George Harrison remembered ten years on

Ten years ago today, George Harrison lost his battle with lung cancer at the age of 58, ending one of the most influential musical lives ever led.Harrison gained a reputation for himself as 'the quiet Beatle', often preferring to leave the spotlight to his more vocal band mates. During this time, however, he was the songwriting master behind some of the most highly regarded songs of the band's career including 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps', 'Here Comes The Sun' and the cheeky stab at the tax department who were, at the time, taxing the band 95% because they found themselves in the top earners in the country, 'Taxman'.'When you think about it, the four egos, it's amazing they did anything because they're all very strong people,' producer George Martin said in a BBC Radio Documentary on Harrison.
