GEORGE HARRISON'S LAST PERFORMANCE ON A RECORD

 

 

"Horse to the Water" is a song written by George Harrison and his son Dhani.

 

It was originally performed by Jools Holland's Rhythm and Blues Orchestra, featuring Harrison, on the album Small World, Big Band (also known as Jools Holland's Rhythm and Blues Orchestra).

 
Recorded on 2 October 2001, the song is George Harrison's last performance on a record.

 
George only performed vocals on the track, as he was too weak from battling cancer to play guitar,[citation needed] and he died just over eight weeks later on 29 November. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Booklet:

 

 

He listed the song's publisher as "R.I.P Music Ltd" instead of his usual music company Harrisongs.

 

In the liner notes of some versions of the CD, the credit is "Umlaut Corporation."

Holland played the song in tribute to George at 2002's Concert for George, with Sam Brown on lead vocals. 

 

This performance was included in the film but not the official CD release of the concert.

In 2010 Norwegian band ORBO & The Longshots released their version as a bonus track on their Live 10 album. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Holland’s CD is sub-titled “….his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra and friends”, that’s because for each track he invites various stars to join him for a track each. These include Sting, Steve Winwood, Paul Weller, Mark Knopfler, Van Morrison,  Dr John, and Eric Clapton, amongst many others.
