Baffling. Baffling, Baffling, Baffling.

I really don’t understand why John & Paul are so jazzed about George’s For You Blue but couldn’t be bothered to spend five minutes on All Things Must Pass. - XMASTIME

I remember being outraged 30 years ago when The Anthology came out re: why they never properly recorded this song below for an album, and I'm still outraged today.
Harrison's first contribution to the Beatles' output was "Don't Bother Me", recorded in September 1963. His next contribution was not until "I Need You", recorded in February 1965. Asked about this gap in 1965, George Martin said that Harrison "got discouraged some time ago when none of us liked something that he had written". According to music critic Richie Unterberger, Martin was most likely referring to "You Know What to Do".
It's not exactly Something but it's WAY more interesting than anything they did record of his until Revolver. Dafuck was it with these guys who normally had such exquisite taste blowing it with so many George songs? Why was the ridiculously incredible It’s All Too Much never taken seriously?? 😡😡😡😡

It's not that they never gave George his moments, they just head-scratchingly chose some of the wrong ones.
