I looked to see if this is a duplicate thread! I really did! 

OK, so the title is kind of self-explanatory. I was listening to “Octopus' Garden” earlier, and I thought, “Man, that guitar is really something! I wonder if there's a thread where I can harp on about it!” So I sought, but did not find, and I made my own. 

If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.

I think the awesome guitar of “Octopus’ Garden” may come from the solidarity George and Ringo had regarding compostions away from the Mighty Lennon/McCartney. I’ve always the Work Lennon did on Get Back and For You Blue , and George’s work on And I Love Her

I know. It's just that I feel super embarrassed when I make a thread and realize there was a thread exactly like it on the first page of results.

Helter Skelter has a pretty badass guitar part.

Being more of an acoustic fan when it comes to the Beatles, Norwegian Wood , I Will , Here Comes The Sun , Girl, Blackbird , Cry Baby Cry and the acoustic version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps are some of my favorites. I also find it slightly shocking that no one ever mentions how incredible George’s playing is on Till There Was You .

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 That's a good point. Maybe because the song is not theirs, but you're right. the guitar is amazing. heart

And John agrees… 9!!

Here comes the sun….. Scoobie-doobie……

That is a great guitar solo on the classical guitar. I wish George did more of those type of solos. The only other two songs I can think of with that type of guitar other than 'And I Love Her ' was from his solo career: 'Dark Sweet Lady' and 'Learning How To Love You'

The further one travels, the less one knows

I've been trying to learn how to do “Till There Was You .” It's hard!

Nice choice, Gnik – there was another thread where we had to chose our favorite guitar solo from George. I chose the Royal Command Performance version of Till There Was You .

To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

Ah, I didn't see that, so I'm slightly shocked that no one other than Zig has mentioned the brilliant solo. a-hard-days-night-george-10

I like Old Brown Shoe , the guitar and bass blend pretty well to make a pretty killer song.

Strawberry Fields and Rain are the two songs where I just can’t help but get lost in those guitars. Then Ringo wakes me up from my daze.
