Ny utgave av Concert For George

Vinylutgaven av “Concert For George”

23. februar kommer “Concert For George” ut på nytt i en rekke formater, deriblant på vinyl. 

Konserten gikk av stabelen i Royal Albert Hall i London den 29. november 2002 til minne om George Harrison, som nøyaktig ett år tidligere tapte kampen mot lungekreft. Eric Clapton og Harrisons enke Olivia var initiativtakere til konserten. De gjenlevende Beatlene Paul McCartney og Ringo Starr var blant artistene som deltok, og dette var første gang en konsert der begge disse sto på scenen sammen var forhåndsannonsert. Beatlesfans kom tilreisende fra hele verden for å bivåne denne konserten, som var en verdig hyllest av George Harrisons karriere. 

Konserten var delt inn i tre deler:

• Indisk musikk med Anoushka Shankar og Eric Clapton.
• Humor med Monty Python.
• Klassiske George Harrison-låter med rockeband, fremført av blant andre Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Traveling Wilburys Tom Petty og Jeff Lynne og de to gjenlevende Beatles-medlemmene Paul McCartney og Ringo Starr. 

The Concert for George ble filmet og er utgitt både på dvd og plate. I enkelte storbyer ble den også satt opp på kino. NRK har vist den kritikerroste filmen flere ganger, og den blir av mange betegnet som verdens mest perfekte konsertfilm.

Luksusboksen

De nye utgavene av konserten kommer i disse formatene:

• Luksusboks i begrenset opplag
• 4 LP Boks
• 2 CD + 2-DVD Kombipakke
• 2 CD + 2-Blu-rays Kombipakke
