Happy to take this one through GA review. I'll read through it and comment in the next few days. Paul MacDermott (talk) 20:50, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Just had an initial read through which seems ok. Good prose and everything sourced. I'll take another look a bit later, go through the checklist, ask for some assistance with images, etc, but it seems ok to me. Paul MacDermott (talk) 15:19, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

2nd opinion
I'll look over it within the next hour. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 09:49, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Prose has been checked. Is the size of Harrison's land needed ("George Harrison purchased the 33-acre")? I'm going to look at the images at some point later today. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 10:27, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for doing that, Yeepsi (and to you, Paul MacD, for all the above). With the 33-acre mention, it's not vital by any means, but it's a detail I'd like to keep if possible. I'd agree that mention of, say, the date the house was built, how far out from Henley the property is, particulars regarding architectural style, etc, on top of this snippet would simply be excessive; but giving the size sets the scene, I think, even if it needn't fully register with readers. Friar Park provides the inspiration for the song, it's where he writes the song, records the song and films the video clip (partly in the grounds), so my feeling is that the size of the property – or some sort of similar bit of info – wouldn't go amiss. The implication's there also, perhaps, that Harrison was pretty cut off from reality, in his 30+ acres at Henley, and the scene at Friar Park had a great deal to do with that – as mentioned in the article, George's excessive use of cocaine, affair with Ringo's wife, the duality in his lifestyle reflected in whichever flag was flying from the rooftop ... Like I say, I'd like to keep it, unless you're insisting it go. Cheers, JG66 (talk) 12:46, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
You're welcome. That's fair enough, I do see what you mean – the tiniest detail could mean a lot. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 15:41, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
Thanks again, Yeepsi for checking this out. I'll pass this now. Congrats again, JG. Paul MacDermott (talk) 19:06, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
Fantastic, thank you. I'd been getting a bit worried that the months had gone by since I put the article up for nomination, in December 2012 – not exactly in keeping with the New Year/"Ring out the old, ring in the new" theme ... Thanks again! Best, JG66 (talk) 19:56, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
