[ArchivesCommittee] George Harrison in Benton

[Gorzalski, Matthew J]

This is the best article on the topic.  I discovered we've never posted about it and the pickings are too slim to make a short column about it and connect it to archives.  But it is interesting that he visited in August 1963, prior to Beatlemania in the US, and he could go about the area without notice. https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/charming-story-george-harrison-vacationed-small-town-america-180974593/__;!!DZ3fjg!6LD6OAonBivATqTmhjq_v4vD31hO3cL5H3wv-Hog-TN6vWgQEGtuR_uf52pzaYnjWb7WakDjE6qR5oGonU1kuxxSPXUf$
