The Top Ten Things I dig about George Harrison...
1. " Taxman" one of the coolest rock songs ever written and recorded. George wrote it
although McCartney plays the solo.
2. His version of " Devil In Her Heart" is one of my favorites.
3. No one looked cooler holding a " Country Gentleman" Gretch guitar.
4. Cool acting sequence in " Hard Day's Night" where they think he's auditioning for a TV show.
5. Solo in " Something" one of history's best.
6. Sinatra said " Something" was one of the best love songs ever written. ( although mistakenly
credited it to Lennon / McCartney )
7. Played really well thought out solos. ( check out " All My Lovin' )
8. Cool 12 string playing. ( like the " Hard Day's Night" solo)
9. Cool appearance on the Smothers Brothers Show.
10. Although McCartney and Lennon wrote it, George's version of " I'm Happy
Just to Dance With You" defines early Beatle happiness. Dig?
