Death of capitalism, you have a good point about Harrison.
Without Harrison's understated influence on the Beatles, I doubt they would have developed in the way they did, particularly with the experimental stuff.

Both Lennon and McCartney had very different styles.
McCartney the romantic love song/ballad but Lennon's lyrics were far more adventurous, even dark at times and in true Lennon style, far more controversial.

If Lennon was alive today he'd still be cool, which is more than can be said of McCartney.
