    Update (4/14/09) As we've reported, George Harrison will be honored today with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Our sincerest congratulations, George. George's widow, Olivia, and son, Dhani, will both attend. Just wondering -- given that Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell have been seen in Los Angeles in the last few days, might Paul show up, too? How about Ringo Starr? Yoko Ono?

    Tuesday is also the day that the new George Harrison musical release, will be announced by Capitol Records/EMI. This is certainly a big day for all George Harrison fans. And he deserves it.

    Update (4/11/09)
  • Yer Blogger reminded us he'd come up with his own idea for a George Harrison greatest hits compilation. Not bad choices.

    Update (4/10/09)

  • We've been wondering about that new George Harrison collection that supposed to be announced the day his Hollywood star is unveiled. Sources tell us it'll be a greatest hits collection. Which make sense. "The Best of George Harrison," though it has both Capitol and Dark Horse tracks, barely covers any ground, while "The Best of Dark Horse (1976-1989)" is what it is. We'll soon see.

    Update (4/9/09)

  • Louise Harrison, George's older sister, talks about her brother and shares old pictures of him in this UK Mirror article.

    Update (4/4/09)

  • Buried at the bottom of the announcement about George's Hollywood star were these interesting words: "and on April 14, Capitol/EMI will announce plans for a new George Harrison music release."' Stay tuned.

    (4/3/2009) On April 14. Dhani and Olivia to attend. Full details at the Examiner site.
