Sunday, 1 August 1971. George Harrison meets at the Madison Square Garden in new york to 35 musicians of the highest row to help the refugees from East Pakistan, victims of the fearful rains. Sala But Madrid, December 1, 2018. To evoke an event of such dimensions requires a great bringing together of wills, and no one better than “one of Bilbao” to such effects.
