Photographer: Bill Zygmant (1968)

PATTIE BOYD’S reaction to a series of his portraits sums up Bill Zygmant’s passion for photography. They were pictures of her ex-husband George Harrison, exhibited in a Compton Verney gallery after his death.

She stood there for a long time, her eyes fixed on his face, then turned and simply kissed Zygmant on the cheek before walking away. [x]

“I have a conflict; I don’t particularly want to play to audiences. I like to play in a band, but I don’t like the adulation, the attention, all that focusing on *me*. I like the idea of playing in a band and the people liking the music without this specific *adulation*. I don’t like that at all. It’s unhealthy to be *the star*. You know, it’s a business and people are dependent on fans. They whip up hysteria to collect fans so that they can make more money. But I don’t see it that way. I am — or was — a musician. I wasn’t supposed to be a novelty that people came to look at, like we became in the Beatles. We became a kind of obsession. And that side of it makes me uncomfortable. But having said that, it’s fun to play every night and see if you can do better each time.” - George Harrison, RCD, 1992 (x)

This is a little note to say, if you ever come across something about The Beatles -- as a group or individuals -- which is meaningful to you, make sure you save it to your computer or somewhere safe. This goes for quotes, videos, articles, photos, etc. Don't presume it will always be there when you want to come back to it.

The idea that what's on the internet lasts forever isn't true and becomes even less so every day. Shortly after I started this blog in the early '10s, the official forum on the George Harrison website went down for "maintenance" and never came back. That was over a decade's worth of information gone in a snap. I think about it all the time, and while I tried to collect what I could before other sites met the same fate, it still makes me sad to think about what I might've missed.

Now that another decade has passed, several of my sources already lead to dead links, and while in the beginning it felt like I was spoilt for choice with the various online communities, it's much harder now. The internet has shrunk significantly. Not to mention the number of times a rare video has popped up on YouTube and suddenly disappeared within days.

Even tumblr isn't immune. There's been a couple points where it seemed like it was going to effectively shut down, and I had to think about alternatives which didn't really exist.

I don't want to make people feel paranoid, and there are a lot of great blogs out there serving as archives, but I believe it's important for fans overall to start thinking about archiving what they can. We've been so lucky to enjoy a wealth of information preserved by fans for over 50 years. It'd be a shame for future generations to lose access to it.

The fact that there could be dozens of George stories that never get heard bcuz of that site going down is so sad :(((
