I'm not a big Beatles fan, but I do like Here Comes the Sun

"Something" is one of my very favorites.

Lots of love for Geogre Harrison here, which is a little surprising to me. SOmething, Guitar gently weeps, here comes the sun, all Harrison stuff.

Good for the dead guy.

Ironically, apart from the comical but never taken seriously Ringo, Paul may end up being the least loved and admired Beatle priamrily becasue he hasn't died.

Let's not forget, "I've Got my Mind Set on You." A good song, and cool music video...back when there still were cool music videos.

I enjoyed some of the Traveling Wilburys stuff when Harrison would sing but didn't think much of the other stuff.

DIdn't Jeff Lynne get credit for co-writing that song? IF not, he certainly had his musical and porduction fingerprints all over it. Don't misinderstand, I liked it, but it was as much Lynne as Harrison, I think.

It would make sense that Harrison had a co-writer...because it takes Tiiiiiiime...a whole lot of precious tiiiiiime, it takes plenty of time...yeah...to do it, to do it, to do it, to do it, to do it, to do it right...

I was wrong, per wikipedia:


Quote:
Got My Mind Set on You" is a song written by Rudy Clark and originally recorded by the late James Ray in 1962.
A cover version by former Beatle George Harrison from his album Cloud Nine reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 1988. Two music videos were also released for the song. Produced by Harrison and former ELO member Jeff Lynne, the song was his third and last solo US number one, after "My Sweet Lord" in 1970 and "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)" in 1973. It was also the last number one single, to date, by any of The Beatles in the USA.
