Eric Clapton Shoots Down George Harrison Rumor, Mystery Remains

(The Blues) Eric Clapton has stated that late Beatle George Harrison doesn't make a posthumous appearance on his upcoming album I Still Do, after a pseudonym credit gave rise to speculation.

A guitarist called "Angelo Mysterioso" is listed for the song I Will Be There, and the name bears close resemblance to "L'Angelo Mysterioso" - the title used by Harrison on Cream track Badge, which he co-wrote with Clapton in 1969.

But Clapton tells Guitar World: "It's not George. The thing is, the person wishes to remain anonymous. So we came to that arrangement and we both thought it was the best idea.

"I can't even tell you that much. I'm sworn to secrecy, and I hope he is too. But I quite liked it." Read more here.
