 Since 1965 , George Harrison and his wife , Pattie Boyd , had lived in Kinfauns in Surrey , south of London . The house was a bungalow and too small to accommodate a home recording studio , so the couple began a year @-@ long search for a larger property , concentrating on an area west of London encompassing the counties of Berkshire and Oxfordshire . In January 1970 , Harrison purchased the 120 @-@ room Friar Park , set on 33 acres of land , just west of Henley @-@ on @-@ Thames . Previously the home of an order of Roman Catholic nuns , the Salesians of Don Bosco , the four @-@ storey house and its grounds were in a dilapidated state , and it was not until the start of March that the Harrisons moved from a worker 's cottage and into the main residence .

 The connection developed in May 1966 , when Harrison , Lennon and Paul McCartney visited Dylan in his London hotel , midway through his controversial world tour with backing band the Hawks . According to musicologist Ian MacDonald , Dylan 's relationship with Lennon was a testy , competitive one at times , and Dylan was " cooler " towards McCartney , whose best @-@ known songs he regarded as " sell @-@ outs to soft pop " ; but in producer Bob Johnston 's estimation , Lennon , Harrison and McCartney entered the hotel suite as members of the Beatles and departed as three distinct individuals , such was Dylan 's philosophical influence on fellow songwriters at the time . Following his creative peak in mid 1966 with the Blonde on Blonde double album , Dylan retired to Bearsville , New York , accompanied by the Hawks ( soon to become the Band ) , in order to recuperate from a motorcycle crash and raise a family with his wife , Sara Lownds . Little was heard from him throughout 1967 – 68 , a situation that added to his mystique as music critics and fans awaited his return .

 His practice of dividing his time between Britain and America caused Wodehouse difficulties with the tax authorities of both countries . Both the UK Inland Revenue and the US Internal Revenue Service sought to tax him as a resident . After lengthy negotiations the matter was settled , but the Wodehouses decided to change their residential status beyond doubt by moving to France , where they bought a house near Le Touquet in northern France .

 Harrison was alone with his mother at the end , author Joshua Greene writes , and when she began to slip into unconsciousness , he " put down the book and began chanting softly into her ear " . Inglis views the lyrics to " Deep Blue " as exemplifying Harrison 's " fondness for family " . Pattie Boyd , Harrison 's wife at the time , recalls that Louise had withheld the seriousness of her condition from him for eight weeks before September 1969 , " in case George was busy " with his career , and that , following her death , Harrison was anxious about how his father would manage alone . Keen to strengthen the familial bond , Harrison invited his brothers Harold and Pete to live on his Friar Park estate in Oxfordshire , along with their father .
