Much as I love the final Beatles' song "Now And Then", I think this would have been just as strong a candidate for the final song... would have been pretty cool if, instead of "Love Me Do", they had included this as the B-side (or even better, made both songs as a double A-side)... "Now And Then" was a great final tribute to John, and this would have been a great final tribute to George... for that matter, I'm not sure why they didn't re-work a George song too, even one of his weaker songs like "Dehra Dun" would have worked well, given the context That said, Walrusz' version itself right here is an amazing tribute to George! He nails George's slide guitar perfectly, this sounds like it could have been on Cloud 9!
"Fear of Flying" is a cover of a Charlie Dore song recorded by George Harrison in the 80's in an acoustic version, that was played on BBC by Olivia Harrison. The version here has a studio backing added by Walrusz.
This is truly amazing work! You’ve made George proud, if I can say so. :) Also, you included my favorite George moment at 2:04 ... when he’s being interviewed for his 21st birthday and he tells everyone that it’s the interviewer’s birthday too. Sweet boy. :)
I thought I'd heard just about every song by George Harrison both released and unreleased but don't recall ever hearing this before. Did it ever appear anywhere commercially available? Great song.
It's not official, it's based on a demo recording that was partially played on the BBC a couple of years ago, just guitar and vocals, and the rest has been added (with much taste) by walrusz, I guess. Great work ! Original demo there : ruclips.net/video/UfFdIe0ljYw/видео.html
Great job, Walrusz. As some-body else said, it is like having a new Hari single. I am wondering, have you ever thought of helping George finish his version of Dylan's Abandoned Love? It probably could use a little love and care.
I've done LOTS of original music over the last 10 years or so, thanks for the interest. Here's one I just finished a few weeks ago:ruclips.net/video/Wgm_AqpBOL8/видео.html
“One dream that really sticks in my mind is where an aeroplane came zoomin’ down and crashed in front of me. Your readers might have guessed that ‘cos I don’t like flyin’! Anyway, the plane crashed with a big explosion, and all the fuel flew through the air for miles away. I jumped away and lay flat on the ground to protect myself, but all this fuel was aflame, and it landed on my legs.” He had started to speak quickly, reliving the event, moment by moment. I must have looked horrified at his grisly description because he looked up and grinned: “It was all funny, though. Me legs were burnin’ but they weren’t like hurtin’! I was sort of shouting: 'Ooh, ooh, ouch!’ and things, jumpin’ about all over the place like I’d sat down on a hot stove. All the hurs on me legs were burned off and me trouser legs were in tatters. But don’t ask me how it all ended. I think I woke up after that - 'cos I was feeling a bit warm, naturally.” He walked across the room and poured himself a Coke, allowing it to trickle coolly over the chunk of ice that bobbed up and down in the glass. “Me dreams are usually a bit mad, y'know, and I also think a lot about people I know in real life. While I’m having a dream, all these people are passing through the story, or just standing by, watching. I dream about weird things, like houses with distorting mirrors in them. Or people walkin’ around with pan-lids on top of their heads. Don’t ask me why. It’s all a bit funny. Another funny thing is, I dream about holidays a lot, like Paul. I’m always recollecting the times when me mum and me dad and I would go camping. That’s always good for a laugh! 'Ere, camping works out quite cheap, y'know. The cost is next-door to nothing, specially if you’re a hitch-hiker. I remember Paul and I lasted almost three weeks on two pounds, ten shillings (seven dollars) sleepin’ in fields and things. That’s for real - 'onest! More people wanna try it.” I asked him if most of his dreams were the laugh-and-be-happy kind, and he roared out laughing at the thought. “Well,” he said as he held onto his drink, slurping it around in the glass, “…you could say some are comedies - and some are thrillers!” - Beatle Dreams, Hit Parader (1966) (Source: harrisonstories)
Harrison casually recorded a bit of this Charlie Dore song sometime in 1979. I filled it out in arrangement and instrumentation in my home studio last year.
@@walrusz Talk about an understatement! You took a minute long demo and turned it into a very believable-soubding George song. The self-titled album from '79 is my favorite album of his and this would fit perfectly on it. Amazing work, Sir.
@@daveidmarx8296 Thanks Dave! the 1979 LP is my favorite too. The song Blow Away itself is one of my all-time favorite songs. And that is saying A LOT! It still gets me emotionally to this day.
Always love your work with George’s demos. Is there any way you could share high-quality files of your recordings, especially for some of the older ones that are not as clear sounding on here?
Send me your email address to my Mike Stratton jingles website and I'll see what I can do. Put Harrison's name in the title of your message to make sure I don't miss it.
@@walrusz I think you could turn "Tell Me..." into an atmospheric, quasi-instrumental cross between "Blue Jay Way" and "Marwa Blues". Your taste and talents are definitely to be trusted. You've done AMAZING work with George's songs!
@@walrusz Hope you've been well! Just had one more thought on TMWHHTY: Maybe its sparse composition could be joined up with the unused bridge sections from Paul's "The Song We Were Singing" home demo (where they seem like another song altogether), to give us the latter-day McCartney/Harrison co-write that never happened.
I'm thinking Somewhere in England, but it isn't an original song, it's a cover of a Charlie Dore tune. It could have helped Somewhere in England eliminate a bad tune though...
@@walrusz This song is so good, it may have saved Somewhere In England in 1980. Thus, All Those Years Ago may have been released in 1981 as just a special single due to John's death. Unless George decided to release another album in 1981, but I can't imagine with his thinking at the time about the music business that he would have wanted to do that.
Harrison recorded a snippet of this Charlie Dore song sometime in 1979 I believe. I filled it out in arrangement and instrumentation in my home studio last year.
@@walrusz Hi! I used the feedback form on the website the same day you replied to my comment. Hope you got it or should I use the email given on the website?
Harrison's people should get in touch and ask to put this on their official page. It's so brilliant
I would LOVE it if Harrison's people heard this!
I love if Dhani found and released all of his unreleased stuff!!

I Love George and miss him so much.... XXX

Great job, Walrusz, it's like having a new George record out. Appreciate what you do.
Well done...You capture the vibe of George and Jeff Lynn well. I always liked Jeff's full production sound with George's twang.
Thanks Jeff!

Wow this is a great song. And great job with the backing. Sounds totally authentic.
Thanks Matt!
I love this song. It's one of his best. I can think of several albums it would have been his favorite song from.
Always smile at George's appearance in the Rutles.
Beautiful ... Thanks for sharing walrusz - R.I.P. George

I love this song! Thanks Walrusz! ❤️🌹❤️ I love my sweet George!

Wow, great tune; first time hearing it. Thanks for posting.
Beautifuly ..GEORGE!His voice is so sexy!
Mmmmmmm😏
No one disagrees with that statement
this song has such a hold on me. when i first started to get into the beatles i found this and I’ve been listening to this since then
George Harrison è un eroe perché ha saputo sopportare Paul McCartney, che è un genio, ma che doveva credere al genio creativo di George.
Please do more of these! They are awesome
Lovely!
Yes YEs YES Walrusz, keep adding to these rare songs, it's awesome to hear these tracks fleshed out ;-)
Love Love Love this smooth song by George ❤

Hi Raymond, maybe Abandoned Love. But if I do another I think the next I'll try to do something with Dera Dhun.
@@walrusz Absolutely! That is happy that news, W. I hope you do. And then ... Abandoned Love! Cheers.
Love him
Great arrangement. Wow, if this has been in Shanghai Surprise I would have not been surprised.
Holy smoke, this is really good. Should have been the B-side of “Now and Then”…or even the A-side.
Wow qué hermosa quedó
