"Often overlooked as a songwriter, despite introducing Indian music to western ears and penning The Beatles standards 'Here Comes The Sun' and 'Something', George Harrison embraced fame reluctantly. Almost as famous for his religous beliefs, drug use and film funding as for his music, he retired from public life following the assassination of John Lennon. A spectacular late-1990s comeback, as both solo artist and Traveling Wilbury, returned him as household name for a new generation, a position maintained by working with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr on The Beatles Anthology projects and 2000's best-selling compilation." "Fully updated to include George's near-fatal stabbing by a crazed fan, some 19 years after Lennon's death, and his recent battle with cancer, George Harrison remains the definitive study of this most reserved and genuine talent."--BOOK JACKET.
