“George took a big hit for not doing Beatle tunes. I remember [Rolling Stone writer] Ben Fong Torres just pasted George because he didn’t do Beatle songs. Everyone wanted him to reform The Beatles! He told me: ‘I was a Beatle, but I’m not a Beatle anymore, and I’m doing what I love to do.’” - Tom Scott, CultureSonar, 2024
