George Harrison

George Harrison MBE was an English musician, singer, songwriter, and music and film producer who achieved international fame as the lead guitarist and occasional lead vocalist of the Beatles. George Harrison was known as the 'quiet Beatle' during his time with the Fab Four, but he became one of the most popular singer-songwriters in his own right. Among his most famous songs were My Sweet Lord, What Is Life, When We Was Fab, All Those Years Ago and his cover of Got My Mind Set On You
