1:53 - 2:10 George Harrison's summary of his conversation with Lennon ("hi,hello"-"hi") is brilliant. Such a twist on the premise of a usual talk show, where we often watch "stars" telling flashy stories, trying too hard to make them sound extraordinary. Here we have a story about two actual stars, having the most ordinary conversation ever, and yet George made it funny and interesting effortlessly.

I still get chills when I think about this. The day before George passed away, a friend of mine came to my apartment and him and I played some guitar. We played my sweet lord from all things must pass and end of the line from his days in the traveling wilburies. Afterwards, we talked about George and the Beatles. We both agreed that George was the best Beatle. We ended up listening to some Beatles that night. The next day, he called me up and asked if I heard about George. When he told me the news, I thought he was just messing with me. I looked it up and sure enough. I’ve always been weirded out by that.

It happened outside his bedroom on the landing. He would have been dead if he'd been lying in bed, he wouldn't have been able to fight. The papers did say that one wound punctured his lung, but a lot of the others were just as horrific. The man was slashing him everywhere. George's wife hit him again and again on the head with this brass lamp, but he just wouldn't stop. There was blood everywhere." Charlie Watts, The Rolling Stones

All talk shows do pre-interviews, most of the time. They basically outline what the topics are going to be, and rehearse it. Obviously, sometimes they’ll get inspired during the interview and get off topic and improvise. But talk shows today have very limited time, they’re seeking to entertain people, and a conversation like this one wouldn’t sell. Today’s public is too accustomed to gullible and shallow conversations to enjoy a talk show like this one.

George’s ex Patti Boyd wrote in her book how George would come home, after a Beatles recording session, furious because John and Paul treated George like a kid brother. The Beatles broke up in April 1970, and George Harrison release a triple album “All Things Must Pass” 7 months later, on November 1970, with 30 songs on it. Those 30 songs were all rejected by Lennon and McCartney and excluded from Beatles albums. So, George couldn’t wait to be free of the Beatles.

In the wake of the glorious Beatles: Get Back on Disney+, I certainly see why George wanted to leave. You often heard that he was stifled by the great Lennon/McCartney, but to hear him basically say he has so much material that he just HAS to release it, was impactful. Cool thing about The Beatles is that they left at the PERFECT time, right at the end of 1969---truly children of the 60's. Their popularity didn't wane, they didn't release any lackluster struggle albums, (lol, some of them kept that for their solo careers); The Beatles' Discography is impeccable! Like true performers, The Beatles left us WANTING MORE!

The part that really sticks out to me after watching it is in the studio when Paul says something like " Why are you using that guitar? Isn't the Rickenbacker much better?" and George was just like "I like this one." Like he had to explain himself, or as if it wasn't good enough for Paul......

@@danielcarter3928 Yea I feel you. George seemed to have a bit of a snide/surly way of responding to Paul, but again I really understand why. 1. Throughout the MAJORITY of the doc, Paul and John are talking to each other....George tries to get a word in, they kind of acknowledge him, then go back to their convo. 2. Rememba that scene where George tried to play "I, Me, Mine" for John? And john sarcastically said, "You know we're a Rock 'n Roll group?" I mean really? That's coming from the guy who was hellbent on making REVOLUTION 9! Yea, John was being a little jokey, but I feel the tone was genuine and typifies how he (and Paul) just big "brothered" George, and sent him off to play. John even remarked in a way like "Run off now" or something like that. This doc really helped me see what life must've been like for George. George was simultaneously a successful and struggling artist---wrap your head around that one! lol

@@danielcarter3928 Actually, Paul was asked why he wasn't using his Rickenbacker bass, and he said it was heavier than the Hofner. That being said, watching Get Back, one can see that Paul was the reason the band split up. George, at one point, is saying he wants to take time off to record his songs, he's ignored. Paul just kept pushing. Look at their post-Beatles careers, John had George and Ringo play for him sometimes, George had John and Ringo play sometimes, Ringo had John and George play for him occasionally. Paul had to start Wings. None of the ex Beatles ever played with Paul again until the Anthology sessions. McCartney is one of the greatest songwriters of all time, nevertheless, he was pushy. In the Get Back Disney+ show, Paul at one point says "You have to achieve something everyday." John says (paraphrasing him), "Paul, that's pretty hard to do."

The only problem I have with George is the fact that while he condemned 'materialism', he was, in reality, very 'materialistic'. He owned a number of mansions and vacation homes in different countries, had a fleet of cars, also a number of race cars and travelled the world like a wandering prince. Lennon was the same. He claimed he was a 'working class hero' which he certainly wasn't. He no sooner moved into the Dakota when he spent millions buying out the next unit, knocking down a few walls and doubling the size of his own apartment. He pledged the profit from several of his albums to various causes and charities but never followed through. At least McCartney and Ringo were never hypocritical about their vast wealth. They enjoyed it, spent it and never tried posing as 'common people' although you could say that Ringo was 'common' but he couldn't help that. He was just being himself.

Never mind that George had already had numerous affairs himself but what was alright for him was not alright for his wife.

True story about George: He hired two gardeners to tend to his home. The next day, they arrived to start their work, only to encounter police & ambulances. George was stabbed, seriously stabbed, by an intruder/maniac and was in a stretcher. (When the intruder was discovered, George started to yell, "Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna !!" His wife Olivia was also stabbed & possibly saved George's life....) While George was being led toward the ambulance, extremely bloodied, he spotted the gardeners & waved them over to him. The police allowed them to approach George, as he was adamant about speaking to the newly hired gardeners. What did George possibly want them for ?..... To simply ask them, "How do you like working here so far ?"..... George was far from ordinary !! Bless his soul. 🚬😎

George's droll humor and deadpan delivery is classic. John was considered to be the "witty Beatle" but I thought George had the best sense of humor. He personally bankrolled Monty Python's 'Life of Brian' because he liked the script and wanted to watch it in movie form.

I love his no-bullshit honesty which made him so refreshingly interesting to listen to and inadvertently funny. I also love his perfectly British dry sense of humor. You can totally tell he was an introvert, and being one myself, I relate to him on a very deep level. Let's not even talk about the music he wrote because that really speaks for itself.

Paul has a pretty dry wit though. Was just watching an old Colbert show on KZbin with him. Understated British humor. They were all actually pretty witty and funny. That’s why the American press liked them so much. They were just funny and entertaining to interview and would give spontaneous and clever answers to the most ordinary question on demand. Didn’t miss a beat. All high IQ talented individuals. And then there was John. Quickest wit of all. Really cerebral and powerful intellect, even with all the drugs. Good with words, could give an ironic twist to anything that came out of his mouth
