The Beatles: Revolution

In honor of the release of the Beatles Rockband game I am posting some Beatles videos. This is a cool clip of the Beatles playing John's call for NON VIOLENT revolution. It is also cool because it is subtitled in Spanish for all of my readers in Central and South America.

I must admit that I don't plan on buying the game, but the animations of the band are amazing! I watched a guy play George's Here Comes The Sun. The animation had the Beatles from 1969 playing in a golden field with all sorts of colorful birds and butterflies flying around. It looked great.

Billy Preston: Thats The Way God Planned It.

From the Concert for Bangladesh. One of the first huge rock concerts to raise money for a world tragedy. It is believed that concert, cd, record, and videos sales by 1985 had raised 12 million dollars, although it was a long process before most of the money could help the people of Bangladesh.

This video features Billy Preston, with Eric Clapton and George Harrison.

George Harrison: Something

Might as well finish the trifecta :-) A Cool video of George Harrison doing Something live from the concert for Bangladesh.



Wow! Here is a video of George Harrison with Eric Clapton in Japan playing Something back in 1991.

Eric Clapton: Late In The Evening

A song of Eric Clapton that was inspired by Pattie Boyd. Boyd was married to George Harrison when Clapton met her. He fell in love with her, and Harrison let her go to marry Clapton. Pattie Boyd inspired at least three hit songs between George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Harrison wrote Something, and Clapton wrote Layla, and Late in the Evening. BTW, if you play in a band it is important to know this song if you are playing a wedding, because almost everybody wants it as their first dance:-)
