a day late and a dollar short I don't come down this in this area much shame there weren't any replies. 

Anyone seen the 'Concert for George' DVD.  if you don't have tears in your eyes at the end of that... you have no heart ..or soul.


I  remember the day he died quite well... had been a bad day..  a rough day... in a long series of bad rough days.  I remember putting on the album he did with Ravi Shankar.. and just losing myself... knowing he had finally escaped the hell ..that is life on Earth.  How badly I wanted to get away as well. He was truly freed the died he passed on.
