Thanks HH.  He had alot to say, but in a band that had JL/PM, didn't have a whole lot of avenue for his stuff.  To his credit, he snuck in his influences--the Rickenbacker/Sitar, which influenced everything from The Byrds to the Rolling Stones (doubtful "Paint It Black" would have happened otherwise), the Byrds being kind of a conduit between the Fabs and Dylan, almost like a silent auction in a way.  Probably the most underrated guitar player in history.  Jeezus, his solo when they were still covering others was brilliant - 'Till There Was You' - perfect...

Yeah, that's very true, all of it. On the Ed Sullivan Show when he played Till There Was You he made it look so easy. Ya gotta love George!

Yeah, he sang more in the early days. Probably to save voices in the long Hamburg nights they took shifts at singing lead.
