Concert for George (DVD, 2003, 2-Disc Set)

Excellent Tribute to George Harrison

This cast of All-Stars could not have given a better heartwarming tribute to their friend George Harrison. It is so professional, and each singer and musician gave their ALL! We have listened to it numerous times, and certainly recommend to lovers of great musicians! We do watch #3 and 4 the most, as the first are from India, and we relate more to the latter. Eric Clapton did an amazing job of bringing it all together, along with Olivia Harrison and their son. It was such an All-Star cast, including, former Beatles--Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynn, and many who worked closely with George Harrison. I gladly give it 5 stars as it is EXCELLENT! Read full review

Great Sentimental Tribute

A great sentimental tribute to George Harrison organized by Olivia and Dhani Harrison with help from Eric Clapton. The concert was to benefit George's charity Material World Charitable Foundation. The music was mostly George's and the Beatles. Nearly one half of the performance was from Ravi Shankar and his daughter with an Indian orchestra. There are many talented performers at this event. It is well produced and performed. It is a fun and very enjoyable event. Read full review

This concert was a blessing. Thank you, George, Ringo, Paul, Eric , Dhani, Klaus, Ravi, Anoshka

George and all of these great people on the DVD have been great gifts to us all, but I think George started the ball rolling on so many charitable organizations. I was happy to see most of the artists he has been engaged with for the past 45-50 years.Read full review

The Best Tribute Concert of All Time.

On the one-year anniversary of George Harrison's death, all his friends and family came together to play a tribute concert to him. MC'd by Eric Clapton, it is a veritable who's who of classic rock legends. It starts with some Indian music symphonic pieces led by Ravi Shankar's daughter - then it goes into George's friends covering his favorite songs.

If you like the Beatles, or 1906's / 1970's classic rock, you will love this DVD.Read full review

Great entertainment

I first saw this on you tube and decided that I had to have it for myself on dvd. It is a wonderful tribute to former Beatle the late George Harrison, celebrating his life and music at the Royal Albert Hall in London. With super performances by Eric Clapton, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr,Tom Petty, Monty Python, Joe Brown and others. I didn't really care for the first half which was the Indian music by Ravi Shankar & his daughter but that is only because it is just not my kind of music but other than that, this 2 dvd set is so worth seeing. I have watched it over and over again. I don't believe that I will ever get tired of it. This is not to be missed.Read full review

Best concert EVER!

This DVD is in excellent condition and that's great because this is clearly the best concert of all time in rock history too! It's very touching to see George's best friends tribute his life in this way, especially with his son up there playing guitar along with the various band lineups!Read full review

Great Entertainment

This is a great memorial to a band member that I remember so much while growing up. George was always my favorite and to see everyone celebrate his life was wonderful.

Great concert

Two CDs included. One is the concert exactly as it happened (including 40 mins of traditional Indian music). The second disc is how it was presented theatrically, and it's actually, IMHO, a better presentation (except the Heartbreakers' brilliant cover of "I Need You" was not on that one). But it's awesome to have both versions, both worth watching. So glad I own this.Read full review

Great show and a great price!

I saw this on PBS and had to have it. Luckily I found an almost new CD for a great price here. This concert is just amazing. A magical production honoring GH.
