Forty-seven years ago (August 1, 1971), George Harrison and Ravi Shankar turned the world's attention to the issues in Bangladesh. The shows were organised to raise international awareness and fund relief efforts for refugees from East Pakistan, following the Bangladesh Liberation War-related genocide. The concerts spawned a bestselling live album and film that continue to raise funds for children in need to this day. We discuss the show with our guest Darin Murphy, and how he was involved in recreating the concert live on stage in Austin, Texas for its 35th (and 40th) anniversaries.
