George Harrison and the Struggle for Creative Freedom

I’m easy prey to any article mentioning a Beatle, but I found that quite interesting.<p>When watching that recent Beatles doco “Get Back” about the making of Let it be, it was fascinating to see how John and Paul had a way of putting musical ideas back and forth between them — but when a tune wasn’t yet “ready” to move out of that duo of composers then they did not want George to get involved. And I saw Paul getting the most frustrated by this - that George would add some embellishment or input - and Paul would feel like it was a set back and a distraction.<p>So strange to see it unfolding!<p>It was like this. Imagine two people (John and Paul) are working together to build a life size puppet&#x2F;model of a character using wire and bolts. The two of them are constantly changing the shape of the character as they evolve the idea. But then a third person comes along, who happens to be the worlds best papier-mâché artist, and he starts putting papier-mâché “skin” over the half constructed character. They all get upset with each other. The world expert papier-mâché artist is hurt, the modellers are frustrated, it’s total chaos.<p>Anyway - it was a tough position for George to be in, that was pretty clear.

Quite fascinating read. I always considered George my favorite beatle. He had a big heart for India and it influenced the Beatles during their later years before they broke up. But it’s because of his overall creative that I was such a fan of him. In addition to his music career, Harrison was also a film producer and a humanitarian. He produced the film &quot;Monty Python&#x27;s Life of Brian&quot; (1979) and organized the Concert for Bangladesh (1971), a benefit concert that raised money for refugees from the Bangladesh Liberation War. For those who don’t know , George passed away in early 2000s from throat cancer I believe. Such a legend!

Harrison&#x27;s first recorded song was not Taxman, but five years before that: Don&#x27;t bother me. He also had a song on A Hard days night, two on Help and two on Rubber Soul, before Taxman (where Paul played the guitar solo btw). So it might have been bad, being nr 3, but not bad as suggested.

There’s something else missing from this article.<p>Regardless of how creative and respected you want to be as an individual, it might be better to just be in The Beatles.

<i>At some point, we need to realise that we’ve learned enough through consumption. Only by creating can we maximise the learning journey and prevent what we’ve learned from stagnating within us. The best way to do that is to develop a habit of creative experimentation and expression by allocating daily time for our creative pursuits.</i>

&gt; Lennon and McCartney had a habit of including only their own songs on their albums<p>Early Beatles albums are <i>full</i> of covers!

I&#x27;d like to propose this as a reference article for the class of &quot;not particularly well-written essays which nevertheless could not be written by a circa 2023 LLM&quot;.<p>A few of the sentences could have been written by an LLM, especially the last one. But the overall structure has motion, empathy, and interprets historical events in the context of human motivations and desires. Quotes are both appropriate and reflective. The author thought about this, rather than compiling it.

No mention of &quot;In spite of all the danger&quot; by the quarrymen which was a Mccartney&#x2F;Harrison collaboration<p>I liked the early Harrison songs like - &quot;I need you&quot; and &quot;You like me to much&quot; on Help. Even the anthology released &quot;You Know What to Do&quot; was good

George lived his best life. There&#x27;s a part of &quot;20 Feet From Stardom&quot; where one of the profiled backup singers who was in The Concert for Bangladesh says it was an experience that anyone would remember for the rest of their life.
