Happy 45th belated birthday Dhani Harrison! ☀️

“ It’s funny, because music is one of those things it is natural to go into. You hear it so much growing up, it kind of permeates you and eventually you spew out some music of your own.” ~Dhani Harrison

“I guess I got lucky, because I got George Harrison! You know, it's good music, and I'm honored to be a part of his legacy. And also, we made so much music together, and spent so much time in the studio at my house in Friar Park, in Henley where I grew up. The studio was directly below my bedroom, so my floor has rattled my whole life. I would always go downstairs and just see what was going on. I remember the Traveling Wilburys there. So, I was very comfortable in the studio, and I kind of grew up learning how to produce and play. For me, it was facilitated very much by my dad, and we were best friends, so spending a lot of time in the studio with him was natural.” -NPR music interview, February 28, 2016

“My son looks more like George Harrison then I do.” -George Harrison

“Shortly after Dhani was born Ravi and Alla Rakha took the train over to visit us [George, Olivia and Dhani], and I picked them up at Reading. They came over to see the baby, and Ravi wrote a tune called ‘Dhani.’ The name 'Dhani’ actually came from my study of Indian music: from the scale of Sa-Ri-Ga-Ma-Pa-DHA-NI-Sa. So he wrote this song, and Alla Rahka played on one half of the tabla, the bayan.” - George Harrison, Raga Mala (1997) -source from Harrison Archive ***

I apologize for forgetting your birthday Dhani, please forgive me. I had no time to make you this but I decided to give you a late birthday message, have a amazing belated birthday and thank you for everything that you do. By the way, you still look exactly like your father, George Harrison ☀️🕊️🎸🙏 and that’s awesome!

Peace and love Dhani😎✌️☮️❤️✨🌈🌻⭐️

There's a lot of conversation about how George was the youngest Beatle and how age affected the group dynamic but in order to actually understand any of this you have to realize that spiritually and emotionally George was the middle child. And being in the exact middle of four shouldn't even be possible, but he was just that middled.

Caught up in the thrill of celebration [after the telegram from Capitol Records about 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' being number 1 in the US], the bandmates took turns climbing onto Mal's back, with the big man parading them around the room. "They went mad!" Mal recalled. "They always act this way when anything big happens - just a bunch of kids, jumping up and down with sheer delight. Paul climbed on my back demanding a piggyback. They felt that this was the biggest thing that could have happened. Gradually, they quieted down, ordered some more drinks and sat down to appreciate fully what had happened."

On Sunday, February 9, the day of the [Ed Sullivan Show] broadcast, the band received a congratulatory telegram from Elvis and Colonel Tom Parker. Paul couldn't help ribbing Mal, saying, "You're his biggest fan, Mal, how come you didn't get a good luck telegram?" As the roadie looked on, "the whole episode ended up with the boys fighting about who was going to keep it as a souvenir."

As usual, the boys enjoyed teasing their roadie - at one point, George placed plastic cups inside Mal's shirt pockets, which the Beatle then irreverently filled with milk. In a tenderhearted moment, John announced to Mal that "after sarnies [British slang for 'sandwiches'], you are my favorite animal."

As with the other members of the entourage, Mal felt Ringo's absence [during the beginning of the '64 world tour] acutely. During their flight to the Continent, the Beatles resorted to humor, their favorite balm, to make light of their predicament. "The boys really had fun at the pilot's expense, as he didn't know Ringo wasn't present and kept asking for his autograph," Mal remembered. "George jumped in at one point and said to Paul, 'Go on, Ringo - give him your autograph. Don't be mean!'"

✨️ So Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr officially has the cutest -hey man it's been 62 years I'm the only one who knows all your shit- chaotic bestie vibes on social media✨️

I do not have the time nor wish to spend the effort to do this but I think the best way to get back at really stupid fandom discourse or annoying reblogs would be to create one of those "yourfave" blogs with something that's not inherently problematic but is broadly unpopular on Tumblr (eg: golfing; liking the Beatles; and similar behaviors) and then just repeatedly making posts with that person's favorite characters. Have all questions and submissions off on the blog. do not respond to any criticism in any way other than to check the blog of the person bothering you and then make a post saying their fave golfs. Do not think about whether this is an accurate assessment of their fave; that is not the point. The point is to see if they fall for the most obvious, idiotic bait.

Ringo, Paul and their favourite Beatle

One of the promotional appearances McCartney did make for Flaming Pie was on the youth TV show of the day, Chris Evans's TFI Friday. As well as Evans's own overexcited grilling, the programme had solicited questions from people who, at least at that moment, were famous. Among enquiries [from various artists], there was a question from Ringo Starr:

Who is his favourite Beatle?

"What did he say?" Ringo asks, when he is reminded of this now.

I tell him McCartney kind of dodged the question.**

"Oh no, Ringo corrects, "he should have said 'Paul'. I know I would've. He's my favourite."

** McCartney's answer at the time:

"That's not an easy one, Rings. Um, there's no answer ... and he knows there's no answer to that. I love you all ... I do love him very, very much ... but no favourites amongst my children."

"At school in London, I was quite chatty and sociable. I was curious about people and wanted to know their personal stories. On holiday, in seclusion in Scotland, I could become more introspective. I'd ride off into the hills for adventures on my new pony, Sugar Foot." Mary McCartney🍀🍀🖤
