Day 7 - 57 -- Repairs, and Replicas

Yesterday went well. The first phase of dental repair occurred this afternoon. Chips were repaired as was the broken tooth. It looks OK, but doesn't feel quite like it should. With a bit more polishing things may feel a bait better. Chewing is working better than it has since the injury. So the replicas are not quite as the original -- yet.

The evening brought the night class I'm taking. This week we covered 1966 in the life of the Beatles. The instructor noted that it would have been George Harrison's 77th birthday today. A limited number of Fender stratocasters were released for sale. These are careful reproductions of the day-glo paint job Harrison gave his strat -- often referred to as Rocky. These sell for $25,000USD. Previously the company had made reproductions of his rosewood telecaster.

In class we examined the songs from Revolver. This album showed the growing independence of the group members, developing and recording songs without the full group being present. To honour Harrison's birthday, I've chosen one by Harrison, that showcases his growing interest in traditional Indian music. Enjoy!

Love you to -- The Beatles (George Harrison)
