George Harrison Didn't Care When People Called Him the Ex-Beatle Who ...

George Harrison didn’t care when people called him the ex-Beatle who benefited the most from the group’s dissolution. He didn’t want to be George the Beatle in any capacity. George was the first Beatle to dislike his time in the band. It happened earlier than most think. He enjoyed the essence of the group the most; their companionship and effortless performances. That essence was strongest during The Beatles’ Hamburg, Germany, residency. However, they couldn’t play dive bars forever. They wanted a recording contract, and when their manager, Brian Epstein, secured one, they climbed to the top fast. Almost too fast. They had a price to pay for fame. Soon, they couldn’t go anywhere without being chased by hoards of screaming fans. When they played the same 10 songs over and over on tour, those fans only screamed more.
