      Glad to see you back at it! 🍻
      Always wonder where you get these quality rare clips of some of our best.
      Been searching for one I saw live forever... been so long I forget if it was AFI or SAG awards type show with a tribute/lifetime achievement thing to Will Smith. I'm alright with Will, but Mos Def had an incredible freestyle more about everyone in the audience. Sure seems like that was a legendary moment you might appreciate.

      Yes indeed. We all miss you George. You were, and continue to be, such a wonderful part of our lives. We the guitarists, musicians and listeners of your incredible gift that you shared with us. My generation lived through the most dynamic musical era ever. We are so fortunate to have been here on God's earth at the right time to be blessed with the music in you, God's gift of music that HE graced you with and you shared with us. As a True Believer in God Our Father and HIS Son Our Saviour Jesus Christ...I do hope that you, in your heart, knew Yeshua for who HE is: The Way, The Truth and The Life. And no one comes to The Father except through HIM. Just like you, I as a young man followed the Eastern religions and philosophies on that long road that leads us to nowhere. I truly believe that you did discover that Truth of Truths before you left this world. You being a deep thinker and seeker of The Truth...how could you have not seen. Yes, I do believe that you did. That above all else is my hope for you, and all who truly seek the Truth. We will see you in Heaven my friend. And, BTW, say hello to my son, Jade, who went to be with Our Lord on April 6th, 2016. He is also a guitarist like you and I. Play and sing your praises to Our Lord along with that Heavenly choir. I'm sure the music is sweeter with you and my son playing and giving thanks. God Bless you.

Our friendship developed out of work when I was an intern/reporter at a TV station and he was a cameraman. Both of us were green as could be. Over the years we worked together in different capacities, making all manner of medical videos and documentaries. Our ability to use our divergent skills to create work seen by a lot of people transcended into our friendship.
    To this day I can't believe how lucky I am to have that friendship.

    “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” at
    The Concert for Bangladesh
    as they square off to trade licks at the end of the song, EC
    is completely subdued
    and humble with a big
    hollow body guitar,
    unsuitable for screaming licks,
    and with his eyes and smile
    he encourages George to
    rip it up with the white strat
    as if to say
    “This is YOUR moment to shine, not mine!”

    Most eccentric pair of Guitar Heros. Eric and George shared everything, a little bit TOO much. 🤦‍♀️wife?!?! Gotta love to love em😍🥰😂🥰
