This Guitar (Can't Keep from Crying), from George Harrison's Extra Texture (Read All About It), is adapted from his sublime 1968 contribution to The Beatles' White Album, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
The song was released as a Apple Records' last single in 1975 with "Maya Love" as it´s b-side. The single failed to make it even to the top 100, which was in stark contrast to the first Apple single, The Beatles' "Hey Jude."
A second posthumous release of the song, believed to be recorded by Harrison in 1992, was published over the Internet in 2006 as part of the Platinum Weird project.
