On August 20, 1999, at Gerhard Berger’s 40th birthday party, where George spontaneously performed (on guitar, piano and ukulele) with Andy Lee Lang & The Spirit. Some recollections from this event: George “asked the musicians where they were from and what type of music they would be playing. Gerhard Berger, however, destroyed the hopes of musical activities by George by saying that George always disappeared at Formula 1 parties once music began. At around 11 p.m., the performance began on the upper deck and after a while George stood among the audience. He seemed to enjoy the show (disappearing on a yacht, no matter how spacious it is, isn’t easy), since this was the kind of music he had played in his earliest days with The Beatles in Hamburg. […] After about half an hour, Andy Lee Lang said, something unusual happened behind him, where the bass player and guitarist normally stood, and a short glance revealed George standing there with a guitar, starting to play… unplanned and spontaneous, right in the middle of a song. According to Andy Lee Lang, an indescribable feeling. After a short while, George was in form. He sang ‘Matchbox,’ for example, and jammed with the band during rock and roll and blues numbers. […] Meeting and playing music with George Harrison was surely an extraordinary experience, especially because George was very uncomplicated and humble, even though he was one of the biggest music stars and legends of all time.” - Walter Roedel, roedel.at

A look back at the HeartBeat charity concert, March 15, 1986.

“I don’t like the idea of being on the road and having to be someplace, you know. I think at times, it’s fun being in a band, and it’s got a lot of energy and it can be thrilling, but… I just did a tune with another charity show in Birmingham, it was all the Birmingham bands — the ELO, and the Moody Blues, people like that. And that was fun, just to get up and sing ‘Johnny B Goode’ is easy, but I don’t really want to to go out there singing all my tunes day in, day out.” - George Harrison, The Today Show, April 1986 “That was down to Jeff Lynne. George and Jeff were pals. There hadn’t been any whispers beforehand so it was a complete surprise for the audience. And for the musicians, too. Even we didn’t know he was going to be there. Jeff had said that was a slight possibility he might be able to get George to appear but that’s all it ever was. George didn’t arrive until late so nobody saw him. He turned up at about 9pm while the show was in full swing. He hadn’t done any soundcheck or rehearsal. It was that last minute! The stage was packed not only with the bands but also the backroom team. They all wanted to be onstage with George Harrison. It was a thrill to see him singing with Robert and the rest. I was on a massive adrenalin rush, bouncing round the place.” - Bev Bevan, Birmingham Mail, March 12, 2016 “[M]y father gets up from his seat and tells me to wait for him with this candy man who had taken us to our seats. He walked off and moments after he disappeared from view suddenly he reappeared onstage carrying a guitar. I began to panic because this was first time I had ever seen my dad play an instrument, ever, onstage in my entire life. Out of nowhere, in perfect unison, they all kicked into ‘Johnny B Goode.’ I remember thinking, ‘What is going on? My father is being abducted by an intergalactic space orchestra.’ ELO has taken my father and left me behind.  The candy man assured that he would eventually be returned to us. So we made it back home together eventually and to my joy and surprise with ELO extraterrestrial wizard captain, the man with it all, Jeff Lynne. He had come to live with us on Earth and Jeff was soon a permanent fixture at our house.” - Dhani Harrison in his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame speech for ELO, April 2017 (x)

Apparently I've listened to Laurel Canyon so many times that my mind no longer permanently remembers the original version of "The Weight" and it only recognizes Jackie DeShannon's version of it. 😂 (Which isn't even my intention!! I really like the original version - honestly! But this is the only version of it that I actually remember now...)
