George Harrison is a guitar effect? Wow, you learn something new everyday.ggunn said:Isn't that George Harrison?

olfunk said:that guitar part sounds kinda like the one from "you never give me your money" by the beatles which i suppose George Harrison would have played. how odd. it sounds either like a leslie or a nice chorus pedal.

Harrison was given credit on the original releases of that album as "L'Angelo Mysterioso."TelePaul said:It's George and it's a Leslie. I think it's a bit much really.

To be clear, Harrison is playing the rhythm part on the bridge on a Leslie, underneath Clapton's lead work.
I liked Clapton a lot until his post-Layla days, and I never did come completely back around. I thought his sound really went to shit during the Delany & Bonnie Bramlett / Leon Russell days, and Slowhand/461 Ocean Blvd, and didn't improve until Journeyman, which was a good album but overproduced IMO.TelePaul said:Hee Hee am I the only one who prefers Harrison as a guitar player?

I don't like the way Clapton always gets credited with the solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"; afaik, he does play on the track, but the solo is George.
TelePaul said:George is just cool..I love the Octopus' Garden intro and solo, the real cool playing in Back in the USSR and the cool country-esque solo in Get Back.
32-20-Blues said:The solo in 'Get Back' kicks ass. You know, at one stage he walked out and Lennon wanted to offer the job to Clapton?
Just one of those guitarist bits of trivia, like Rory Gallagher writing the riff to "Start Me Up" by the Stones, or Clapton begging Robbie Robertson to be allowed join The Band. Oh yeah, The "Quite Rightly" whispers in Donovan's "Mellow Yellow" are by Paul McCartney.
