George Harrison on George Harrison Summary

George Harrison on George Harrison: Interviews and Encounters by Ashley Kahn

George Harrison on George Harrison is an authoritative, chronologically arranged anthology of Harrisons most revealing and illuminating interviews, personal correspondence, and writings, spanning the years 1962 to 2001. Though known as the Quiet Beatle, Harrison was arguably the most thoughtful and certainly the most outspoken of the famous four. This compendium of his words and ideas proves that point repeatedly, revealing his passion for music, his focus on spirituality, and his responsibility as a celebrity, as well as a sense of deep commitment and humor.
