Concert for George Film Makes Digital Debut

Available Exclusively on the iTunes Store

On November 29, 2002, one year after the passing of George Harrison, Olivia Harrison and longtime friend Eric Clapton organized a performance tribute in his honor, aptly titled Concert For George. Held at London’s Royal Albert Hall, the momentous evening featured George’s songs, and music he loved, performed by a lineup that included Clapton, Jools Holland, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Monty Python, Tom Petty, Billy Preston, Ravi and Anoushka Shankar, Ringo Starr, Dhani Harrison and many more.

For the first time ever, this Grammy® Award-winning film is now available digitally and exclusively on the iTunes Store in both Standard and Hi-Definition. In addition to the entire concert film, the download will include an iTunes Extras package that consists of the feature-length Concert For George Documentary, three mini-features and an interview segment that takes the viewer behind the scenes of this historic event, along with a photo gallery. A new special bonus feature entitled “Drummers” highlights the friendship and respect between Ringo Starr, Jim Keltner and Ray Cooper.

Directed by David Leland (whose credits include the feature Wish You Were Here, HBO’s Band Of Brothers and the Traveling Wilburys video “Handle With Care”), Concert For George captures stunning renditions of some of the most significant music of the 20th century, including “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” (featuring Clapton on guitar, McCartney on piano and Starr on drums), “Taxman” (performed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers) and “The Inner Light” (covered by Jeff Lynne and Anoushka Shankar). Lynne, Harrison’s longtime friend and collaborator, produced the audio elements of the concert, while Clapton oversaw the entire proceedings as Musical Director.
