It was so nice to see Dhani up there playing with all his dad's friends
The kid has so many cool uncles...
Yes and father figures
Olivia, his mum, said of that lineup “It’s as if they had all aged, except George.”

Only George Harrison could leave an impression on so many other artist that they'd honor him this way... Lovely man indeed..
So true. He was such a great fella and so great of his pals to honour him. I was at this concert it was wonderful but so sad at the same time.
clapton is a good player just like harrason was
well Monty Daniels... you are exactly right
Monty Daniels that’s also why he is way better than John Lennon 🙃
❤️ Eric
This warmup was better than most concerts today.
That for sure! I wish I said that! LMAO
@@KIMBERLEY-Q a great big AMEN!…Let it be 🙏🙏🙏
Nail on the head.
Amen.
By far
Wasn't this a wonderful tribute to George, no egos, just great musicians coming together to honor another great and loved musician. Have watched it many times and love it every time.
agree 100%
I will never ever get tired of hearing Eric sing George's songs.
Pretty sure Eric put this show together and was the musical director
How is it that I have seen *ALL* the UA-cam clips of Concert for George and its rehearsal.... but everytime I see them again, I get emotional?
There's _something_ about this concert that triggers goosebumps(everytime) on me. Plus, I love all these adorable souls so darn much! Oh dear God.... here they come again, my goosebumps!
Eric Clapton has a voice like honey. As did George Harrison. I loved them all. I sang a George Harrison song at my sister's wedding.
Miss Robin Martz which song did you sing?
Toto Dank engine 420 it was a Beatles song, it was a long time ago, it was near 40 years ago. I’ll try to remember which song it was.
@@robinmartz9052 I hope it wasn't Don't Bother Me!
@@epipick lol...... Hahahahahaha
He hated his voice.....I guess everyone does in the beginning, but you learn to appreciate it. He had that vibrato thing going. Was a great voice and addition to complete the great harmonies of the Beatles
If you knew George, and were a musician, you wanted to play in this concert. Brilliant.
Always made me wonder why Bob Dylan wasn't there
He was touring in the US. He played Something as a tribute to "my buddy George" around the time of this concert in New York.
That, my dear, may be the ultimate understatement! From what I understand, they had to fight them off with a stick. Everyone who had ever worked with George wanted to be a part of this. George created deep, close friendships with everyone he met.
I watched my recording of this amazing concert last night, everyone who turned up and played were great.
Though I never knew George and never even had opportunity to see George in concert, the overall feeling I get from "ALL" that performed that I would have wanted to play as well.
I have the DVD of this concert and I am so amazed at all the love that went into the performances for this gig...Infact, this wasn't a "GIG", This was a gathering of LOVE and I seriously feel that in my heart and many times it draws tears out of me while watching.
There is ONE thing that I thought about...Whatever Bob Dylans reasons were that he was not there, I can just bet that John Lennon (Rip) would have been there if he were still around.
I love how Ray Cooper is always moving with the tambourine or any other of his percussion instruments. He’s always got his own party in the back! It’s very funny to see him in the actual show.
The way George is remembered by his friends in this emotional loving performance shows how precious he was. One of the real authentic creative personalities to be loved and admired forever!
Can't get over how many brilliant, famous, oustanding musicians, each with their own clout in the world, knew and loved George so much and valued their friendship with him so much. They all stepped up as one, for no other reason but to show him honour, homage , respect and take one more chance to spend time close to George and show him some love.
MAZ Z I couldn't have said it better myself. Nice wording!! They all have their own ways on how to sing George's songs. Its to bad we lost one brilliant musician on 10/2/2017 😪 Tom is with his 2 Willbury friend's making more great music.
This is the best tribute concert I've ever seen on any level. The star power was off the charts, they played tons of his best songs, and they all played and sang with conviction. George gave them a large library to pick from,but they just nailed it.
Clout?
@@valleyva4600 clout is northern English for someone held in high esteem.
In the actual concert when they play "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" Eric playing was soooo emotional......
Yh it just hits right at our heart😥😭😭😭
I agree. Especially the part where he was so much in to the solo piece that he accidentally missed the lyrics. Great, timeless performance!
Clapton is immense when he wakes up and goes deep.
And you may note that Paul McCartney was playing brilliant piano in that song. Aside from the opening notes, which were perfect, he also carried the piano backing track the whole way. The guy is an incredible musician.
that solo is the reason why he is the best guitarist of all time
One of the greatest concerts of all time, in memory of one of the greatest musicians, and gentlest souls of all time.
A wonderful concert in honor of a wonderful man. God bless everyone
The best concert film ever. All out of love for George. Couldn't get better.
Just great wonderful tunes
I wish I could have been there. What a line up. I still miss George very much. He was a kind and gentle soul.
I love watching Dhani play. It's so eerie. We can't have George anymore, but he's the next best thing.
Amazing musicians, what an awesome tribute to George. Dhani is the image of his dad.
I’m just obsessing over how much Dhani looks like George. He has the same hair cut as well which is making it even more cool
When I first watched this when it first came out, I couldn't take my eyes off him thinking how much he looked like his dad in his younger days.
I love how Billy has that same great, kind smile at the keyboard that he had in the studio in the Get Back Movie. He brought that album and the vibe to the highest point. Those songs wouldn't have been the same without him. IMO of course.
Once you know how impressive Marc Mann's contribution to this concert was, you can't stop looking for him in every song. Loads of eye contact between him and Dhani. A real pro with LOADS of different skills up his sleeve.
For me, he was the unsung star of the show. Amazing guitarist, got the sound right every time and note perfect too. Played the While My Guitar Gently Weeps solo better than Clapton!
@@dermotohalloran6482 Only problem with that is Clapton invented that solo for the Beatles, so they're all variations on his original theme after that, no matter how well they're played. EC's singing and playing in this concert is quite stunning.
Mann said in an interview years later that when he was invited, he thought he might play on like one song, but instead was promoted to a key role. Clapton obviously knows talent when he sees it, and was the perfect MD for that event.
Absolutely!!!
God almighty the greatest concert film ever. Just brilliant talent all around and everyone playing together seamlessly. Real pros but beyond that.
This collection of musicians is really reflective of the kind of man George was. When you attract these extraordinary musicians into your orbit you're living the right way.
The Last Waltz would like a word
It's so lovely how the love and respect they all had for George really shines through in this. I still can't believe it's 20 years since he left this existence.
It was a very memorable night. I loved every minute. George was there in spirit.
so nice to see George's son playing with these awesome musicians.
Thank you Jeff Lynn for covering George. So nostalgic
Jeff Lynne and George were magic together!
@@fabfour7397 and with their brothers Roy, Tom and Bob gave us more magic.
What a great group, superb talent. Good to see Andy Fairweather Low there too, a brilliant musician. A great tribute to a great man. George was unique.
Beautiful friends
It's Sept.15, 2020 .... & still missing the quiet Beatle. 🎼🎵🎸✌
Its 5 oct 2020...still missing
Dec 2020 and still a great tribute, rimless concert great George Harrison🙋🙌
N in in
March 06, 2021. This missing will be Forever! George, the real human-being! The nicest famous guy! The real LIGHT of the Beatles band!!!
Come on, he's going to come some day...
Dhani even stands & plays like his famous Dad.
Such A Blessing Is George's Son Dahni, .......Spit And Pop Of His Dad And Brilliant Musician In His Own Right. I Watched The Concert On Tv............Fantastic People ....Fantastic Concert...I Believe George Went On To Another Life...........He Certainly Left His Mark In This One In....Rock On Paul And Ringo.
George Harrison was & will always be my favorite Beatle. He is one of the best Musicians. A truly remarkable person.
He may have been the quiet beetle. He's definitely the handsomest beetle
Definitely feel the same
@@leesalynde2706 George also cared deeply about his spiritual life, and this affinity touched the lives of countless fans, who were on a similar path. . . . . Didn't make him perfect but made him a lovely--and most extraordinary--human being.
And me boy he shone brighter then Mc carney and Lennon in the end because he was with the best so he could be the best he was happy with the willburys because he had no one putting him down like the Beatles
This music has been such a balm to my soul recently. I'm glad to know George better through his music, and I'm grateful to Eric for this magnificent collaboration.
Lot of love involved. You can feel it. Just awesome.
I've seen this comment about this concert over and over again
One of my favorite shows of all time. Fellowship and love oozing from every note forming the perfect chord. By George, they've got it!
I love Dhani playing with everyone !!! Excellent !!!
This was so great to see, the amount of love and respect in that room for the music and legacy of George and all his family and friends, it’s truly beautiful. All Things Must Pass, and “by chanting the names of the lord and you’ll be free! The lord is awaiting on you all to awaken and see!”
These “rehearsals” are better than anything my band has ever done
How can anyone give this a thumbs down? Great sounding band, and lovely guys all playing for the love of George
GENTE BURRA NAO SABE O QUE E ARTE DE VERDADE LIXO DE GENTE
Just kidding!
We should all tip our hats to Marc Mann who absolutely nailed George`s guitar parts in this concert.
Totally!
Kevin Fletcher. Yes I agree. Marc is in the background but truly an artist.
So true. He doesn't have the ego, likes keeping a low profile. But OMG he plays guitar as well as any of the greats.
They brought their voices, but he is the one who nailed all the sounds and parts from the albums, really made it work. Taxman solo, While My Guitar, For You Blue, I Want to Tell You. MVP!
@@briankehew579 Hey, are you THE Brian Kehew or just using his name??
How can you have 470 dislikes for someone as great as George Harrison was? What is wrong with people these days???
It’s probably bc Clapton is in the thumbnail, it’s really trendy for people to hate on him at the moment.
I think what’s happened is the last year or two anytime he says anything dumb about some of the recent pandemic stuff people will dig up an old and already apologized and made right story of him saying some dumb misinformed and bad takes on race related stuff at the time, saying the word “wogs”(derogatory term) and such, granted and no excuse but he’d be the first to admit this was when he was at the lowest point in his life in terms mid 70s when he was all coked out and drunk. He has since apologized for that and has lived a life that has exhibited his learning from that time. There’s a lot of rock stars that have done a lot worse that have never made it right or sought forgiveness but bc it’s not documented and people seem only to remember the good stuff they for whatever reason don’t give Clapton lately the benefit of being a human being who learned from his errors and has made right the wrongs in his life to the best of his ability, the most anyone could ask for anyone else.
Though of course, I could be wrong about that reason, there are also just losers who love to hate anything Beatles related bc they see them as overrated but I just see those people as undereducated about the history and their importance on rock and popular music let alone culture and society as a whole.
Peace and Love to you and yours and everyone reading this :)
Hey, dislikes are from the year 2002
So much talent it’s a wonder the stage didn’t collapse. You can feel how the love for George and the music bound them all together in that groove. No egos. Miss George.
Part of an era of Great musicians who backed each other and you are so correct! No EGO. They are all as Great as each other. Plus they had Great music to play!!! Never to be repeated!
Well said. Thx.
@@jeremylloyds9301 No ego? Hahaha
I bought the DVD set when it first came out and never tire of going back to it, or finding here on UA-cam. What an amazing night of music, and tribute. How great it would have been to be there! 😎
george was a nice man . . . i miss him deeply . wish the world had more georges . it would truly be a better place ,
I would do anything to witness a jam session like this!! Amazing musicians all brought together by lovely George...rest in peace ❤️
I have never read a bad word about George that I can remember, and he sure had so many friends. he was not a person who made mistakes, but he was an amazing talented human being for sure.
This was a great concert and an opportunity to showcase the extent of great songs George gave us.And the guys honoring him just nailed it on every song.Say what you want about Paul and John ,but this was the best Tribute concert I've ever seen on so many levels.
Was a wonderful and very special event, and the rehearsals were amazing too, such a nice vibe from all. In this clip you see behind the drums at one point the late Bill Harrison, ( no relation )who was taking care of Ringo, a great bloke, & sadly missed........also in the clip,.....brother Billy Preston,....sadly passed away too. One of my favorite memories in a long road career, and certainly the most emotional one ,
musically speaking. Magical.
Such deep appreciation and love, Lee, must nourish you even now. . . . I'm sorry, though, that you had to experience the heartache of such loss.
When George brought him to the Let It Be sessions, Billy felt like "Wow!!"......and the Beatles all felt like "Wow!!" and the fighting stopped and they had a ton of fun while he was there playing with them.
You certainly had a privileged seat at an amazing event. Kudos to you.
So amazing professional artists... makes me humble 🙏
Great concert for George. Buy the dvd it is fantastic and mind blowing. RIP George
Jeff Lynne always shows up with the best of the best musicians :)
I can tell it's Ringo just from watching his hands. Unique musician as was George.
Listen to all those great songs. This is what made the Beatles so special, Not one, not two, but three incredible songwriters.
Some of the most brilliant musicians ever.
This is another reason why I love music
All good Jeff in good form this band never ages so good
Geoege Harrison touched my soul.....god bless you
Just buy the DVD or the download of Concert For George. You will not be disappointed.
You are 1,000% CORRECT!!
If you watch the full Video of the concert, look at the emotion on Eric's face as he plays While My Guitar Gently Weeps. I don't think he has ever played with such emotion and love.
^^^ THIS
Unforgeatble marvelous concert ⚘ the best that I Ever Heard ⚘ gorgeus ⚘
Yep. Superb concert and great video
Great to hear Andy Fairweather Lowe singing again, he’s often with EC and deserves some respect for his quality.
Totally agree.
Who's the guy with glasses, white shirt, and black vest who's seen singing lead a couple of times?
@@Cosmo-Kramer that’s Andy Fairweather Lowe - see Amen Corner etc. Regular with EC
@@martynadams2011 Cool, thanks. Any idea who the keyboardist is? Short gray hair.
@@Cosmo-Kramer that’s Gary Brooker - Procul Harum ‘Whiter Shade of Pale’ look for his up to date version live from Denmark !
A very good friend bought me this box set a few years ago, and it’s still one of my prized possessions.
Man I love this channel so much…good job whoever runs it. I love that George had an edge to him it comes out in his music.
One reason for me to go back in time - to be in that concert
Was such an amazing experience. I’m so glad I was there!!
Got to stay strong after surviving Covid-19 in California USA....it was 3 and 1 half years ago, thank-you to God and to George Harrison, and to myself for fighting an uphill battle for my life for clasping onto love, and keeping my memory, for helping to remind me of what i came here to find, its Love, not losing sight of a happy future for myself... literally listened to Beatles cassettes of hard days night and Rubber soul my first two tapes from 1997, all the time until Rubber soul got so beat up that it wouldn't play anymore, then my two tape Walkmans broke down almost 20 years ago, then I bought CDs of everything I could manage to purchase by the Beatles and also any George Harrison CDs I still have them all and also pre owned CDs not just new unopened ones, after i got my first CD Walkman in 2001 re release on CDs in around 2009 got My first Walkman tape player when I turned 9 years old, in 1999 wow so been listening majority of my lifetime, when i was readmitted to the hospital as i suffer from PTSD and i am also on the spectrum of Asberger autism also Adhd inattentive type while being bed ridden there unable to talk, in 2015 for 10 days, all I remember is literally trying to swim out of this sinking feeling of pain and a broken heart 💔 over a nice woman i fell in love with in band rehearsal during my 2nd year in JR College, around 2012, and i would tell myself that the movement i needed to swim to safety was on my shoulder from singing hey jude to myself quietly, and in turn would think of George Harrison song's always in my consciousness remembered him for being what he was an unstoppable person and unbeatable unyielding source of good vibes and peaceful happiness, very similar to my life, though it is what my opinion Is..... i will never discredit anyone true including myself, praying to the Lord to "give me hope and help me cope with this heavy load trying to touch and reach you with such heart and soul" and to "give me love love give me love give me peace on earth" a great song that really helped me heal myself back to good health, just by hearing the words. I felt so much gratitude for everything coming together for being inspirational during some of the most uncomfortable moments in my entire life including holding to hope when the tide surged in on me at the beach and nearly got washed away into a rip current, so many flash backs from that time been going off ever since...... before I went to the hospital the 1st time, before the lithium poisoning I had suffered from being readmitted and prescribed the bad drug combination, I will send a big thank you thank you to you George Harrison, but I gotta thank him for helping me connect with a higher power up above first, praise the good lords name and never forget my lesson's I have learnt the hardest way possible probably, and I've always listened to the amazing CDs in my collection im building,..... over and over, and over i listen, I still have every CD, and keep better care of them now, I feel like somethings are always worth fighting for and to try to have even more patience in my life because my payment has just happened last night in the form of a positive message recieved in good faith to believe in myself and will continue to gjve thanks and praise to the lord and keep fighting the good fight, George Influenced my life's recovery, it came from within me has been so positive and helped me so much to get this far..... this is love.... though praises for the struggles Ive dealt with will now be celebrated, with time will be increased starting from this moment on I won't be so hard on myself anymore.... the light has been revealed to me now.... life rolls onwards, ...let it Roll far into the future, because Love itself alone the ultimate Truth... ♥️
Fun seeing Eric Clapton as a Wilbury.
George's son Dhani's an 'Honorary' Wilbury. :)
He wasn't a😊😃 wilbury.
Eric was never a willbury . This was a concert for George Harrison,
.
How come he never joined them? 🤔
Jeff Lynne is Music Genius and a fantastic producer.
No conocía está pieza, una alegría descubrirla, buenísima, cuanto talento. Gracias 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
I keep watching this. I love watching them honor George. Awesome music.
This concert By George is wonderful. I want it everyday
Un grand et énorme MERCI pour autant de pépites.....un vrai régal....que de plaisir a écouter et réécouter
How do you get so many talented people on one stage and have everything go off so well?
George was conducting them through their heats and souls. They were all on the same page.
Terrific preparation footage thanks for the Memories and God bless all from Patrick
I could watch these guys all day
All that talent in there, amazing...❤️
I am a life long "Slow hand" fan and the feelings I saw during his solo made me cry. Bravo Gentlemen! Bravo!
He truly showed his love for the guy. They shared a wife and they still are friends that says a lot about their friendship.
@@peterritchie7944 They were lifelong mutual admirers.
Que maravillosa banda recordando a George Harrison 🎶🎸😍
God bless every one of them. i can see the smile on George's face.
Love to see these guys working things out. Oh, to be a part of that rehearsal!
Love the ending where Eric enjoys the finishes notes of See you in my Dreams....
Finishing with 'I'll see you in my dreams' was so perfect 🤗💓
You all are a comfort to my soul
Good personality, good star, sweet music and perfect artist. George Always showing what he only knows to do in his life, playing. Sempre mostrando o que sabe fazer pela vida.
I've always loved the Beatles. And i remember staying up late that night/early morning hours doing some work with Vh1 playing in the background when they announced that George had died after a long battle with cancer and i remember being shocked and cried. This world is so messed up we need music to escape our favorite musicians become be important as family almost.. The songs.. The voices that we relate too. Tells the story of our lives. When we have to start Losing those special people too. Sure makes living a lot less special
Amazing performance!
Dhani was the only one with a Beatle haircut.
You need the thick hair of a young man to pull that style off
So like his Dad
@@cherylbrown1038 Yes, so like George! His father would have been so proud of him. Lovely concert, but I cried all the way through it! Loved George and was so grateful for the contribution he made to the Beatles, to music, and to the spirit of an age!
well, that cant beat two of the people who made it a thing
Probably the only one who COULD have a Beatle haircut!! ha ha!
Great footage for a great concert
Ray Cooper is illegally underrated! The best percussionist in the world. Hats off to you sir!
Underrated? Sure? I think that lots of consumers do not know him. Musicians appreciate him - because he is the perfect percussionist
Natan Skorput agree with your sentiment but Ray Cooper is anything BUT underrated by the music community. He quite literally bats invitations away from serious musicians to play with them. It’s said the only musician he will never turn down is Eric Clapton.
@@MrNewc0985 I think I misworded my comment, he is someone whose name should not just be known by musicians but also by mainstream media, but then again, I don't know how many people would attend a concert just to go see the percussionist perform, but this guy could be it.
He's an even better pianist. That's where he is underrated
So how are these songs any better with that tambourine you can't hear? Tracy Partridge could have done it.
The sum of all the parts makes this unbelievable. Just when you say that's the best , it keeps getting equaled or bettered. Can't say how many times I have watched the video.
Canciones que no te cansas de oir. Son maravillosas.
É simplesmente magnífico ver esses monstros consagrados do rok fazendo essa homenagem merecida à um dos maiores músicos dos besouros inglês. Sensacional. Magnifico.
Gracias George !!
Por siempre !!
Te amo !!
Really enjoy the trip back to the days of great music
Way to go fellas, and to dhani may every happiness come to u
Spiritual soul, Pisces, filled with love and light and wee bit naughty when he could...lol racing cars, chasing women but George, we all loved you, shy boy too! xx RIP singing for Your Lord now, and John! xx
Loved George....Best Beatle, period!
I am in awe
Happy always your birthday George. Always remembered. Never forgotten.
The live concert perfomance was just transformative. For them as well as me. They all looked like they were having spiritual experiences. In the zone.
Hello Hannah
... come back to these vids from time to time 'beecause' ----> " this sh*t rocks - it'll simply never die " ! :)
... along with so many thanx for making all these vids possible for the ol eyeballs to view guys ! :)
This is awesome.... to actually see a video of them rehearsing... I don’t know how it works but whoever posted this,
Really dynamic !!
Great stuff , all you guys are so talented .
