An Unexpected Conversation

The date was the 29th November 2002, and the time was 1.30 in the afternoon. It was hot. Pattie had retreated into a patch of shade and had drawn a scarf over her head and arms to protect her from the heat of the sun. She would not normally have elected to sit on a mountainside in Peru in their summer in the heat of the day, but she had no choice today. The Concert for George was starting right now, a few thousand miles and six hours away, and this was how she had chosen to honour him. Not to sit in the crowded Royal Albert Hall, enduring all the glances of recognition and curiosity from friends and strangers alike, and not to attempt dry-eyed stoicism as each song being played up on the stage ripped at her heart. Here she was alone, and her grief was hers alone.

A sharp breeze riffled the chiffon scarf around her head and she drew it closer as she gazed across the panoramic view which spread out below her feet. She knew she was safe here, she’d chosen her spot well, but nevertheless sat still and careful, her back pressed against the rock behind her; she had never been good with heights. She remembered how George had giggled at her when they first boarded their boat in Tahiti and she’d hung on grimly for fear of falling. She’d got used to it after a day, or maybe two days to be honest, and was soon clambering around the beams like a pro.

The memory brought the familiar sharp stinging to her eyes. The tears were nearly always just below the surface, they came so easily now. As the breeze stroked her cheeks the tears, allowed to fall freely here, now, dried around the creases to the side of her nose and mouth. She embraced the complete luxury of being able to weep with no-one around to try to console her and no-one for whom she had to be brave. Pattie sat on her mountainside and cried and cried for George. She listened to her own sobbing and she cried some more.

The pain seemed unendurable. A year was too long. She wanted him back on this world.

“I am.”

The voice was unmistakable. She’d heard it nearly every night in her dreams. Millions knew that voice as well as their own. Near the end it had lost its quality, its timbre, and the words had rasped through pain. But this…

Her head whipped to one side towards the direction of the voice, with the result that she turned right into the scarf and her face was completely covered. Through the folds of chiffon though she thought she could see something. But she certainly could hear something. It was laughing. It was George laughing. It was George laughing at her.

The camera loves him…

You are going to spend a romantic and sexy evening with George Harrison.

Which version of him do you want:

1965 George, lounging on the pink chair in the George V hotel with the champagne bottle on the table (Jean-Marie Périer photo)

"Fashion is my life" George from Get Back in his pink pinstripe suit and purple ruffle shirt

Zen George, inventing the man bun

Yassss, thank you for this. It's really made my day to get to think of this, to distract me from the end of my trip.

George my man. New rating system for this, because he deserves it. We'll run each of these through the Shagometric reader and see what results we get, I think.

Pink champagne George

There's lot to love here, huh? He’s so fresh and pretty. He’s full of sass and enjoying life. Also he just does swag better than any of the others. Facts.

Shagometric reading: a 7.9. Good, but not the best

Fashion, werk George

This is very "you might think I broke up the band, but I look to good for you to bring it up now". So, I'm into it for that. I also need to give extra points for how hard George worked to look off the charts good for this entire project, compared to the others.

Shagometric reading: 9. Mostly for the pre-divorce, look what you're missing vibes of it all

Man Bun George

This look. This look. It makes me want to invent time travel so I can go back and touch his hair. Or, you know, grab hold of it. I've also always had a thing for men with long shiny hair like this. It's my ideal. Look at him.

Shagometric reading: off the scale.

Man bun George takes the day and also my heart (and anything else he fancies to be honest).

[georgiesgirl]

Sorry it has to be ‘65 George for me - off the shagometre - not that I am objectifying or anything….

George Harrison is interviewed before the 1985 British Grand Prix

George Harrison, what is it about motor racing that attracts you?

Uh, I don’t know… just… I think it’s the waste of money. Really. It’s such an amazing waste of money!

George Harrison, you are a serious fan. Who do you think is going to win the British Grand Prix?

Well I’ve no idea who will win… I know who I’d like to win

Who’s that?

Nelson

Why would you like to see Nelson Piquet win?

Because he’s such a nice person!

he should've killed all of them .

The Beatles’ Revolver art & Klaus Voormann

A random web search threw up the image above, citing that it was a rejected cover for The Beatles‘ Revolver album. More searching revealed that it wasn’t by Klaus Voormann, whose classic black & white collage and line cover everyone knows, but by photographer Robert Freeman. The Beatles passed over it for Klaus’ work and googling that cover image brings up masses of variations of the final piece, as many by Klaus as by fans who have reworked it for their own ends. Voornman not only did many different versions before he arrived at the final but has revisited it many times over the years as well as creating several works centered around Beatles songs in the same style for various projects.

“Abbey Road”.

by Klaus Voormann.

Interesting that he only drew Paul’s eyes; such a mix of pain and intensity. 

[georgiesgirl]

Looks more like George’s eyebrows than Paul’s IMHO… look at this other drawing by Klaus. McCartneys eyebrows are more arched..?
