MUSIC NEWS- UK singer/songwriter/composer, Dean Johnson used some "misplaced" lyrics written by BEATLE George Harrison to create a new song. The lyrics were written by Harrison in the late sixties, but never used by Harrison or the Beatles, but instead were given to the band's biographer Hunter Davies who filed and lost track of them. Davies came across the lyrcis recenlty and mentioned them i

A source says that Harrison's Traveling Wilburys partner ...

Olivia Harrison, widow of George Harrison, spoke with Britain's Sun on the eve of the release of George's career compilation, Let It Roll. When asked if Harrison would have participated in a Beatles reunion, she said "I think so, yes, I do, because he had great love for the others. He really did.

George Harrison is one Beatle that is universally beloved. His fellow counterparts all had their flaws. Paul comes across as being a little egotistical and pompous. John had some major family issues which really puts into question his true desire for world peace. Ringo... Well I think we can all agree he wasn’t the most talented member. George was the quiet, talented and charming member of the.

Not quite the definitive tribute that rediscovered George deserved, Let It Roll is a patchy albeit always listenable collection

Abandoned Love (George's demo version)I can see the turning of the keyI've been deceived by the clown inside of meI thought that he was righteous but he's vainThough something's telling me, I wear the ball and chainMy patron saint is a-fighting with a ghostHe's always off somewhere when I need him mostThe Spanish moon is rising on the hillBut my heart is telling me, I love you stillI come back ...

I haven't seen Mike Myers The Love Guru yet, but couldn't miss the unusually high volume of billboards popping up on sites.The word is Meyers' satire is too nice to have real teeth, yet rehashes stereotypes that aren't leaving Hindus laughing, or anyone else who found it not so much anti-Hindu as"antifunny, an experience that makes you wonder if you will ever laugh again." -A.O.

.....Well, pretty damn far. Especialy with WonderWall Music, George Harrison's infuriating first solo release. Its an unfocused mish-mash of colliding iseas, most still-born. But there are a few tracks that do not.........hurt. This may be one of them, & this may also be a track on which G.H. actualy played.......As George Clinton would surely opine.....This has zero% groovitivity! No fu...

........George Harrison.......Always a delight. This little swipe at McCartney slips by unnoticed on George's Thirty Three & 1/3.....WARNING: Political content! You've been warned.........Joseph Stalin once refered to members of the American Communist party as "usefull idiots". It seems the grassroots "tea pary" tidal wave brewing has found a usefull idiot. ..........These comments offend &...

......It May be a bit misleading to call this a George Harrison Track as there's no way of knowing what part, if any, George played in this performance. But I find it to be a pleasant little diversion.....atypically jaunty. Jaunty? C'mon! Who says jaunty anymore? But yeah.....I like to put this unlisted in certain mixes & ask people to guess from whence it came. (wait a minute! Whence? ...

George Harrison's lyrics were often profound in their stark simplicity.Often perceived as the silent, mystic, mysterious Beatle, and yet his lyrics were far more direct and "on the surface" than Lennon's or McCartney's.**Don't come around, leave me alone, don't bother me**Just about says it all, no?Paul McCartney always loved the limelight. Lennon manipulated it, showed us shadow puppets and h...

Another track from Jools Hollands Big Band Rhythm & Blues cd, and as I mentioned previously, the last track recorded and _completed_ by George Harrson before his death.A very fine cd for anyone who loves good music played well. An impressive array of guests get to strut their stuff in a project that IMHO is two cuts above the usual result of such concepts.
