dbo:abstract
  • «Hari's on Tour (Express)» es una canción del músico británico George Harrison, publicada en el álbum de estudio Dark Horse (1974). Utilizada como cara B del sencillo «Ding Dong, Ding Dong» en Norteamérica y de «Dark Horse» en Gran Bretaña y otros países europeos, es el segundo tema instrumental de la carrera en solitario de Harrison, junto a «Marwa Blues» del álbum Brainwashed (2002). Harrison grabó «Hari's on Tour (Express)» en abril de 1974 durante una sesión espontánea en Friar Park con la banad L.A. Express, que había salido de gira anteriormente como banda de apoyo de Joni Mitchell. Fue la primera canción que incluyó la participación de Tom Scott, quien se convirtió en un habitual colaborador durante la primera y única gira que Harrison llevó a cabo en Norteamérica, como promoción de Dark Horse, junto a Ravi Shankar. «Hari's on Tour (Express)» fue interpretada como canción de apertura a lo largo de la gira entre noviembre y diciembre de 1974.​ Aunque varios críticos y biógrafos han señalado su presencia en Dark Horse de forma negativa, reseñas de la gira identificaron la canción como un tema de apertura efectivo para los conciertos. «Hari's on Tour» es una de las dos canciones de la gira que han sido publicadas oficialmente, con una versión corta incluida en el EP de edición limitada Songs by George Harrison Volume 2 en 1992.

  • "Hari's on Tour (Express)" is an instrumental by English musician George Harrison, released as the opening track of his 1974 album Dark Horse. It was also the B-side of the album's second single – which was "Ding Dong, Ding Dong" in North America and most other territories, and "Dark Horse" in Britain and some European countries. Among Harrison's post-Beatles solo releases, the track is the first of only two genuine instrumentals he released from 1970 onwards – the other being the Grammy Award-winning "Marwa Blues", from his 2002 album Brainwashed. Harrison recorded "Hari's on Tour" in April 1974 at a spontaneous session held at his home, Friar Park. A slide guitar-based composition, the track also features saxophonist Tom Scott and the latter's jazz-rock band L.A. Express, who were touring as Joni Mitchell's backing group at the time. It was the first Harrison song to feature Scott, who became a regular collaborator and served as band leader during Harrison's only series of concerts in North America, the highly publicised "Dark Horse Tour" with Ravi Shankar. "Hari's on Tour (Express)" was played as the opening number throughout this tour, over November and December 1974. Although music critics and Harrison biographers have generally viewed the album track in an unfavourable light, several concert reviewers identified it as an effective opener for the shows. "Hari's on Tour" is one of only two songs from the 1974 tour to have been released officially, after a live version was included on the limited-edition Songs by George Harrison 2 EP in 1992. This live recording was taken from the Washington, DC stop on the tour, during which Harrison met with President Gerald Ford at the White House. (en)
  • Hari's on Tour (Express) est un morceau instrumental de George Harrison, qui ouvre son album Dark Horse publié en décembre 1974. Il est également publié en face B du single Ding Dong, Ding Dong aux États-Unis ce même mois, et de Dark Horse au Royaume-Uni en février 1975. Le morceau est né d'une improvisation dans le studio personnel de Harrison à Friar Park avec Tom Scott et les musiciens du L.A. Express en avril 1974. En une journée (le groupe étant seulement de passage au cours d'une tournée), ils enregistrent cette pièce de musique jazzy, puis une chanson de Harrison, . Ce morceau est la première collaboration de Harrison avec Tom Scott, qui devient par la suite un musicien récurrent sur ses albums pour ce qui concerne les parties de cuivres. Il est interprété de nombreuses fois durant le Dark Horse Tour de fin 1974 - début 1975 qui reçoit un accueil assez froid. Dans ce contexte, pourtant, la critique a souvent jugé ce morceau très efficace comme ouverture des concerts. Une version live a été publiée en 1992. Il s'agit d'un des deux seuls morceaux instrumentaux composés par Harrison durant sa carrière solo, avec qui, publié sur son album posthume Brainwashed en 2002, reçoit un Grammy Award. (fr)

  • It's not true that the tour's been bad … In fact, the music is sensational. The people who say it's terrible wanted to go and see a Beatles medley … But they have to try and understand that George is an ex-Beatle. He has other interests, other musical interests … (en)
  • The band was one of the hottest bands I'd ever [been in] ... I mean, maybe I was the worst one in the band! It was a fantastic band, and the tape is a rocking show. (en)
  • [Harrison] had an idea and we just latched onto it … we just sort of ambled down the musical path until we came to someplace where we felt it sounded good. (en)
  • The main [concern] is that I've lost my voice … There's a good chance that on the first few concerts I'm gonna come out playing instrumentals. (en)
