Boy, George

Last year I had a great laugh at Ray Davies dissing The Beatles/ classic Revolver. Davies took some shots at the album, although even at his "meanest!" he was still kind of charmingly Ray Davies and funny.

Meanwhile, George Harrison was nothing if not bordering-on-Tourettes honest. So here's a few of my favorite comments from him delivering his thoughts on some new songs from December 1965 (looks like 2 weeks after Rubber Soul was released):

"If I was them I wouldn't bother trying to get out of the Air Force."

"It's crap."

"Not a snowball's chance in hell of being a hit."

"It lacks something for the Hit Parade."

"It's crap."

"There are hundreds of people who are funny on record, but not this."
