George Harrison
George Harrison, the youngest Beatle, was born and raised in Liverpool, England, firmly within the Anglican tradition. His spiritual journey later led him away from Christianity towards Hinduism, particularly the Hare Krishna movement, making him a devotee and proponent of its philosophy and practices. So, not a Jew, but definitely spiritually adventurous.
While his spiritual path took a decidedly non-Jewish turn, Harrison's contributions to music are undeniable. His songwriting matured significantly in the latter half of The Beatles' career, producing classics like "Something" and "Here Comes the Sun," which many consider among the band's finest works. He even produced films, including the Monty Python classic "Life of Brian," much to the chagrin of some religious groups.
His post-Beatles career included acclaimed albums like "All Things Must Pass," featuring the hit "My Sweet Lord" (which, ironically, led to a plagiarism lawsuit). Harrison also co-founded Handmade Films, producing quirky British comedies that often poked fun at establishment norms. He was a global superstar, a spiritual seeker, and a heck of a guitarist, but alas, no matzah balls in this lad's past.
