More links
I’ve found a good tribute site about George Harrison’s passing to add to Tim’s links. Plus, I’ve written a eulogy of sorts.
The Muppets: Gateway drug to all good things
I was trying to remember what the first time was that I heard the Beatles. The first album of theirs that I ever listened to was a vintage copy of the White Album that our youth pastor lent me. It started a three year period of intense Beatlemania that culminated in the trip to see Paul on the “Flowers in the Dirt” tour (that’s the one Esta alludes to here).
But that’s not time I ever heard their songs. That would have to be on the Muppets, when Dr. Teeth and Janice covered “With a Little Help From My Friends” and the acoustic cover of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” by Sgt. Floyd Pepper (on the Lynda Carter episode). That’s what I’ll be remembering today.
Now playing
Currently playing song: “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” by The Beatles on The Beatles (White Album) (Disc 1).
All things must pass
This morning, a moment of silence for George Harrison, who lost his long struggle with cancer yesterday. The Washington Post has a good eulogy, as does the BBC.
