A sketch of the young Beatle done in pencil. I couldn't believe it. George has been on my mind all day, a lot more since I read your post.

This isn't the first time they have surfaced during my Trident research that goes back to 2007. <br /><br />Funny, I had dug up your interview yesterday on 42minutes. I have been reading your stuff and was glad to find some audio with you. Interesting stories. Your presentation is refreshing. <br /><br />Welcome to The Looking Glass.

I was listening to a lot of George Harrison today, while driving my car nicknamed "Beatle George" (my son came up with it. I was thinking particularly about "Cloud 9," the album that came out in 1987. Excellent album. My favorite George album (other than "All Things Must Pass." Was particularly focusing on "When We Was Fab." Two lines get me "The microscopes that magnified the tears" - is this about the breakup of the Beatles or something else? And I had just been listening to Bob Dylan (a fellow Traveling Wilbury) and his 1965 album "Bringing It All Back Home" and the song "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue." George references that song in "When We Was Fab." But why? Perhaps we'll never know. It's been a George kind of day. This post is really resonating with me.
