Santana – “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”

One Flawless Rendition!

Being one of George Harrison’s most iconic songs (and one of the greatest tracks in the White Album), “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” has been covered numerous times by other legendary musicians. Add in the fact that Eric Clapton was invited to play, it just made everything more perfect.

I said, ‘Eric’s going to play on this one,’ and it was good because that then made everyone act better. Paul got on the piano and played a nice intro and they all took it more seriously. — George Harrison

Carlos Santana does his take on this Harrison classic along with India.Arie & Yo-Yo Ma and it’s beautiful. His music has always celebrated beauty and this cover version is simply incredible. Pretty awesome arrangement!
