  • I heard George Harrison say he brought in Clapton as a favor because at that time tensions were high between Lennon & McCartney over who's songs got on more of the album (white album) bickering overshadowed what use to be real team work. George was fed up because his songs weren't getting any attention from the band & Clapton's presents would make them act more focused having an "outsider" amongst them & Clapton 's bluesy style Harrison felt fit the song more than his own...I would agree

  • @louthedevil2 Clapton played solo in the original song, but he didn't write it.

    The song and the guitar solo for it have been written by George Harrison, but he couldn't record solo by himself, so he asked Eric to play it.

  • oh man there they are they are both my favorite guitar players/singers in the freaking world it is great to see them together

  • Yep, Paul failed in the introduction, but take a look at the video of the Concert For George, he does it perfectly. /watch?v=rj4J6i_vw0w

  • Originally by The Beatles, ClaptonMusicVideo, not George Harrison.

  • Eric Clapton originally played the guitar on the album. They brought him in because him and George were best friends. That should be put in the description.

  • epic performance, amazing solo

  • @Wileylikethehawk

    tyvm :)

  • @macqster Definitely not the LS anymore. They are the VN pickups.

  • Does anybody know whcich pickups does Eric use in this particular guitar? LS Gold or VN?
