Hi,Jerry,
I am wondering if you have any plans to add, Here Comes TheSun, While My guitar Gently Weeps and End Of The Line (Traveling Wilbury’s ) to Georges collection. acoustic versions?
Jerry says
Definitely HCTS and WMGGW amongst others (For You Blue, Long Long Long, Piggies, solo acoustic songs). Maybe some Wilburys too.
Louise says
To say I adore George Harrison is an understatement. He was the musical genius behind the Beatles for sure. Beware of Darkness is an awesome track as is Wah Wah. Would love lessons of those!
Jerry says
I’d love to do the whole of All Things Must Pass one day. Not sure when I can get to it, but you never know.
MikeCee says
George was always my favorite of the ‘Fab Four’, and he did some nice work solo, hopefully there are a few more of Georg’s work up your sleeve for the future?
All the best
Jerry says
Mine too Mike. Any songs in particular you’d like to see?
