Radio / George Harrison and Pete Ham: «Here comes the sun» / Richie Havens: «Here Comes the Sun»





Y esta canción va para el carnal Juan José Durán Quevedo... Quien cumplió años el pasado domingo...Y como bono le tenemos también la versión de Richie Havens de 1971... Felicidades !!!...

Long before Geldof/Ure and LiveAid, ex-Beatle George Harrison was the first to organise a benefit concert. In this instance for the famine of Bangla Desh. This clip from the Madison square Garden benefit concert of 1971.

George, and the late Pete Ham perfromed a magical and inspirational rendition of Georges
composition: "Here comes the sun", from the Beatles Abbey Road album.

This performance by two masterful musicians of a simple but entrancing song is all the more sad because neither musician is with us now.
