george was a genius

That Let it be solo is simply magic.

After George died, Les Paul said there are millions of guitarists in the world; few have anything to say. "George had something to say." EXACTLY.

George Harrison as a guitarist is criminally underrated. In my books a total legend. Great playing!

I sometimes think George Harrison is one of the most underrated guitar players of all time. He broke so much new ground, was so melodic in his approach, with incredible sensitivity, feel, phrasing and understated execution. He came up with so much originality at such a very young age. Paul McCartney talks about this.

Octopus's Garden is on of the most underrated songs in the world

George’s solos were so melodic !! A perfect fit for every song He didn’t need to be flashy

Important thing to note: Paul plays the duel lead guitar part on And Your Bird Can Sing and John plays lead on Get Back. Of course, they all play the triple solo on The End. George was definitely the best of the three, but they could all shred on guitar!

The solo for "Till There Was You" is stellar.

Let's see John Lennon played lead guitar on the song Get back. Paul McCartney and George Harrison both played lead guitar on And Your Bird Can Sing, on the song The End all three play lead guitar, but it's George Harrison's lead guitar right at the end of this song that makes it something special. And every other song featured here has George Harrison on lead guitar. A big shout out to this guy here playing these great guitar riffs and leads. He nailed every one of them.

All of George's solo guitar performance during the Beatles' era until he died are above excellent!

George was not a off-the-cuff soloist. He admitted as much many times. However, he really worked things out and eventually came up with the perfect part for the song and you can hear this in the Anthology cds. His guitar work on "Tomorrow Never Knows" is a great example. We heard his solo backwards on the finished work, but he wrote it out to be played backward and sound good, not just a jumble of notes like so many after The Beatles who didn't realize what they were hearing. This is musical genius.

Big props for including Til there was You

George might not have looked or acted like a shredding guitar god (Jimmy Page; Eddie Van Halen) but his guiatr work is so melodic and beautiful (Something; The End) you don't get that too often from hard rockers or metal, even if Harrison proved he can be just as gritty, dirty and blues oriented in his guitar playing like his buddy from Cream

ビートルズ歴５７年! どのフレイズも、頭の中に確りインプットされています　❣ 再現力が素晴らしい　❣ 何の違和感なく聴けます、Thank you, Kenji ❣

I will always love George Harrison. He is unquestionably my favorite guitarist, his melodies and cord progressions were brilliant. Lennon and McCartney appreciated George for that, too bad they didn't appreciate the fact that he had became an excellent songwriter too.

George's last words were "Love someone." Class act till end!!!!!!!!!!!

Being a boomer and a Beatles longtime fan, I've heard these guitar solos maybe a million times and have taken them for granted, but seeing how you have to play the guitar to get these sounds I am amazed and could only utter "genius"! Thank you.

The more I hear other musicians 'analysing' the music of the Beatles, the more impressed I become with the sheer creative brilliance of those guys - and I'm old enough to remember Life Before the Fab Four.

素晴らしいのはもちろんですが音色の整合性。こだわりに愛の強さが伝わります♪日本人ビートルズファンの誇り！！

George was an excellent rockabilly soloist.

George was an amazing guitarist. He really knew how to make a solo pop, and when to shift to a different key. Dude was great, I know 99% of us in the comments including me can’t play like him

George is undoubtedly an innovative guitarist in all areas.

1. The End (Paul, George, John) 2. Something (George) 3. While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Clapton) 4. Taxman (Paul) 5. Let It Be (George) .

I'm a Beatles nut and I am just SO impressed with how well you managed to get the ***exact*** phrasing and nuance in each solo. Came in expecting just another meh Beatles countdown video from the suggested sidebar and you absolutely blew me away. You've certainly got a well-deserved sub from me.

Having Beatles TOP 10 list should be illegal, 10 just won't do it.

George was one of the first guitarists I really looked up to when I was younger and he’s still one of my biggest guitar heroes, he definitely had such a unique style and his playing always fit the song

This was wonderful. It reminded me of how tasteful the Beatles were. Nothing superficial or superfluous, nothing overly flashy. Every solo suited the song perfectly.

The let it be album version is my favorite one. It really expresses what the song is all about.

I think that "And Your Bird Can Sing" is guitar-wise, the best song The Beatles ever did! George wrote the harmony guitar licks and taught them to Paul, ( much like Don Felder taught Joe Walsh to play the guitar duel at the end of "Hotel California".) As a guitarist myself, I was, and still am, in awe of George's subtle, yet effective style. Very understated.

ジョージは本当に最高です。ジョージ独特の良さがあります。Let it be では、やはりアルバム・ヴァージョンが最高です。

The Let it Be solo (especially the album version) is really underrated, j think bc the song itself is so great, that the solo gets overlooked.

Yer Blues is def one of their best guitar solos, it's so unusual and memorable

森田さん、すごい！！！ 素晴らしい演奏です、おめでとうございます！ 感激しました。 ペルーからよろしく。

Now for the next 100 plus!

Those online guitar “experts” who knock Harrison should give the solo to “Old Brown Shoe” a whirl. It’s hard as hell.

They're Talent was unbelievable. (And this guy is good too.) The Beatles will live forever.

And Your Bird Can Sing at 1:10 , 55 years and I still love that intro!

I think the I Dig a Pony lead is absolutely amazing and without doubt is my favorite Beatles guitar lead. It proves you don't have to play loud, distorted, aggressive, and fast to be bad ass, so much passion and feel in that lead its insane - and this is coming from a huge Page/Hendrix fan

Amazing how you get the exact tones.

The Album Let it Be solo is the best one.

Excellent video, well played, thank you. George's solo on the end of The End is pure genius.

I absolutely loved that you respected the final stretch of The End. Awesome covers and tribute, thank you :)

It's George's birthday today, his influence on the world was greater any modern musician could dream of. Rest in peace George

They were all great guitar players in their own right, however George brought a lot more to the table. He was an absolute master of the slide guitar. He played it in standard tuning which is unheard of. He truly was a master of his craft and is sorely missed

とても魅力的に聞こえました。トーンもイントネーションも、それにニュアンスが絶妙で、もっと聞かせて欲しいなあ。

I forgot to add...this guitarist' performance is a wonderful and accomplished tribute to George and the band.

can we just take a moment and appreciate this mans guitar

The guitar leads/riffs of the beatles is minimalism at its most perfect.

George is a legend if you asked me if you hear it firstime you wont forget it in ur head,the hook is always there in every single lead he played

As a guitarist, I'm always amazed at how very simple their guitar solos are, technically. But they're in the pocket, and fun to hear.

It’s “Something” for me ... the phrasing & melody of the solo is superb.

You missed: 1.I want you (shes so heavy) 2.taxman 3 good morning good morning 4.Tommorow never knows

Let it be solo covers never fails to give me shivers down my spine

Flawless rendition. You even did the two versions of Let it be and the guitar three-part "duel"from the Abbey Rd medley. Awesome!

You really have very cool guitars

I'm glad you included the very last electric guitar notes of "Abby Road." I'm not sure why but I've always loved them and feel they are very beautiful. That's how a great guitarist plays even the simplest sequence.

素敵な演奏をありがとうございます。12弦のリッケンバッカーのパートを2台のギターで表現された所はアイデアものでした。高校生の頃この動画を見ていたら今でもギターがひけていたかな。

Best covers of these solos I've ever heard. And I've been listening to players cover these songs since I was a child in the 70's.

Is no one going to talk about the George guitar?? So cool

Free As A Bird For the sad sounding, *massive* career finish.

When you’ve been hearing all these songs as part of the soundtrack of your life (my Mum has a recording of 3 year old me singing “yeah, yeah, yeah” - ‘She loves you’ of course, but I think ‘yeah’ was my full repertoire of lyrics - while driving in the car around ‘67), it becomes very easy to think of them as quite simple songs musically, cuz they’re so catchy & boppy, & the best songs are just 3 chords aren’t they? It’s not until we start to analyse them in some detail. Solid driving bass lines, powerful innovative drumming, complicated, difficult, but quite brilliant guitar parts, John’s ability as a rhythm player is second to none, & the 3 string players must’ve spent countless hours working these out. Plus they were performing incredibly melodic harmonies & backing vocals while executing their guitar work. & George was quietly inventing beautiful, sometimes ethereal lead lines, producing near miracles with the tech available in the early 60’s, & laying the path which artists like Clapton, Page, Beck & Hendrix would follow. And all this was wrought by kids in their 20s using just 4 instruments & some piano. As the 60’s went on they’d gain access to incredible new instruments, effects, techniques, recording & engineering kit, & the best technicians who could use the new equipment to add sonic textures & layers undreamed of in 1962. I’m loving videos like this one which showcase the complexity & brilliance of the music we’re so used to, & make us want to dust off the 33 1/3… actually no, listen to your MP3s & FLAC’s, the vinyl scratches too easily. Give ‘em to a museum unless you have the serious audiophile kit to do it justice

well done...I'm glad you put the two versions of Let It Be in there.

These are as well-played as I’ve heard anywhere. The brilliance here specifically isn’t hitting the right notes, it is expressing the feel. Very difficult and very awesome! Thanks for the treat.

I love the solo for "And your bird can sing" awesome

Wow. You absolutely NAILED every single song. I am a big Beatles fan, and I'm blown away. You could be in The Beatles.

Everyone should own 'Beatles - The Complete Scores'. Great insight into their artistry, from guitar to bass to drums. They always each played together for the song; the whole. So many play for themselves; the solo, showing off.

Thanx for the The End solos. It is so seamless and intuitive on the album that it was a revelation to me when, years ago, I found out it was all three, and played live.

Nicely played Kenji! The solo on the album version of Let It Be is the better of the two.....in my humble opinion. I simply prefer a "heavier" sound.

"And Your Bird Can Sing" - George Harrison and Paul McCartney "Get Back" - John Lennon "Can't Buy Me Love" - Paul McCartney "The End" - Paul McCartney, George Harrison and John Lennon (in this order) The others are pure George style.

George's solo on "Let It Be" on the 1970 album LET IT BE was and still is the greatest and the most touching guitar riffs ever..

The album version solo of Let It Be is so superior to the single version.

Wonderful your very good man, George was so under appreciated at the time of The Beatles even George Martin said he should of taken more notice of his songs but he was juggling John and Paul's egos all the time.

Not the most virtuoso guitarist in the world, however I always get the sense every note was thought about and felt it was actually composed and masterfully. It's relatively easy to learn a few fast licks and repeat them time and time again - harder to come up with something new time and time again but that is the strength of the Beatles in general. They were endlessly creative and never allowed themselves to become clichéd.

The simplistic genius of George Harrison!

The Beatles are my 2 favourite band and I know almost most of their song, you got them exactly right

ギターでこんなに、感動したの初めてです！！！

I think George’s natural modesty may him a better guitar soloist and made many of the Beatles recordings much more balanced and melodic overall.

Ah, that last, sweet note on 'The End'. It holds all the beauty of what they made together, as they are parting ways.

The second solo of let it be Is most interesting for me. Have more soul.

Wow, that was incredible. The Beatles were amazing at melody.

My favourite Beatle song is The End and you honored it.... Thank you. May all the world watch your video.

I've been playing for about 2 years now and always loved The Beatles. But only recently have I taken such an interest in learning some of their songs. Now I'm absolutely hooked on them. It's amazing at how well written all their music is. I never realized how good they really were until now.

I’m in awe of Morita’s skill.

Most underrated Beatles solo: Savoy Truffle

Love the Something solo

I love the inclusion of Old Brown Shoe! That is one of the most underrated songs by the Beatles

You nailed the solos. Great video! Something that I always appreciated about George's guitar playing, which was also true for Paul's and John's soloing (John created and played the solo for "Get Back" because George had quit the band in January 1969) was the precision of their string bending. George once stressed the importance of getting the accurate pitch when bending strings (I hear many guitarists, including big names, fail miserably at that). You did a fine job in that regard too.

Good job. Lots of great memories for those of us who were around when these "evergreen" tunes were first released.

The something solo is what got me to start playing guitar!

The end, Harrison’s part is one of the best melodic solos ever

Great job on the album version of Let It Be! That lead always struck me .

And I love her is such a great solo; it’s simple delicate and really completes the song

Bravo! I played in a Beatles cover band and did all those solos. With a few changes to position on the neck, I played them just like you did. By the way, isn't it wonderful how the Beatles gave us such a wealth of solos to have fun with on stage? I feel GREAT every thim I play these solos. There's something about them - the variety, development, and mixing of rock and pop that just makes you feel good hearing them. Good job! I almost forgot. Because I was the only guitarist capable of soloing in the group, I played BOTH parts simultaneously of AND YOUR BIRD CAN SING.

i can't believe 40 years listening to the beatles has never been a special thing to me george but today after 40 years the legend is thank you goes

John's lead on I WANT YOU was incredible.

John never gets credit for his solo on Get Back.

Taxman, for sure. And All My Loving is one of the sweetest little guitar solos of all time.

"The End" gave me chills. Great job.
