When Paul McCartney introduced John Lennon to George Harrison, Lennon thought Harrison was too young. McCartney was already younger than Lennon, and the age gap between Lennon and Harrison felt too big. It didn’t help that Harrison looked younger than his years. McCartney once even had to put a disguise on his bandmate to make him look older.
