In 1963 the first band I heard was The Beatles. I Want to Hold Your Hand was the first song I learned. "My Guitar Gently Weeps", is just a song that makes me feel so glad to be a part of this Universe. Wow! These guys changed our musical lives forever.

One of the miracles of the Beatles is they didn't just write "love songs," they wrote of love on the cosmic scale—as here.
And with all their mystery and spiritualism, they still captured a massive popular audience. Unparalleled.

George's most outstanding contribution to the Beatles.

Pink Floyd (Time), followed by Beethoven (Symphony #5), then The Beatles (While My Guitar Gently Weeps). Love hearing the masters all in a row like this. Where, besides RP, can one hear that line up?

Don't remember if it is a first for me, but is DEFINITELY three 10s in a row—all BRILLIANT. And Bill is brilliant to do it! |

George Harrison by ~Ailive ©2008-2010 ~Ailive
The lovely George Harrison  Took apx. 8 hours, it actually was fairly quick, except for the hair. Used graphite on the whole bit. Listened to a LOT of George's music during the creation of this  For you true Beatles fans, this is from the cover of "Let it Be"

I agree, Jeff Healey is not in the RP libary. I wonder if any one has tried an upload to RP? |

George is looked upon as the "other Beatles" or "less talented Beatles", "third leg" If you count up his hit songs, both with the Mop Top and solo, it's a really impressive body of work. Not bad for the "other Beatles"

I was struck by the thought that you couldn't pick more diverse people: Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Dhani Harrison, and Prince...and what they share is the sheer joy of playing music...in this case George Harrison's masterpiece IMHO. How wondeful is it that music can bring us all together like this? RP does it every day.
