I can see Swine's point of view. George is the one people tend to forget today, so I can see that being true in the future. Fans will know, but the general public will probably forget. The thing is, George's focus from about '65 on was to actively run from the limelight. He became the Quiet Beatle because he was fed up with the mania. When the Dark Horse tour premiered, he denied the press interviews, no backstage passes, no photographers. This really p*ssed them off! He wanted to play music, but as a musician, not as a famous person. So he set out this impossible goal for himself, to play without being "ex-Beatle George", with mixed results.
I like to think that George will be remembered for his other achievements, such as being the first to present a huge rock-n-roll charity event and to introduce the Western world to what we now know as "world music". (Or popularize it, I should say, along with Eastern thought. Everytime you go to a yoga class, you can thank George.) His place in the history books should be secure on that basis alone.
As for the Beatles, I think they still will be played 100 years from now, and I think that's amazingly cool. Well done, fellows! Congratulations to all of you, whether John Q. Public remembers your name or not!
