It explains why the "Quiet Beatle" was the first in the group to rebel against the fame and turmoil and the suffocating egos of Paul and John. During his solo career he showed his true talents as a song writer and musician, but he never found true peace until the last few years of his life.<br /><br />I have always been fascinated by George.
