Love There That's Sleeping From his days as the "quiet Beatle" - a tag he quite disliked - to his immensely successful and critically admired solo career, George Harrison produced one of the most memorable bodies of music in modern times. His "Something" and "Here Comes the Sun" can certainly lay claim to being the best offerings on The Beatles' Abbey Road, while his 1970 album "All Things Must Pass" introduced new musical styles to rock and roll. Harrison was the pioneer in making mainstream rock a vehicle for religious convictions. In this respect, he is a forerunner of bands such as U2 and Creed.

His work as the group's record producer involved crucial roles as a manager, arranger, composer, performer and mentor. His importance to the Beatles' music is apparent throughout the three recognised periods in the group's career. During the first period, which began with their signing to Parlophone in 1962 and ended with the Rubber Soul album, he transformed them from a local club act into a good, but stylistically typical, pop group.
