Paul McCartney's ukulele performance of 'Something' in tribute to George Harrison, live in Liverpool
We’re dipping into the Far Out Magazine vault to bring you a very special performance as Paul McCartney pays tribute to his Beatles bandmate George Harrison with a rendition of ‘Something’ on the ukulele.
When the city of Liverpool was announced as the European Capital of Culture for 2008 plans for a mammoth musical showcase begun almost instantly. The city’s musical contribution to the world is undoubted and at the top of their list to headline the show-stopping main event, The Liverpool Sound, was one man—Sir Paul McCartney.
One of four world-changing sons of city, Macca would return to his hometown for show for the first time in five years and provide a headline set at the city’s largest football ground, Anfield, the home of Liverpool F.C. The Beatles had long become a global brand but still, being back at home made this tribute all the more powerful.
