George Harrison

1943 George Harrison, lead guitarist in the Beatles.

The date of George Harrison's birthday is generally accepted as today, but sometimes disputed. At time of writing (February 23, 2004) Wikipedia says: "Until Harrison was in his 40s, he believed that he was born on February 25", and February 25 is what his birth certificate, his mother and his mother affirm. Despite this, in his 40s, the musician decided to start celebrating his birthday on February 24. No one seems to know why.
