George never understood how important his voice, music, - indeed, his presence - was to those of us who got him. Sure I loved the Beatles. Yes John Lennon. But he was the secret. He was that harmony between Paul's incredible range and John's powerful voice. He was always 'the man' to me. I play guitar, and have a small reputation as an aggressive hard rock/punk guy. But George was always my hero. He's been gone (it'll be) 22 years this coming November. That's how long my heart's been broken by his passing. I hope he's still hangin 'round when I get there.

Another lousy birthday, but worse, it was announced on early morning TV news that George Harrison died. I went into a BR stall and cried. Big tough guy who was drafted and did a tour as a Army Ranger (LRRP). So, I said, screw my trip and fly off to visit my favorite person on earth. Not my loving wife of 30 years or my mom of 50 years, who had her hands full with me growing up, but to see my grandmother. She lit up like a harvest moon seeing me. It was a perfect idea, and sadly not many more to come. She died shortly thereafter at 100. George always had a special place in my heart too. I think of that day often.

It's so good to see genuine, true, musicians playing and singing. Something the current generation somehow doesn't seem to crave.

Never knew that George & Paul got an opportunity to play together! Boy do they sound sweet together ❤️

Saw it

I remember watching this on TV when it aired for the very first time "Live", and thinking it was the greatest musical moment in TV history, save for The Beatles debut itself on Ed Sullivan. Now 44 years later, I realize that I was correct.

CELEBRATE George and his beautiful songwriting with HERE COMES THE SUN ... 2024 hang on to your hats, take care, People!!

It was the summer of 1970 when this song came out in the States. I was living in Berkeley CA, better known as Beserk-ly back then. We would gather on our flat rooftop four stories up with a killer view of San Francisco beyond and crank out Here Comes The Sun. Ah, thank you George for your genius. Peace on the world, please.

Holy crap, two geniuses for the price of one! You can tell they loved singing each other's songs and the guitar playing, solid.

Two of the finest musicians/songwriters of our time. Together. How great is this?

wrong...completely wrong...ignorance trumps truth yet again...

The Beatles get together to record the songs for Abbey Road. George says "I got this song called Here Comes The Sun". Rest of the band "You got anything else?" George "I have a song called Something." Yeah, but he couldn't write songs. On arguably the best rock record every recorded, George has the two best songs on it.

Paul said that it was clear to him and John that George was peaking during those last couple of years of the bands existence. He denied that he could have achieved greatness without John George and Ringo, and that he was incredibly lucky. The interviewer was incredulous. Paul replied, "how many times do four guys like that get together and you are one of them?" Well, the answer is one time.

check their spotify plays - Here Comes the Sun is the most played, with over 200 MILLION plays MORE than all the other songs, sitting at 600,000 plays. Come Together is the second highest, sitting at 385 Million approx. Suck on that Lennon.

Harrison had the best guitar and voice of all Beatles.

This is iconic. Timeless artists, what a cool colaboration. Hearing George Harrison sing Homeward Bound with his gentle and melifluous voice is so poetically heartening and brilliant. I love this

"Here Comes the Sun" is such a truly beautiful song. Homeward Bound is so poetic. I think George and Paul wrote from the same place in their souls.

The final few notes that George played to homeward bound was magical
