<\/p>\nGeorge Harrison was often known as \u201cThe Quiet One\u201d in his band, rising to fame along side his bandmates in legendary The Beatles. Sadly, he passed away in 2001, age just 58.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
These days, his son, Dhani Harrison, is keeping George\u2019s legacy alive.\u00a0And he started off doing so by completing his father\u2019s last heartbreaking, but loving wish.<\/p>\n

As one of the most influential groups of the twentieth century, The Beatles, from Liverpool, England, shook the world with their\u00a0musicianship, which revolutionized the direction of popular music forever.<\/p>\n
The Beatles wrote and composed almost all of their songs themselves, creating \u201cBeatlemania\u201d, which spread across the world at the speed of sound.<\/p>\n

Along with Elvis Presley, The Beatles marked the start of the rock n\u2019 roll era of music. The boyband\u2019s hits are still today played on radio stations all over the world; the voices of John Lennon and\u00a0Paul McCartney, the drumbeats of Ringo Starr, and the astonishing guitar solos from George Harrison that made them a band almost everyone loved.<\/p>\n
But of course, it wasn\u2019t just their music that has influenced the generations; The Beatles also had a great impact on society with regards fashion trends and lifestyles.<\/p>\n
In the book\u00a0Fifty Years Adrift, author Derek Taylor describes his own impression of going to a Beatles concert. It sure sounds like something special.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have never seen anything like it, nor heard any noise to approximate the ceaseless, frantic, hysterical scream which met the Beatles when they took the stage after what seemed a hundred years of earlier acts,\u201d he\u00a0wrote. \u201cAll very good, all marking time, because no one had come for anything other than The Beatles\u201d.<\/p>\n
John Lennon and Paul McCartney are recognized as the main writers of the lyrics and music of the Beatles, turning them into a band for the ages. But as the years went by, George Harrison showed himself to be a great songwriter in his own right.<\/p>\n

Some would argue that he was responsible for writing some of The Beatles\u2019 most\u00a0beautiful songs. That includes hits like\u00a0Something, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Here Comes the Sun\u00a0and\u00a0If I Needed Someone, not to mention his great solo work. Of course, he wasn\u2019t the most outspoken member of the band. Oftentimes he was portrayed as the shy, nice boy who just wanted to show his music to the world.<\/p>\n
To be a child of a celebrity often comes with huge expectations from fans. Being the child of a Beatle is something else entirely. Still, several of the children of John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney and George Harrison have pursued careers in music.<\/p>\n
The son of George, Dhani Harrison, is one of them, but in a pretty different way than his father. And the truth is, he did it for an altogether heartbreaking reason.<\/p>\n
Like the the rest of The Beatles\u2019 members, George Harrison came from a working-class family. He was born February 25, 1943 in the area of Wavertree, Liverpool, as the youngest of four children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
