While my guitar gently weeps

This video features tribute to Harrison by Top Petty, Jack Lynn, Prince and more. Playing rhythm guitar is Harrison Jr. Dhani. He looks just like his dad.
The best thing about this song is the beautiful guitar solo by TAFKAP Prince. Prince is generally not considered as serious guitar player or musician and people think of him as a kind of freak.

Well Prince settles this question once for all times. For those who don't know it, Prince can play more than 30 instruments and his record company was so impressed by his talant that he was given full creative and production control of his albums when he was still a teenager.

I like his onstage moves, really really smooth.

Back to the cradle

"I have one bit tonight that I do - I'll mull over what I'm going to do when it's my turn. But Eric doesn't even think. Jump on him at any time, say 'Go!' and he'll take you to another level. Then if you say 'Once more,' he'll take you even higher."
- Andy Fairweather-Low, 2001

From the cradle remains in my all time top blues album even after ten years. And watching EC play it live is one up. I do wish to see him live atleast once in my life time.

Watch out the first sustained note in intro .. Go!


Andy's got it right on the head. Go God!!!

Chew on this


“Over-indulgence in anything is wrong—whether it’s practicing 50 hours a day, or eating too much food. There’s a balance with me, as there should be with everything and everybody. I’ve tried to keep it so that I’m able to execute the ideas that come out, but practicing too much depresses me. I get good speed, but then I start playing nonsense because I’m not thinking. A good layoff makes me think a lot. It helps me get both things together—the creativity and the speed.”
— Jeff Beck
