George Harrison 조지 해리슨

About

George Harrison (25 February 1943 – 29 November 2001) was an English musician who achieved international fame as the lead guitarist of the Beatles. Known as "the quiet Beatle", Harrison played a significant role in shaping the band's musical direction and established a successful solo career, particularly through his interest in Eastern musical influences. Although most of the band's songs were written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, most Beatles albums contained at least one Harrison composition. These included "Taxman", "Within You Without You", "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", "Something" and "Here Comes the Sun".
