'[SOPA is championed by] politicians who are proudly unfamiliar with how the internet works, but who are well familiar with favors from well-heeled copyright extremists.'

George Harrison on Phil Spector

'...Thirty years later, Harrison would reissue a remixed version of the album ('All Things Must Pass') on a CD box-set, explaining in his sleeve notes his feeling that some songs required 'liberating' from a production that 'seemed appropriate at the time but now seems a bit over the top with the reverb in the wall of the sound'. Harrison also paid credit to Spector.
'In his company I came to realise the true value of the Hare Krishna mantra'. Whether as an expression of universal love, or personal forbearance in the face pf trying circumstances, he did not specify.'
- Mick Brown: Tearing Down The Wall of Sound (p 259)
