'Way Out' George Harrison at Chiswick Park in London, England | May 1966 © Robert Whitaker
'Way Out' shows George Harrison during a cigarette break in the Chiswick Park filming. George wears his sunglasses and appears oblivious to the crowd gathered behind him, locked out of the park, but within spitting distance of him. It was the afternoon, and children from the local school were returning home – and realised what was going on in the park. A crowd soon gathered, hoping for a glimpse of their heroes. This dramatic photograph succeeds in epitomising, in a single image, the glamour, fame and magnetism of the Beatles. "Somehow one schoolgirl got through the security net. You can imagine how thrilled she was. It was quite touching – The Beatles were so friendly towards her and behaved like perfect gentlemen", Robert recalls.

starts shaking violently
From George’s handwritten lyrics to the Harrisong “All Things Must Pass.”
Q: “You once remarked that you were trying to write a Robbie Robertson kind of song with ‘All Things Must Pass.’” George Harrison: “‘The Weight’ was the one I admired, it had a religious and a country feeling to it, and I wanted that. You absorb, then you interpret, and it comes out nothing like the thing you’re imagining, but it gives you a starting point.” - Musician, November 1987
Q: “Where did the phrase ‘All Things Must Pass’ come from?” George Harrison: “I think I got it from Richard Alpert/Baba Ram Dass, but I’m not sure. When you read of philosophy or spiritual things, it’s a pretty widely used phrase. I wrote it after [the Band’s 1968] ‘Music From Big Pink’ album; when I heard that song in my head I always heard Levon Helm singing it!” - Billboard, 8 January 2001
“‘All Things Must Pass’ just shows the nature of the physical world. Everything is changing all the time. We get born and we die. But we are in this body, and we go through from birth to death. We stay the same — the soul is the same, but the body is changing. It’s the nature of… it’s called duality, and it just keeps changing. But everything passes except the essence of that, which is our soul.” - George Harrison, French TV interview, 26 August 1997 (x)
thinking about how one of the first big moves george makes post-breakup is to run away to new york to record the dylan sessions
