    George Harrison - When We Was Fab

    Another nice song (and video) from "the quiet one". Note all four fabs are represented.
    1. Ringo - in the video (and on the song).
    2. John - a guy walks pass with a copy of the "IMAGINE" LP.
    3. Paul - left handed bassist in a Walrus outfit!

    Little did we know back in 1987 that CLOUD NINE would be the last "solo" George Harrison album released during his lifetime.

    @Dwayne Cloud Nine is a great album I remember purchasing the cassette when released, When We Was Fab is a great tribute though also for me has an underlining melancholy and sadness.

    It occurred to me I don't own any Traveling Wilburys albums, I need to change that.

    Same here. I wore out my cassette version of Cloud Nine during my long commutes to grad school after work. As for the Traveling Wilburys, you will enjoy it. I loved the first volume a bit more than volume three (skipped over volume 2 ... very cheeky), but both are highly recommended.

    The story of how the album came to be is very interesting. Part the organic friendship of the five members and part the record label saying: "this tune deserves better than to be used as a B side. How much time do you need to do an entire LP like this?!"
