Peak of the Week, V. 120

Track: While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Artist: George Harrison (w/ Clapton, Ringo & Billy Preston)
Record: Let It Roll - Songs of George Harrison
Year: Recorded Live 8/1/71, MSG

Comment:  This is a dandy.  From “The Concert For Bangla Desh,” a charity event organized by George Harrison at MSG in ‘71.  I love Billy Preston’s work on the keys, and Clapton’s guitar peak at the end (w/ a nice contribution from Harrison) is legit.  Even Ringo gets into the action with a few solid drum fills.
