George Harrison would have been 81 years old today.  Sadly, he was taken from us at far too young an age.  It only seems appropriate to honor him with today’s music video of the day.

When We Was Fab, which appeared on Harrison’s album Cloud Nine, was one of the many songs that the surviving Beatles wrote about their time as members of the world’s greatest band.  For the music video, Ringo Starr made an appearance, as did old Harrison friends like Elton John and Jeff Lynne.  It has been rumored that Paul Simon also appears in the video but directors Godley & Creme have both denied that Simon was present during filming.  Godley & Creme were known for their technically innovative music videos and I remember that the effects in When We Was Fab, as simple as they seem today, were considered to be ground-breaking when the video was first released.

Enjoy!
