George Harrison w/Eric Clapton - While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Live in Japan, PRO-SHOT)

[@azbdizzy4176]

I just found this video when I read that George said this was better than the studio version. George was right.

Where did you see George say this?

Magical

[@adcharz7105]

PSYCHO GUITAR! Clapton does all of this without a pedal, without a whammy. Just pure skill, technique, phrasing, timing, control, and emotion. This is everything that lead guitar should be for me.

[@kangmanor-uz3wf]

Those vibratos are clearly carrying this solo. Clapton use arm movement vibrato which is sound more fuller compared to wrist movement vibrato because you can wobble the string stronger resulting in more space for emotion/characteristic.

[@Sean-if7rp]

Saikou!

[@metaspherz]

I am certain that George Harrison would've had an astounding career even if he'd never met John, Paul, or Ringo! He was always in the background doing his best and never complained! He was a REAL star!

[@firstnamelastname7473]

Clapton lost his son earlier this year, only makes the emotion and pain of the song that much better.

[@JohnRodriguezHDD-Tech]

Finally the video I was waiting for all this time. The best performance of While My Guitar Gently Weeps by George Harrison and Eric Clapton. These 2 guys made the guitars to talk to each other in harmony. George Harrison is amazing when he plays the guitar giving the song a special tune

[@tutedelosreyes1445]

Just like you I have been looking for this video when I first heard this version of the song on an mp3 I downloaded on a torrent website. In my opinion this is the best live version of this song. The guitar solo on this is absolutely stunningly amazing. I feel the emotion of the guitar weeping on every note as it plays.

[@rubbersoul9462]

I highly recommend the Madison square garden version

[@szn1951]

I absolutely agree with you. Yes, the best performance of this beautiful song. Prince's performance is also excellent, but Harrison is unfortunately not present. Beautiful version; beautiful song!

[@paulhart1056]

I’ve been listening to this version for years but with no visuals. It’s my favourite. Clapton’s guitar sounds like a soaring seagull while Harrison’s is more melancholic. A perfect blend. X

[@jamesnabower6751]

George and Eric's playing compliment each other so well which is why George asked Eric to do the Solo in the first place they just loved playing together

[@stuartcrann]

The irony here was that Eric took George's wife and yet music always kept them friends.

Glad this surfaced . There are so many great and differing versions but so many great artists but this is the most emotive, Eric really making the guitar weep and Georges gentle melodic refrains towards the end...just tasteful and beautiful. Eric looked so emotional towards the end. This clip brought a tears to my eyes...

[@kellysmith3628]

One of the best versions ever

[@Leonard00000000]

There's not much left to talk about Clapton, everybody knows that, so I must say George's solo here is really a piece of something. Talks perfectly to what Clapton is doing, not overtakes what the song needs and sounds beautiful as hell. As a teenager I used to dislike Harrison's guitar but now I can understand his playing better and well, the guy's a original and that's a huge thing.

[@martinanderson312]

What did you dislike about Harrison's guitar playing when you were younger?

[@Leonard00000000]

@@martinanderson312 Well, you know, even as a young Beatle nerd his "thin" guitar sound, the huge space between notes and how far he was from all that over the top long and noisy solos wasn't much appealing to me as a Mick Ronson and Neil Young fan. Same thing with Ringo, on the drum side. Nowadays I'm obsessed with Ringo's drumming and Harrison grows more and more everyday. Not just as a guitar player but as a musician in general Harrison is a very very special artist and demands some sort of special hearing to fully get him.

[@victorarena23]

@@Leonard00000000 LOL so you thought Neil Young was a good player and george not so good? Neil Young?lol

[@JJJZANESVILLE2]

This exchange bewteen you and Leonard (zeroes) exemplifies the real problem with how subjective...and how argumentive/mean things can get 'here'. We all have our backgrounds, our lives, our beliefs and our outlooks. And judgements and enjoyments. To call out others as WRONG is wrong, particulary on subjective matters. It's so sad. But, of course, you believe that you are right...right?@@victorarena23

[@jamesgillette7051]

Just watched this 1991 version, the 2008 party at the palace version with Eric and Mac, the 2019 version with Eric and Frampton, and I have seen all a bunch of older version with combinations of Eric and George, and Mac, Ringo, going back to Bangladesh concert. You can follow this with anything really Eric has done. Eric gets better and better at playing the older he gets and you can see his face, Eric gets happier and happier playing the older he gets.

@@markus5862 No one knows why they never released the entire concert. All we know that the footage they release officially, came from the in house video system. They saved footage from what was shown in the big screens during the concerts. GH's official FB page answered me saying they only "filmed" 5 songs. Which makes no sense. They probably think the video just isnt good enough.

Leonid dude it looks amazing!! Super happy for this!!! Such a good idea for them to film the screen. Now we have it to enjoy. Somebody gave me a kiss concert from 1990 on dvd that’s kinda similar. The show was directly recorded from the video/audio mixing board (where they edit the camera shots during the live show for the screens). I wish more people would think of doing that stuff.
