I find him cloying, annoying, and always hogging the spotlight at those superstar charity concert confabs. Yet Paul is absolutely perrrrfect in this concert. Respectful, moved and moving. His version of All Things Must Pass brought a tear to both his and my eyes. He rocks on the piano intro to My Guitar Gently Weeps. Concert for George is a must see for any George fan (or Paul, Clapton, Jeff Lynne, Ringo, Tom Petty, Billy Preston fan). The rest of the band is fairly stellar too: Chris Stainton, Jim Keltner, Henry Spinetti, Klaus Voorman, Jim Capaldi, Gary Brooker from Procul Harem, Dhani Harrison (clone of George---eeeeerrrriiiee), Andy Fairweather-Low, and a bunch of young guys who played with George in later years. Ravi Shankar's sitar playing daughter is the hottest Indian chick ever. DO NOT MISS THIS DVD. EGBH ------------------------------ From: "RickNBarbInSD" Subject: Re: What is a good "B" rated movie?
