfield

Chips Chipperfield, who produced the Beatles Anthology and won a 1996 Grammy Award (along with Neil Aspinall, Bob Smeaton, Geoff Wonfor and The Beatles for Best Long Form Music Video for the project), and also produced documentaries on Paul McCartney ("Liverpool Oratorio" from PBS' "Great Performances", "Put It There"), Jimi Hendrix ("Hendrix: Band of Gypsies"), the Pet Shop Boys, Elizabeth Taylor and The Who, has died after a heart attack suffered Tuesday in Ireland, reports musicweek.com.

The Beatles issued the following statement on their website:

Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Chips Chipperfield, who has sadly passed away. Chips was the Grammy award winning producer of the Beatles Anthology, and a long serving member of the Apple Corps family. Warm, wise and kind, he was loved and respected by all those who worked with him. His youthful spirit and enthusiasm for life will continue to be an inspiration to all those who knew him.

He will be dearly missed by all of us.
