Paul McCartney shares his birthday greeting via microblogging site Twitter to The Beatles bandmate, the late George Harrison, who would have turned 75.

McCartney remembered Harrison's birthday on Feb. 25, reminiscing the times they were together, as he shared a vintage photo.

"Happy Birthday Georgie. Wonderful memories," McCartney wrote.

The tweet along with the photo brought back a lot of memories for the fans, who saw The Beatles rise into stardom in the 60s. The classic English band became famous for numerous songs, including "Let It Be," "Hey Jude," "Blackbird," and "All You Need Is Love."

Additionally, Harrison's wife Olivia and son Dhani aired their own commemoration of their loved one through social media. The guitarist's Twitter account shared a video of "Isn't It a Pity."

"Olivia & Dhani invite you to join them in celebrating what would have been George's 75th Birthday today, by watching this performance of one of his loveliest songs, 'Isn't It A Pity,' here performed by his friends at the #ConcertforGeorge," Harrison's account tweeted.

The Beatles had become widely popular, and was even dubbed as the most influential band. Up to date, their songs are admired for being timeless. Members of the band were McCartney, Harrison, Ringo Starr, and John Lennon.

McCartney and Starr are the only surviving band members. Harrison died at 58 in 2001 after succumbing to cancer, while Lennon was shot in 1980.

Getting To Know George Harrison

Harrison was regarded as the quietest member of The Beatles and at the same time the most prominent one. His bandmates had been vocal about their admiration for the musician, describing him as "a beautiful" and "the greatest" guy.

Clearly, many people remembered the guy as being wonderful. His excellence as a person had transcended to his songs. Moreso, his works, which became available in music streaming platforms by 2015, had become chart-topping even after his demise.

Quincy Jones' Insults

Recently, The Beatles had been dragged into the limelight again after Quincy Jones slammed the band, calling them "no-playing motherf*ckers." Aside from this, he insulted a ton of artists like Michael Jackson and announced that Marlon Brando had slept with Richard Pryor.

His censor-less interview drew flak, which prompted him to apologize for his no-holds-barred revelations. According to Jones, his daughters were a saving grace after they talked to him and enlightened him.

"'I'm sorry to anyone whom my words offended & I'm especially sorry to my friends who are still here with me & those who aren't. These friends are like blood family to me," Jones said.
