      No he didn't. He was fumbling and struggling throughout and the singer had two difficult tasks:
      1. To maintain her timing while he fiddled and
      2. To compete with his volume and him taking over the performance to be the centre of attention.
      She did an excellent job with Harrison's classic - despite May.
      Frankly, if he left the musicians to their job and played bass it would have been far better and allowed the singer's beautiful performance to shine.
      Still what can one expect from this old fashioned prima donna? Time he was tucked up in an old people's home: he was dressed for bed anyway...

    George Harrison wrote some beautiful songs and Ringo Starr also wrote some good songs .
    I remember hearing Joe Cocker sing I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends That was such an incredible performance . And so many can sing Yellow Submarine which my learned colleague has just informed me that Ringo didn't write 😲 too and I love Octopuses Garden , there is a kind of charm to Ringo's works .
    I personally think My Guitar Gently Weeps and All Things Must Pass are amongst George Harrison's finest songs and for me Here Comes The Sun will always remind me of how I felt after the winter of 1962 /63 .

    • @oshawaxpress
