George Harrison George Harrison (25 February 1943 – 29 November 2001) was an English musician, singer and songwriter who achieved international fame as the lead guitarist of the Beatles. Often referred to as the "quiet Beatle", Harrison over time became an admirer of Indian culture and mysticism, introducing it to the other Beatles, as well as to their Western audience. Following the band's break-up, enjoyed a successful solo career, and in 1988 he co-founded the supergroup the Traveling Wilburys, with Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne and Roy Orbison. Rolling Stone magazine ranked Harrison number 11 in their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time .
My Sweet Lord” was the first single from George Harrison’s first solo album All Things Must Pass. “My Sweet Lord” became a huge success, reaching number 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and remaining on top 50 for four consecutive weeks.
Harrison was sued for plagiarizing a similar tune to The Chiffons' “He’s So Fine”. Harrison was eventually found guilty of ‘subconscious plagiarism’. The verdict caused a tidal wave in the music world with many artists rushing to add credits to their songs in which they borrowed similar tunes or were heavily inspired by.
The song also recently appeared in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and was part of the soundtrack.
