Soupy Twist

A menagerie of musicians, actors and pieces of prose. No real coherent thread, but do come for a giggle or a cheeky titter (sounds like innuendo that, now that I think of it🤦🏻‍♀️, thus a change in blog title is in order).

“My mum did encourage me. Perhaps most of all by never discouraging me from anything I wanted to do. That was the good thing about her and my dad.” - George Harrison, The Beatles: The Authorized Biography (1968) “[George’s father] had fought a losing battle over George’s clothes and his long hair mainly because Mrs. Harrison sided with George. ‘It’s his own hair, I used to say. Why should anyone tell you what to do with what’s your own?’” - ibid “George used to go to school with his school cap sitting high on top of his hair. And very tight trousers. Unknown to me, he’d run them up on my machine to make them even tighter. I bought him a brand new pair once and the first thing he did was tighten them. When his dad found out, he told him to unpick them at once. ‘I can’t, Dad,’ he said. ‘I’ve cut the pieces off.’ George always had an answer. He once went to school with a canary-yellow waistcoat under his school blazer. It belonged to his brother Harry, but George thought he looked terrific in it.“ - Louise Harrison, ibid “Mrs. Harrison, as ever, was one of their most devoted fans, following them everywhere. Not just following them, but taking relations and friends along as well. She was at the Cavern that time before they went to Hamburg when John’s Aunt Mimi had stormed in, determined to pull John out by his ear. ‘I saw her on the way out,’ says Mrs. Harrison. ‘“Aren’t they great,” I shouted at her. She turned to me and said she was glad someone thought so. I met Mimi a few times after that. She always used to say “You thing. We’d all have had lovely peaceful lives but for you encouraging them.”’” - ibid “Well you ask about George’s Bad habits, I don’t really know. I am worse than the fans, and the only thing he does is leave all things spread over the room, but even then I don’t care, as I love him home. He is sincere, thoughtful, & sympathetic. Always thinks of others before himself, he is happy & likes a good laugh.” - Louise Harrison in reply to a letter from George fan Jenny (March 1964)
