His greatest song!
I have always loved this fan created video with the girl in yellow Dancing.
Thanks for posting it.
March 12, 1969 : London police conduct drug raid at home of George Harrison
Love the song, LOVE the video!
To answer the question, life is what you make of it.
Sometime look at the Concert For George with the all star (and Starr,too) cast a year after his death.
So many great songs all at one concert that day. Let’s people learn about his underappreciated talent.
Sad one more than ever is Photograph written by Ringo and him but now with a different meaning as Ringo said, because my precious wife died a year ago Feb.26th and all I have are memories-—and photographs-—but she “won’t be coming back any more.”
all I have are memories-—and photographs
😞
To quote a bandmate’s of George’s song:
Everytime I see your face
It reminds me of the places we used to go
But all I’ve got is a photograph
And I realize you’re not coming back anymore

The story to this girl and her dance routine is heart lifting. The Harrison family sponsored her performance. They remain friends to this day.
He used Badfinger to back him up during this period.
Odd video. Not sure why they chose a military cemetery as a setting.
Bttt
And that looks like Golden Gate Nat’l Cemetery in Daly City.
Thanks, FRiend.
Despite not having a very strong vocal range, George was splendid when harmonizing with Paul and John, particularly Paul. Paul’s singing tended to head for the rafters at times, especially during background vocals and definitely during live performances. Yet when Paul and George were singing background (typically on a single mic), the result was much better than Paul solo.
I heard "Crackerbox Palace" (1977) recently and that sounds pretty good as well.
My older brother who passed a couple of years ago was a big Beatles fan. This was one of his favorites - Old Brown Shoe.

George went on to play with all the best musicians. Had a happy marriage nice son
He would have people over to the house. Everyone was handed a ukulele and they’d all play. Eric idles account.
He put together All Things Must Pass with this what Is life also beware of darkness Behind that locked door.
It was he who wrote ‘something in the way’
He put together the traveling wilburys per Jeff Lynne.
He was not poor. Happy with a healthy realistic view of his place in the Beatles and in the music world
Oh ya. Everyone reading this thread please watch princes tribute at that event on while my guitar gently weeps. Stick with it to the end.
