who plays guitar on my guitar gently weeps
While My Guitar Gently Weeps The Beatles recorded "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" several times during the sessions for their self-titled double album, also known as "the White Album".[46] The recording sessions, which began in late May 1968, were characterised by a lack of cooperation among the four band members,[47][48] and by what Lennon's bandmates regarded as the overly intrusive presence of his new romantic partner, Yoko Ono.[49][50] In this atmosphere, Harrison had initially been reluctant to present his new compositions to the group.[51][52] Take 1 on 25 July – the version later issued on Anthology 3 – was a solo performance by Harrison, playing his Gibson J-200 acoustic guitar, with an overdubbed harmonium part.[30][37][nb 3]
