Left out “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” imo

WMGGW is one of my favorite George songs, but in terms of greatness it is knocked down a few pegs since what makes it so awesome was Clapton's guitar playing. Had George played on it I would rank it much higher than I do. Clapton killed that solo though. But by all accounts that's the kind of person George was...he didn't care about limelight and accolades and cared more about his buddies and thought it would be cool if Clapton played on one of their songs.

But the post I responded to was about his songwriting. I don’t think who played the guitar solo changes a single thing about the greatness of the song.
