I enjoyed several great public radio pieces devoted to the great man. I had the opportunity to meet him on his 75th anniversary tour, and though he is slight, meeting him in person his stature is tremendous. With George he absolutely change pop music. Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, and Vampire Weekend (not to mention countless others) would have been hard pressed to blend world music with rock. Gratitude.

I remember watching this in '97 or so. I think however, that I most remember the piece with Ravi. I recall buying Shankar's album at that time and truly loving the last track, where George was clearly audible. George presents himself so differently than Ringo and Paul do. No mugging, or incessant flashing of the victory sign. George is so dignified and stately. I sure do miss him. I spent spring break with Chris O' Dell's memoir Miss O' Dell. It was light weight but offered generous insight into life at Friar Park. I think of George a little differently now. It is worth reading if one likes rock star stories, which I do. Very beautiful.

George was indeed a strong & gentle spirit. Our world if poorer for his loss. Mark, I've never seen this clip...I've only heard the audio. Thanks. Long Live George I Like that thought, lennonista.
