  • George Harrison was known as the "Quiet Beatle," but the final year of his life was anything but low-key. From playing guitar on his friends' albums to toiling away on a long-awaited solo project, Harrison was making music right up until the end.

    I recall an interview with Ringo....he was visiting with George who was clearly ill, and when Ringo was leaving him he explained that he had to go to Boston to be with his daughter who herself had a brain tumor. As I'll as he was, George asked Ringo if he needed George to accompany him. Ringo, obviously, gets choked up sharing this event. George was a special person and class act.

      @@bajorekjonI agree. Myself as a 20 year old, I think the day I'm going to pass is going to be a very relieving thing, in the sense that death isn't a frightening thing. It's the way you die that means something, and obviously you can die in all sorts of terrible ways, but death itself, I hope and think will be very peaceful and relieving. Maybe there's something on the other side, who knows.

    Harrison's solo work All Things Must Pass is one of my all-time fav albums (take on a desert Island, of course with electricity to be able to play). And he was called the quiet Beatle because when they hit America he was sick and was told not to talk much to save his voice

      Right? Plus the friend, whose house he passed away in, was actually Paul McCartney. I thought it was an interesting gloss-over considering it followed the clips with the remaining Beatles and a McCartney-specific clip.

    While My Guitar Gently Weeps was my favorite by George Harrison. A beautiful soul.
    I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
    While my guitar gently weeps
    I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
    Still, my guitar gently weeps
    I don't know why nobody told you
    How to unfold your love
    I don't know how someone controlled you
    They bought and sold you
    I look at the world and I notice it's turning
    While my guitar gently weeps
    With every mistake, we must surely be learning
    Still, my guitar gently weeps, yeah
    I don't know how you were diverted
    You were perverted, too
    I don't know how you were inverted
    No one alerted you
    I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping
    Why my guitar gently weeps
    (I look) look at you all
    Still, my guitar gently weeps

    George Harrison was one of the greatest artist ever and he will be sorely missed he was a fantastic songwriter and all of his albums are great and his time with the Beatles is fantastic especially when he wrote great songs like I need you emote and even a solo work like crackerbox palace my sweet lord give me love give me a kiss on earth when we was fab great songs. and I’m glad that George Harrison‘s friends gave a concert up in London the concert for Bangladesh.

    The quiet Beatle? Bollocks! - Q: -Who was the first rocker to explore Eastern spirituality, brokering what would come to be called "World Music?" A: George Harrison.
    Q: - Who spurred the Beatles to quit live performance and expand their sonic palette in the studio? A: George Harrison.
    Q: - Who awoke rock’s social conscience and invented the all-star charity event with the Concert for Bangladesh in 1971? A: - George Harrison
    His birthday Feb 25, 1943, and Robert Bigelow May 12, 1944, were twins separated at birth. This has not verified; The likeness of their appearance is notably similar, more so than George being "Quiet" in any way at all.
