In honor of what would have been GEORGE HARRISON's 63rd birthday, here are a few rare tracks.
George's 1970 acoustic demo of "Cosmic Empire", a song which has not been officially released in any form. Features some very nice acoustic guitar work from George.
Then there's his 1974 acoustic demo for "Dark Horse", which is somewhat of a revelation after decades of hearing the rather murky over-production of the commercial version.
Finally, we have the live version of "For You Blue" from 1974. This gets posted a lot around the internet, but its such a fun track it really deserves all the exposure, so here it is again. WILLIE WEEKS was George's bass player on this tour, not long after RON WOOD's "Ive Got My Own Album To Do" sessions. In this version George sings "I loved Willie Weeks from the moment I saw him / He played that bass, that's all he had to do". Silly Beatle!
