A musician needs a muse. George Harrison and Eric Clapton found her in Pattie Boyd. Here are five of the best known songs that she is said to have inspired. If you don't love at least four of these five, you need a major soul adjustment. Frank Sinatra famously said of George Harrison's "Something" that it "was the best love song ever written." He ought to know.
Isn't it a Pity
Wonderful Tonight
Layla (The best part starts at 3:13 the poignancy of which still rends my soul the way it did 54 years ago)
Bell Bottom Blues ("If I could choose a place to die, it would be in your arms . . . .")
