While My Guitar Gently Weeps, The White Album, George Harrison & Eric Clapton.

The Album was released November 22, 1968.

This song is originally from the White Album.

My Mother gave me the vinyl version on one of my Birthday. I never was a Beatles fan but loved this album. My favorite song, My Guitar Gently Weeps.

The White Album was also different from other Beatle albums in that it was specifically mixed for stereo, and The Beatles were actually there to approve the stereo mixes. They’d never been interested in stereo before as their working process had been to mix a song in mono as soon as it was finished, and then leave the stereo to be mixed a while later, almost as an afterthought. Stereo still hadn’t really caught on in England at the time so no-one, not even the Fab Four, particularly cared about it.

JFK Stadium, Philly Remembers.

Now, stands the Wells Fargo Center in it’s place as it was demolished in 1993.

It hosted Rock concerts, Pro football teams, everything that was special in Philly from 1926.

My last venue there was The Amnesty Concert, Sept. 19, 1988.

Pierre Robert of WMMR lists this as the #3, Top 5 Philly Stadium Concerts of All Time. I agree as there was  Sting, Tracy Chapman, Bruce Springsteen and Peter Gabriel rocking it together with collaborations among each other. So special.

Sting – Shape Of My Heart.

One of my favorite musicians, Sting.

Sting stated,

I wanted to write about a card player, a gambler who gambles not to win but to try and figure out something; to figure out some kind of mystical logic in luck, or chance; some kind of scientific, almost religious law. So this guy’s a philosopher, he’s not playing for respect and he’s not playing for money, he’s just trying to figure out the law – there has to be some logic to it. He’s a poker player so it’s not easy for him to express his emotions, in fact he doesn’t express anything, he has a mask, and it’s just one mask and it never changes.”

Shape of My Heart Songtext
