English musician

official live
album release,
after 1971's
Grammy-winning
The Concert for Bangladesh.
The album was recorded

in December 1991,

live versions
of Harrison's work
as a solo artist

of his best-known
Beatles songs.

reissue of
All Things Must Pass,

History
In 1991,
a year after releasing
the second
Traveling Wilburys album,
Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3,
Harrison was persuaded
by close friend
Eric Clapton
to tour Japan with him.
Although mindful
of his troubled
1974 North American tour
for Dark Horse,
Harrison performed
a series of
well-received shows
in December 1991,
which also featured
a short set of
Clapton's songs.
The experience proved
to be an enjoyable one
for Harrison,
whose set list
included a variety
of his
Beatles-era
songs alongside
selections from his
solo career.
It would end up
being his final tour
before his death,
though he had
more tours planned.
Release
A double album,
Live in Japan
was issued
in July 1992,
with production credited to
"Spike and Nelson Wilbury",
Harrison's two
Personas he Used
On The
Traveling Wilburys releases.
The live album
failed to chart in
the United Kingdom
and debuted on
the Billboard 200
at number 126,
its peak position in
the United States.
The album reached
number 15
on
Japan's Oricon chart.
