flyfisher Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Nice reminder. I've seen it before but it's a good excuse to put the kettle on and slob out for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

risingson Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Just re-watched it, I do love Mr Harrison, what a brilliant bloke. Fascinating stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essexbasscat Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) Oh, that was entertaining. A really nice reminder of George's capacity for melodic composition, as well as his humanity. The world would certainly be no worse off if there were more like him. FF - is that a Sellars / ying tong yiddle I Po gag ?

[/quote] No, it was a reference to the story that George Martin told about one of the first times that he had been recording 'the boys' and the fact that he hadn't really 'teken' to them at the time. Anyway, after the session he invited them all into the control room to listen to what he had been doing and he said to them them that if there was anything that they didn't like, they just had to tell him and he'd change it. Harrison was the first to speak and said "Well I don't like your tie for a start" GM said that was the point at which he started to warm to them.
