Washington , Jan 10 (ANI): Late Beatle George Harrison used to keep the bands iconic outfits and often tried them out just for funs sake, reveals pal Dave Edmunds.
In the late 1980s, the guitarist showed Edmunds, a whole wardrobe full of stage costumes from the Fab Four’s heyday
“I used to hang out with George in the Eighties, and I was often at his place to keep him company because he didn’t get out much, Contactmusic quoted Edmunds, as saying.
He narrated one of the incidents where Harrison, who died in 2001, also made him to dress up in old Beatles costumes.
“One time there was just us in the house. He started playing some Beatles songs then he said, ‘Follow me.’ We got up, went upstairs and came to a huge wardrobe, which he opened. There were a lot of Beatles suits in there - the Shea Stadium outfits, the silver suits with the black collars, said Edmunds.
He added: “There were also three Sgt Pepper jackets which we took out and tried on. We spent the whole afternoon trying on Beatles clothes. I was amazed at how small they were - these suits were absolutely tiny.” (ANI)
