Remembering Sky Saxon and Farrah; Jeff Lynne to complete George Harrison songs

Among the celebrities who died this week (Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson) was Sky Saxon, lead singer of 1960s garage band, The Seeds. Since those other folks are getting lots of attention elsewhere, here's a video tribute to him.

Fellow Wilbury and ex-ELO chief Jeff Lynne plans to complete a batch of unfinished George Harrison tunes:

A source said: 'George half-finished loads of songs and often just forgot about them. There is probably an album’s worth of material.

'Jeff and George were very close and worked together a lot in the later period of George’s life. He’s the right man to work on the material.'

Only recently, Harrison’s widow Olivia revealed she wanted to do something with her husband’s incomplete songs.

She said: 'There are lots of tracks. Some are closer to completion than others and with those I’d ask for help.'
