Revisit George Harrison's final interview and performance of 'All Things Must Pass'

We’re dipping into the Far Out Magazine vault to revisit George Harrison’s final interview look and performance of the song, ‘All Things Must Pass’ before The Beatle’s sad passing in 2001.

The interview with John Fugelsang took place in 1997 and was just another piece of television at the time. Sadly, Harrison’s passing from throat cancer just a few years later would mean this would be his last public interview and performance.

In the nineties, following the unprecedented success of MTV there came around a television channel which, instead of bringing you all new music all the time like the aforementioned acid-coloured behemoth, took time to sit back and reflect on musical milestones gone by. The channel was VH1.

On it they would host illustrious guests of the classic rock era such as Paul McCartney, Pete Townshend and Eric Clapton and often Fugelsang would allow them space to chat about new projects, reflect on old ones and play some tunes. He later said of the gig that with it he had the opportunity to host “the most incredible all-star concerts that nobody would watch.”
