| The Concert for Bangladesh
Badƒinger is well represented in this re-release. Here Comes The Sun with George Harrison and Pete Ham is a highlight for me. Throughout the video, Mike can be seen quite often back in with the singers, next to Ringo on tambourine. Tom Evans, Pete Ham and Joey Molland are sitting/standing off to the right side of the screen and can be seen from time to time.
George Harrison organized this spectacular concert on August 1, 1971 at New York's Madison Square Garden to help and aid the people from Bangladesh with all the money raised destined to that cause. Along with Harrison the concert features Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston, Leon Rusell, Klaus Voormann, Badƒinger and an Indian music section by Ravi Shankar and a set by the legendary Bob Dylan.
