Via Steve Marinucci: On this day in 1968, George recorded a lovely acoustic version of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
Have a look/listen:
If the video is removed, go here.
After listening to it, I asked myself this: What is it that is so sad and even fateful about the line, "I look at the floor/And I see it needs sweeping?" George turns a domestic commonplace into something haunting. Ordinary People anyone?
