MORE GEORGE

After posting on the “Concert for George” last night, this morning I coincidentally got an email from an old friend and former bandmate, who saw the show on a Bay Area PBS station last night, saying how moved he was by it. And I realized -- my post left all of that (!) out. And it’s true, the show really is moving, it’s all about the love of these musicians (Ringo and Paul and Eric Clapton and Jeff Lynne and the rest) for George and his music. And it really is nice to hear other voices sing some of those songs -- having only heard George sing them before, a different version can show off their beauty. (Though I missed George’s touch on his signature guitar licks and riffs.)
