The much-acclaimed George Harrison tribute Concert For George is to be screened in a limited number of US theaters to mark what would have been Harrison’s 75th birthday.

Due to an overwhelming response from venues in North America, the film has already been booked into more than 75 theaters in the US and Canada, with the list growing daily. The International roll-out of the film is due to be announced next week. Abramorama, in association with Concord Music present Concert for George, remastered in 5.1 Stereo Surround Sound, beginning on 20 February 2018. February 25th marks what would have been the legendary Beatle’s 75th birthday.

On November 29, 2002, one year after the passing of George Harrison, Olivia Harrison and long-time friend Eric Clapton organized a performance tribute in his honor. Held at London’s Royal Albert Hall, the momentous evening featured George’s songs, and music he loved, performed by a line-up that included Clapton, Joe Brown, Dhani Harrison, Jools Holland, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Monty Python, Tom Petty, Billy Preston, Ravi and Anoushka Shankar, Ringo Starr and many more.

Directed by David Leland (Wish You Were Here, HBO’s Band Of Brothers and the Traveling Wilburys’ video ‘Handle With Care’), Concert for George captures stunning renditions of some of the most significant music of the 20th century, including ‘While My Guitar Gently Weeps’ (featuring Eric Clapton on guitar, Paul McCartney on piano and Starr on drums), ‘Taxman’ (performed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers) and ‘The Inner Light’ (covered by Jeff Lynne and Anoushka Shankar). Lynne, Harrison’s long-time friend and collaborator, produced the audio elements of the concert, while Clapton oversaw the entire proceedings as Musical Director.

Concert for George has been certified 8-times platinum by the RIAA since its initial release and earned a 2004 Grammy Award for Best Long Form Music Video.
