This Dark Horse Is a Winner

Thanks for the George Harrison article, “His Greatest Beatles Guitar Moments” [September 2021]. I always find it interesting that so many guitarists from different genres are influenced by the Beatles’ music. I believe George was underrated as a guitarist, singer and songwriter — only because he happened to play in a band with John Lennon and Paul McCartney. But the Beatles wouldn’t have been as successful without George, that’s for sure. P.S.: As a 28-year subscriber, thanks for keeping the politics out of GW. It’s a much better magazine without it.

I greatly enjoyed. And they were friends! How did you guys miss him?
