George Harrison was just as good a gardener as he was a musician, but he’d rather fans remember him as the former rather than the latter. He was first and foremost a gardener, with a couple of hits under his belt.
George never concerned himself with his legacy. His wife Olivia told the LA Times she didn’t think her husband thought fans would remember him.
He knew his first album outside The Beatles, All Things Must Pass, “meant things to people. He knew it helped people in their lives — people wrote to him, they told him. And he said, ‘Even if it’s one person, even if it helps somebody, then that’s great.’ But he wasn’t concerned about how he would be remembered,” Olivia said.
