This is not spam :D Just me trying to share what popped up on my FB- account via the Beatles.
They are streaming this for free via Youtube:

In celebrating George Harrison and the "Concert for George" 10th Anniversary, the entire "Concert for George" documentary film will be available to stream on the official George Harrison Youtube Channel on Thursday, November 29th for 24 Hours only.
Since I am a huge admirer of George and Eric and all those other guys participating in this concert , I thought it might have a certain interest also among other Forumists ! :wink:

I've become a bit of a hermit :) I'm recording and mixing what I've recorded and thinking about what equipment I should buy next...a good mic preamp, perhaps :? ???
take care my friend...

Thanks for the post! It really makes you sit back and reflect on just what a magnicent guitarist, singer, and songwriter George really was. He and talent of his ilk are surely missed on todays musical landscape. :cry:

Glad you enjoyed it guys :D Sure I did ! A bit surprised that the jeebs is a fan - I thought you was all about metal........
This is a striking show-off in great musicianship , IMO . Great players - and the opportunity to see some wonderful instruments - loads of Fenders . For instance the 12 played by Andy Fairweather-Low.....

Cheers !

Big thanks A-man. I had seen this once, years ago. Looking for all the Fender equipment is new for me.

Is the guy behind Clapton playing an electric 12 string Villager? It has that hockey stick head.

Sorry , mate - I am not that familiar with all the Fender stuff . The Villager is an acoustic ? I was more thinking of the one known as 12 (XII) - a jag-style electric . It has also got that funny headstock.
I admit that it is a bit nerdy trying to spot all the Fender gear , but that was not what it was all about to me - just occasionally noticed the gear while I during most of the concert tried to ''join the band'' with a tele on my lap :lol:

I own this on Blu-ray. It's a pretty special concert and very emotional stuff.

the talent on that stage is just incredible.

It was better than I remembered.
"My Sweet Lord" has to be one of the greatest songs in history, and what a fantastic rendition. Other highlights for me were "Something" and "Taxman" (TP still has it).
I need to own this on DVD.
Goodonya ...Mark.
