More about This Feature:
"George Harrison: An
Appreciation" includes reflections from fans, both here in New Mexico
and across the country, who comment about the impact
George Harrison's
music has had on their lives. The bulk of the program is devoted to
Harrison's music: 30 songs from his early days as lead guitarist for
The Beatles, through
his post-Beatles solo and collaborative work.
Among the music selections:
Harrison-penned
Beatles tracks like
"Love You To," "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "Here Comes the Sun;"
"All Things Must Pass," "Isn't It A Pity," and an early demo of "Let it
Down," from his landmark 1970 All Things Must Pass release; and
samples of his many solo releases and his late career collaboration with
Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Jeff Lynne in the Traveling
Wilburys.
"The impact of
The Beatles on modern
music is staggering," says Ingles, "and
Harrison's role as an
instrumentalist and as a writer of some of the
Beatles most memorable
tunes makes him an extremely important figure to remember. And some
would say his post-Beatles work is even more significant
as he consistently delivered messages of peace, love and tolerance. His
words have crucial importance to today's troubled world."
