The Concert for George brought together some of the world’s finest performers for an unprecedented night of celebration. Rock stars, comedians and classical musicians took the stage at the The Royal Albert Hall in perfect harmony, united by one thing: a love for their friend George Harrison whose earthly life came to an end exactly one year before.

This beautifully produced book is the story of George Harrison, from his early days right through to the tribute concert that celebrated his life, told by the people that love him.

‘We celebrated the life and music of the beautiful ‘quiet’ one from Liverpool who became a man of many words as well as worlds, a wise, coveted friend, father and true seeker… He did all this, and much more, and still managed to have more fun that the rest of us.’ Olivia Harrison.
