CONCERT FOR GEORGE

A performance on Sky Arts this afternoon of The Complete Concert for George and although a few chokingly sad moments there were songs worth revisiting that I tended to forget not least 'Sit On My Face' by the Monty Python crew! But also the lovely Joe Brown who closes the original performance with a heartfelt 'See You In My Dreams' first he covered George's 'That's The Way It Goes' with beautiful slide by Andy Fairweather-Low a stalwart and work horse of these such gatherings and what an under appreciated star he is.

A cracking song from George's 'Gone Troppo' album played here by Joe Brown - who played on the album and was close friends with George (he was Joe's 'best man' at his second wedding) is one of the only songs I couldn't find clips of on YouTube which frankly is shocking . . . . . such a fine song and often overlooked for reasons best known to someone else!
