Harrison tribute cash to go to charity

Profits from a tribute single to the late George Harrison will go towards a long-standing charitable body he established.

His solo number one, My Sweet Lord, is being re-released later this month following the former Beatles star’s death from cancer in November.

Record label bosses at Parlophone said today that the proceeds will go to the Material World Charitable Foundation, which supports other charities worldwide which work with children and the poor.
