While My Guitar Gently Weeps – The Beatles



Written by George Harrison.  Eric Clapton played on the track.  This song showed that the Beatles were far more than just Lennon and McCartney.

Harrison wrote the song, having committed to do so using the first words chosen at random from a book.  Those words turned out to be “gently weeps”.  A lovely story – particularly if it was true.
