I played harp on a couple of his albums (recorded at Abbey Road, no less) and I can tell you that he's one of the nicest, most genuine, warm-hearted fellas I've ever come across. This was at the height of his fame, yet there wasn't a trace of look-at-me-I'm-a-star about him, though he was one. He even carried my harp out the the taxi for me (thought the cab driver was going to faint). I'm so glad to see this thread.
