Storytellers - Don't Bother Me

[onothimagen]

The first song that I wrote - as an exercise to see if I could write a song. I wrote it in a hotel in Bournemouth, England where we were playing a summer season in 1963 - I was sick in bed - maybe that's why it turned out to be 'Don't Bother Me'.

I don't think it is a particularly good song, it mightn't even be a song at all but at least it showed me that all I needed to do was keep on writing and then maybe eventually I could write something good.

I still feel now "I wish I could write something good'. It's relativity. It did, however, provide me with an occupation.

---George Harrison
excerpt from his book "I Me Mine"

Is that you George ?

------------------
George in I Me Mine; 'I met Kissinger and Ford. Ford was very friendly, Kissinger looked like an Arab, talked like a German and was tanned all over, like Clark Gable, he was a bit like Charlie Chaplin, like a Rutle.

George,

I always said you were a very funny straight man. You were SENSATIONAL in "A Hard Day's Night," when you knocked the smoke screen out from in front of that ad agency and the "grotty" shirts they were pushing.

You know I type this with a big smile on my face...
