Taking its name from the last track the Beatles recorded on before their breakup, I Me Mine is a nontraditional memoir by one of rock music's greats—the singer-songwriter and guitarist George Harrison. Interspersed with photographs and including an important section of reproductions of his handwritten lyrics accompanied by an explanation of each song, the book is a window into Harrison's artistry and ideology. The book also caused some controversy at the time of its publication: John Lennon was displeased that he was not given more credit as a musical inspiration or collaborator, Harrison felt the charged could be equally levied at Lennon. Fine in Fine dust jacket. (Inventory #: 6165)
