Title: Not Even Close To The concert For Bangla Desh !
Product review: The eight George Harrison songs, played by an all-star band, that are featured on 1971's "Concert For Bangla-Desh" album are nothing short of amazing. Sadly this is not the case here. There are certainly some moments that might warrant a return listening, but after editing out the poorer moments here, you'd be left with very little of merit anywhere near the level of the former live work. The main problem here seems to be Eric Clapton's very bland, & corporate sounding, backing band. Harrison is able to lift them above themselves on a couple of songs, but for the most part they collectively weigh down any momentum generated around them. I've got a copy of this that I should sell at a resaonable price...this may be out of print, and hard to find, but if you've never heard it...don't get your hopes up looking at the great set list...and if you don't already own it, get the amazing "Concert For Bangla-Desh" first !
