Wow, they got George Harrison and Muhammad Ali for their PR? That must have cost a fortune.
- alricb 11y agoIf you look closely at the pictures, you can see that Ali and Harrison are actually holding 45 rpm records (large center hole) and not 16 2/3 rpm records (small center hole, like a 33 1/3 rpm record). The Highway Hi-Fi was discontinued in 1957 -- Harrison joined the Quarrymen in 1958 at the earliest and Ali didn't turn professional until 1960. In addition, they aren't even in Chryslers in the pictures: Ali is in a '59 Cadillac and Harrison is in a '64 Jaguar.
