Don't Occupy The Sour Milk Sea

Glenn Reynolds reminds us of this classic song; he suggests the Occupy folk should take George Harrison's advice and get along.



Here the author explains the song, and it sure does fit with Mr. Reynolds advice.

GEORGE HARRISON says '… I wrote Sour Milk Sea in Rishikesh, India. I never actually recorded the song--it was done by Jackie Lomax on his album IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT?. Anyway, it's based on Vishvasara Tantra, from Tantric art………'what is here is elsewhere, what is not here is nowhere'……… it's a picture, and the picture is called Sour Milk Sea - Kalladadi Samudra in Sanskrit. I used Sour Milk Sea as the idea of - if you're in the shit, don't go around moaning about it: do something about it…'

I just finished the book about the great rock keyboard player who appears on this song, if you also admire his work you should read and on piano...Nicky Hopkins by Julian Dawson.


And, congratulations to Sir Paul on his recent marriage. I wish you both much happiness!
