Ringo has shared a little-known story about the last days of George Harrison. Here’s what he told:
“I’m
emotional now thinking of him forty years ago talking about me on his
tape and thinking of me. The four of us were great friends with a couple
of side issues. And it was far out. So anyway, I didn’t know how to
act.
And then I got back to L.A., and I
grieved, and then, of course, you always go through the grief. And
George, the same. [He tears up; his voice starts shaking.] I’m such an
old crybaby. He’s laying there very ill — not long.
And
I’ve got to go to Boston, ’cause my daughter’s having an operation. And
so I said, “Well, you know, I’ve got to go, George,” and he says, “Do
you want me to come with you?” You know, he’s dying in a bit: “Do you
want me to come with you?” How many people say great things like that to
you, really give themselves?”
