This is heartbreaking - and beautiful. Dhani looks like he's almost in tears. What a tribute to the late Mr. Harrison, who gave us so much good music, so unassumingly and unreservedly. RIP, George. I miss you every day.
Miss you so much, Cynaera... love this profound cover of a beautiful song... |

Thank you George where-ever you are. The concert with Clapton and Prince "jamming" this song was out of this world and
Prince didn't play 2nd fiddle to Eric. I still think Clapton is a huge schmuck for just moving in and taking Georges
wife .. GH and EC were best of friends,, so I guess George was a poor judge of character in both EC and his EX.
I'm not nearly as forgiving as I would have had "Louie" break every finger on EC's hands.....with a sledge hammer.
Why, was it your woman? Get a grip SOB. It happens, and this is not amazing reportage. Your passive/aggressive rant is counter productive. |

Very good, but not as good as the original studio version.

Jaysis - I don't think I've heard even one sub-par song in 5 hours. All sevens and up. Nice work Bill and Becca.

Well, if you watch the most wonderful "George Harrison: Living in the Material World" documentary, you sort of learn that really wasn't the case (the mutual understanding part). Clapton really does not come across well in that doc either. As my girlfriend put it, "that's the most I've ever heard him talk and I can't say I like him any more for it." I fear your girlfriend may be right. And as far as the mutual understanding conundrum, I think back to the description of George walking away leaving his wife with HIM. Superb and moving documentary. |

Time to go through the entire internet and remove every other use of the phrase "worthy tribute" as this eclipses them all and makes the phrase redundant ever after.
