Live In Japan

Foreword by Eric Clapton
Written contributions by George Harrison and each member of Eric Clapton's band
Includes 2 Live In Japan exclusive CDs

This limited edition book and CD set is a unique commemorative record of George Harrison's and Eric Clapton's 'Rock Legends' tour. At the close of 1991 Harrison teamed-up with Eric Clapton's band and embarked on a 12-date tour Japan. It was George Harrison's first tour since 1974, and the first time that George and Eric had appeared together in a full concert since 'The Concert for Bangladesh' in 1971.

Live In Japan is a large format, full colour book featuring almost 500 previously unpublished photographs. The foreword by Eric Clapton explains how George was persuaded to return to touring after a break of 17 years. The first (and longest) chapter is written by George himself and details his thoughts and feelings on taking to the road after such a long absence. It includes George's personal recollections of the tour and memories of times on the road with The Beatles. Subsequent chapters are written by each member of Eric Clapton's band and reveal private moments behind the scenes, during sound checks, on stage and in transit. The final chapter by John Harris (who engineered the Live in Japan CD) provides a revealing account of working with George Harrison in the studio. The book also includes a full itinerary of the tour.

Live In Japan includes a double CD with original artwork and a total of 19 live tracks. A souvenir pack containing a laminated 'After Show' pass and Eric's and George's guitar picks accompanies this volume.
