I bought it over the weekend at a bookstore on Carmine Street in Greenwich Village called Unoppressive, Non-Imperialist Bargain Books. Although I was glad to see books by Bob Newhart aren’t considered imperialist, I must say the repeated playing of Peter, Paul and Mary songs was indeed quite oppressive.
Anyhow here are my ten favorite George Harrison songs.
