Well, reportedly it's been the case that at that time the Beatles were interested in signing the Mac for their Apple label, so it's not too surprising that the band was talked about in the fab four's circles. But as we all know now, in March '69 - when the Blue Horizon label deal had run out - they signed a contract with Immediate (originally intended for a 5-year term). That again was cut short in July with Apple Records being one of the contenders for the future Mac label. But in early August the band signed with Warner / Reprise . . . and the rest (as they say) is history.
