Remembering
GEORGE HARRISON
February 25, 1943 - November 29, 2001

George Harrison, the legendary English musician, singer-songwriter, and guitarist of the Beatles, was born on February 25, 1943. He is often referred to as "the quiet Beatle" due to his reserved nature, especially during the band's early years.

Harrison's musical influences were diverse, ranging from George Formby and Django Reinhardt to Carl Perkins and Chuck Berry. His interest in Indian classical music, sparked by his introduction to the sitar, significantly impacted the Beatles' sound, particularly in songs like "Norwegian Wood" and "Within You Without You".

As a songwriter, Harrison made significant contributions to the Beatles' catalog, including "Taxman," "Something," and "Here Comes the Sun." His solo career was marked by albums like "All Things Must Pass" and "Cloud Nine," as well as the iconic single "My Sweet Lord".

Harrison was also known for his humanitarian work, particularly in organizing the Concert for Bangladesh in 1971, a pioneering charity event that raised awareness and funds for the people of Bangladesh.

In the late 1980s, Harrison joined forces with Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty to form the Traveling Wilburys. This supergroup released two critically acclaimed albums, "Traveling Wilburys Vol. 1" and "Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3," featuring hits like "Handle with Care" and "End of the Line".

Throughout his life, Harrison received numerous accolades, including two Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions, as a member of the Beatles and as a solo artist. He passed away on November 29, 2001, leaving behind a legacy as a talented musician, singer-songwriter, and philanthropist.
