[@gal00li]

had the pleasure of meeting George in Liverpool 1969 (Delaney and Bonnie tour) and walked and talked with him..he was a very honest & humble man ...the best 3 minutes of my life ..

Earnest and honest. Just what I expect from George! Thanks for posting this interview. Always a pleasure. xx

[@georgesgirl]

This is so wonderful... Thank you so much... I miss him

[@shelleywantiez7964]

The smartest and humblest Beatle. George was do patient and understanding. He deserved all the success he received post Beatles. Miss George!

[@mrsbluesky8415]

I love it when I see a “new” George interview. Ty !

[@aslinfirmin212]

Bless you George.

[@beat-maker7361]

Wooow, George echoed my favorite John Lennon quote. When Lennon was asked about a Neil young lyric saying it's better to burn out than fade away. Lennon said he "hated it". "Better to fade away like an old soldier than burn out. I don't value the worship of dead Sid Vicious of Jim Morrison. It's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive." It's such a tragic comment because Lennon is precisely lionized for dying young, while McCartney is often ridiculed for his longevity. Pretty heart warming to see geroge Harrison express the same thing

george is beautiful

[@innerlight617]

"i like to be on e of the backroom boys.."Love him so much. His music,his personality,his voice.. He was really a very special man.

[@mtreed55]

Great interview! I miss George.

[@JulianLennon1]

My favourite expression George said was, "Still a lot of 17 year olds standing down by the front door. I can't understand it." Love

[@romber58]

We (maybe older) fans of the Fabs are grateful to you,Easternbird and the like for digging up gems like this and sharing...The Beatles went everywhere,even when they split up and thanks to KZbin and you,we can all see the bits that they did in other countries..thanks

[@missedlogic]

I'm one the Harrison's fan... I do miss him indeed. Still find them ALL as men with some deep phelosifical vision... study their songs' words and you learn alot.. Thanks Tube

[@SnapeGaveMeDetention]

Hope you’re doing well and still listening to George all these years later!

[@jacklynmorales4960]

George my sweet ❤

[@elizabethrichards7969]

Such a sweet down.to earth gentleman RlP George ..you're missed a whole lot

[@Harmelcon]

Good interview. George seemed especially easy going and he was having fun talking.

[@BeatlesFan1962]

good interview, a bit sad though. cause he said that when you listen to a song that was sung by a dead man it sounded 'different', and lisening to his voice, he being dead, is sad. but thanks for posting

[@markstevens1729]

Simply a brilliant man. Beyond the music, the thoughtfulness, the humour, was his central essence, his spirit, which he sought and expressed. Makes for some odd interview answers, but when you have studied the same spirituality, his answers make the most sense of all.

[@electricdumpling6069]

'I'd like to be one of The Backroom Boys.' GOLD!

[@marjanp4784]

George, I'm 29 and you died when I was just 9 but let me say you one thing that I love you and I would have stood down at the front door of your house if I had lived in London when you were alive ❤️

[@MrLudwig101]

You’re saying if he were still alive you’d be stalking him?

[@MegaPlexy]

In 1995, he looks so healthy and good. What happened, is that another devil's best friend took his spirit by stabbing him nearly to dead in his own home. That's so awful, so wrong.

[@boneappletea3858]

I think they played every Beatles song that wasn't George's.

[@eAGer4]

well i like George and he seemed a very nice fellow in the short dealing I had with him, but I wouldn't call myself a beatles fan and I feel it's kind of wasted with me.

[@freddyfurrah3789]

I don't understand why he didn't stop SMOKING because he was very SPIRITUAL.

[@pushiwallboy]

I think Paul is the richest Beatle. He's well loaded - ask Heather...I think George used to give away a lot - for instance he gave his second house at Letchmore Heath to ISKCON (Hare Krsna) which is shown on the cover of Living in the Material World. He also reputedly left them £20 million. And he financed some movies, some of which bombed. But he can't have been all that skint really, don't you think?

[@knockedoutloaded279]

They would have reunited in 1982 for the 20th anniversary. Wish they had finished..Now and then...there is still time....

[@mikemartinez7433]

Humble? Lots of folks posting he was "humble" If the technology existed at this time, and he was taking questions live and I got through I would say thanks for the years of awesome entertainment! but folks here are saying you are humble, please correct them as a humble man would not have just slammed his former bandmates, as you just did. George was awesome! the fab as four and individually were/are the best ever, in my humble opinion.

[@wms72]

My comments keep being deleted, so I will comment here in reply to 666app: George's Australian interview clearly shows George's lips pronouncing the "F" in Faul, not the "P" in Paul. The "Paul" version is the doctored version.

[@hu9204]

He always called him Paul, so you're wrong.

[@GingerGilligan]

Well I was 19 when this interview was done and I would be perfectly happy to explain it to George if I had the chance. ;)

[@eAGer4]

I have a document signed by George when he came to Australia and did this interview, does anyone know if it's worth anything?

[@neilsun2521]

i'll give you $150 for it?

[@garethb1961]

@eternityWeeps They discovered blood in his drug-stream you know.

This is very cool! I miss George! Check out my Lennon Cover song.

Hey All! Love it, There's not enough room 4 me 2 comment:) Peace

[@GingerGilligan]

Someone may want to know what's something is worth out of curiosity, not because they necessarily want to sell it. And who knows, if you ever fall on hard times and NEED the money it's nice to know you have a source somewhere.

[@garethb1961]

What was it with George? He didn't embrace the whole Beatles thing the way Paul and Ringo do. He talked about it sometimes as if it was all a bit of a nuisance - he never came to terms with how great it was and how great HE was. And his digs at Macca, who was and is even greater, never ended -consider the last moments of the interview where he talks about 'those people' who release and promote their music'. Nevertheless, an incredible guy.

[@AaronStark1993]

I think part of why George didn't look back on the Beatles as fondly as Paul and Ringo do was because he was stifled creatively by being in the group. He was allowed only 2 songs per album and by the late 60's he had a huge catalogue of songs that he wanted to release, and the only way to do that was to go solo. I think George really wanted to break away and prove to everyone that he was just as good, if not better than John and Paul and he would have never gotten the opportunity to do that if the band had continued on.

[@wms72]

9:52 George says "I have no interest in doing a 3---" and he is cut off mid-sentence. He also says, later, "It sounds like the Beatles.... It sounds like THEM." Not "It sounds like US."

[@Franz19970]

blood in his drug steam, haha

[@bz4kh]

I believe that was footage (taken by Priscilla) shortly after their marriage..they went on the road, I guess travelling the country. They got a huge bus, and in between driving they'd stop on the side of the road to let loose, get some exercise. Elvis would often goof off with members of the 'Memphis mafia" (who were also on the road with him & Priscilla). Here they were fooling around, tackling one another, etc, etc.

[@helterskelter87]

"they found some blood in his drug stream" hahahahahahaha

[@michaelpool5712]

I have always felt that too. George never stopped whining about his "place" in The Beatles and never missed a chance to knock Paul and very often John. For a guy who spoke about love and forgiveness he sure carried a grudge.

[@mdfrenchy1]

George wrote alone and when got stuck with a song Paul and John wouldn't help him...he had reason to have ill feelings!

[@George-gg4pb]

@@mdfrenchy1 He never had a grudge towards them. Do you even know anything about him?

[@GingerGilligan]

George's first tumor was two years later in 1997. He had surgery on it, but unfortunately came around 2001. That's when he had chemo.

[@Conspiracion-gq8rd]

The attack made the cancer come back

[@westftballstar31]

paul's worth over 800 million dollars, id say he's the richest

The white streak on his forehead!

Very short blue hair would have been an improvement.

@NeilFraudstrong never more true word's have I seen as a comment........

[@patrick45sue]

This is when today tonight was a credible new's show,not full of cheap rubbish...

[@wms72]

Fact check the September 2017 of the Rolling Stone magazine. Paul's eyes are dark brown, while Faul's eyes minus dark brown contact lenses are light hazel green.

[@markv.5962]

you're out of ur freakin mind. cant you people find something productive to do? stop already

[@romber58]

George Harrison words say something...listen if you like....but the "Beatles" words have no deeper meaning....they like to make fun of people who want to look for a meaning....hehe

[@starrbeatlesqueen]

why's his hair so long? was this when his cancer began?

[@GingerGilligan]

Very short blue hair would have an improvement.

[@slimturnpike]

George is my favorite Beatle, not so much for his musical contributions but for his clarity and humility
