- Harrison won his first GRAMMY after leaving the Beatles at the 15th GRAMMY Awards for Album Of The Year for The Concert For Bangla Desh. The year prior, Harrison performed "My Sweet Lord" on the 14th GRAMMY Awards telecast.

- In 2012 the GRAMMY Museum at L.A. Live hosted George Harrison: Living In The Material World.
