I remember a newspaper or magazine headline at the time of his death: "George Harrison Meets His Sweet Lord At Last."

I remember how much George would have to fight to get his songs on each of the Beatles albums. It turns out that George had more than his share to offer. Songs like Here Comes The Sun and White My Guitar Gently Weeps. Or the song Frank Sinatra called the greatest love song ever written... Something.

George was the gentle soul, the spiritual gatekeeper of the Beatles. Sometimes boodish, often misunderstood, George gently set the example for the rest of its to follow.

Peace... Check out Priinces' guitar solo at the end, just amazing
