If y'all make a vol. 2 You MUST include the "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" from Colby College the night that Harrison passed (11/30/01)... Simply stunning. Also a great version of "With or Without You" from that night.

I had made a "Slip Covers" mix a while back, I'll see if I can find it, if so I'll post it for sure.

one more...
