The Concert For George brought together some of the world's finest performers for one unprecedented night of celebration. Rock stars, comedians and classical musicians took to the stage of The Royal Albert Hall in perfect harmony, united by one thing: a love for their friend George Harrison whose earthly life had come to an end exactly one year before. This remarkable book follows that story from the rehearsals, the sound checks, to the stage and beyond. It is told in 34,000 words from the mouths of those who were there and who knew George best including Olivia and Dhani Harrison, Eric Clapton, Klaus Voorman, Tom Petty, Ravi Shankar and many more. Most of the 450 photographs inside have never before been seen and include images of George throughout his life. The book is bound in silk-screened fabric over padded boards with bronze page edges. The motif for the fabric design has been taken from the original stage backdrops. Each of the 308 pages is master printed with extensive use of gold and bronze inks and full colour printing with image varnishing. The black and white photographs are also printed by four-colour process. The paper stock is an archival quality 200 gsm matt art. Included is one of the programmes that were distributed at the Royal Albert Hall concert along with an order of service tied together with an orange ribbon along. Also housed within the solander box are four facsimile laminated backstage passes, a poster with facsimile signatures of many of the musicians involved, and two hand-signed prints by Jill Furmanovsky and Richard Young.

This is No. 175 of 350 limited edition collector’s copies, each hand signed by Olivia Harrison.
