George Harrison had lousy handwriting. The title of Cream’s final chart single (co-written by Harrison) came from Eric Clapton misreading the song’s bridge as “badge.” The nonsensical lyrics came from conversations George and Eric had with Ringo Starr while drinking. The “swans in the park” line is an example. For contractual reasons, George used the pseudonym L’Angelo Misterioso for the writing credit. Clapton’s guitar is outstanding. One from my swimming pool days.
