1974: On November 2, 1974, George Harrison launched a major North American tour, becoming the first Beatle to tour solo on that continent! Billed As George Harrison and Friends, the concerts included segments by Tom Scott, Billy Preston and Ravi Shankar. Unfortunately for George, the tour was problematic, to say the least. The former Beatle had blown out his voice completing the soon to be released album Dark Horse. He had vocal problems at many of the concerts, leading some critics to dub the shows the "Dark HOARSE" tour. Many fans also had issues with the concerts, growing weary of the long segments performed by Ravi Shankar. In addition, fans disliked that Harrison changed the lyrics and tempo of many of his better known songs, while leaving the classic Here Comes The Sun completely off the set list. All that said, this tour still holds a unique place in rock history, as it was the only time George toured in the US. Rumors abound that a formal release of film footage and concert tracks from that tour is in the works, but all that is still speculation. In the meantime, we'll have to make due with bootlegs from the tour. This post includes the only known soundboard recording from the tour, from November 12, 1974 in Los Angeles, 43 years ago today! Download this one and relive one of only 2 solo tours George ever embarked on, the other being his 1991 venture to Japan with Eric Clapton.

Is this the afternoon or evening show? I was at the evening show at the Forum. It was a better show then most give credit for. Thought the re-worded lyrics were a welcome change. I didn't know it would be the only time he would plat in LA...........
Back cover say's it is the afternoon show!
Thanks Speedy! I would be VERY happy to find the evening show
The numerous options for this show seem to have gone dead.
Can this be reposted at your convenience please?
