True love (Your love)
True love (Your love)
True love, baby

She gives me true love (Your love)
True love (Your love)

Your true love (Your love)
True love, baby
That's what you gave to me





Your true love, baby
That's what you gave to me

If anyone could put a smile on George's face it was Carl Perkins! The Beatles absolutely loved the man. Let's not forget Dave Edmunds really killing it on vocals. Three talented vocalists up there having a great time!

@Bradydog-in7ut

It was Carl Perkins that got George back into the music buisness after a semi-retirement.

@magneto7930

@Bradydog-in7ut  yeah, I never understood why anybody thought he retired back then. He had a song out pretty much every year until his death. Retired from performing I suppose. I think his attitude was that he would do it for Carl. When he did the prince's trust concert he said he merely did it for Eric. I think he did something for Bob Dylan too. I guess when your friends ask that's when you do it.

@Bradydog-in7ut

@@magneto7930 After the Beatles experience, George had his fill of live performances. You had to be an idol of his (like Mr. Perkins) or a very good friend to get him on stage. He did a couple of live shows in Japan but not much more.
