What religion is the artist who interpreted While My Guitar Gently Weeps by the Beatles into finger style guitar playing?
While My Guitar Gently Weeps "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1968 double album "The Beatles" (also known as "the White Album"). It was written by George Harrison, partly as an exercise in randomness after he consulted the Chinese "I Ching". The song also serves as a comment on the disharmony within the Beatles at the time. The recording includes a lead guitar part played by Eric Clapton, although he was not formally credited for his contribution.
Chris Freeman (Australian musician) Christopher James "Chris" Freeman (c. 1950–1992) was an Australian multi-instrumentalist and teacher who specialised in six-string and 12-string guitar for classical and flamenco music. At the age of 17 he severed the fingertip of his left hand middle finger in a car accident. It was replaced by a silver cap, which gave him the nickname "Silver Finger". He released three solo albums, "Thesilger" (1976), "Shifting Sands... Night & Day" (1978) and "Best of Chris Freeman" (1991). He also issued four albums with keyboardist John Shaw, "Chris Freeman and John Shaw" (1981), "Synthesized Orchestration" (1983), "Synthesized Orchestration Vol. 2" (1984) and "The Best of Chris Freeman and John Shaw" (1990). Freeman died in 1992 after an asthma attack, aged 41 or 42. Australian musicologist Ian McFarlane described him as a "[g]ifted multi-instrumentalist" who "garnered considerable praise for his work, but he never embraced the notion of mainstream acceptance".
