Was While My Guitar Gently Weeps written for Eric Clapton?!
Question: Nope. John Lennon wrote it.
Answers: Nope. John Lennon wrote it.
Yeah- John Lennon. A good old Beatles classic.
George Harrison wrote it, Eric Clapton played on the single. So I guess you could say it was written *for* Clapton.
George Harrison of the BeatLes actually wrote the song,he played lead guitar on album version,on a Gibson,les Paul guitar,the concert of Bangladesh,he played it on a super 400 hollow body,it's rated #135 of rolling stone's magazines all time 500 greatest hits,hope i was helpful.
One of George's best whilst still a Beatle, made even more magical that Clapton was a part of it.
