The very first live stage show George Harrison played following the Beatles’ swansong concert at Candlestick Park, San Francisco, in 1966 was at Bristol’s own Colston Hall, exactly 52 years ago this month.
Without fanfare or fuss, George joined Delaney and Bonnie and Friends to perform at the premier city venue on Tuesday, December 2, 1969.
Playing guitar alongside his good friend Eric Clapton, he became a temporary member of the backing band for the popular country blues rock American husband and wife duo for just five nights on their UK tour.
