"Woman Don't You Cry For Me" is a song by English musician George Harrison, released as the opening track of his 1976 album "Thirty Three & 1/3".
George Harrison
George Harrison (25 February 1943 – 29 November 2001) was an English musician, singer-songwriter, and music and film producer who achieved international fame as the lead guitarist of the Beatles.
Sometimes called "the quiet Beatle", Harrison embraced Indian culture and helped broaden the scope of popular music through his incorporation of Indian instrumentation and Hindu-aligned spirituality in the Beatles' work.
Although the majority of the band's songs were written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, most Beatles albums from 1965 onwards contained at least two Harrison compositions.
His songs for the group included "TaxmanWithin You Without YouWhile
My Guitar Gently WeepsHere Comes the Sun" and "Something".
Harrison's earliest musical influences included George Formby and Django Reinhardt; Carl Perkins, Chet Atkins and Chuck Berry were subsequent influences.
By 1965, he had begun to lead the Beatles into folk rock through his interest in Bob Dylan and the Byrds, and towards Indian classical music through his use of the sitar on "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)".
Having initiated the band's embracing of Transcendental Meditation in 1967, he subsequently developed an association with the Hare Krishna movement.
After the band's break-up in 1970, Harrison released the triple album "All Things Must Pass", a critically acclaimed work that produced his most successful hit single, "My Sweet Lord", and introduced his signature sound as a solo artist, the slide guitar.
He also organised the 1971 Concert for Bangladesh with Indian musician Ravi Shankar, a precursor to later benefit concerts such as Live Aid.
In his role as a music and film producer, Harrison produced acts signed to the Beatles' Apple record label before founding Dark Horse Records in 1974 and co-founding HandMade Films in 1978.
Harrison released several best-selling singles and albums as a solo performer.
In 1988, he co-founded the platinum-selling supergroup the Traveling Wilburys.
A prolific recording artist, he was featured as a guest guitarist on tracks by Badfinger, Ronnie Wood and Billy Preston, and collaborated on songs and music with Dylan, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr and Tom Petty, among others. "
Rolling Stone" magazine ranked him number 11 in their list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time".
He is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee – as a member of the Beatles in 1988, and posthumously for his solo career in 2004.
Harrison's first marriage, to model Pattie Boyd in 1966, ended in divorce in 1977.
The following year he married Olivia Arias, with whom he had a son, Dhani.
Harrison died from lung cancer in 2001 at the age of 58, two years after surviving a knife attack by an intruder at his Friar Park home.
His remains were cremated and the ashes were scattered according to Hindu tradition in a private ceremony in the Ganges and Yamuna rivers in India.
He left an estate of almost £100 million.

Don't Cry for Me Argentina
" Do n't Cry for Me Argentina" is a song recorded by Julie Covington for the 1976 concept album" Evita", and was later included in the 1978 musical of the same name.
The song was written and composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice while they were researching the life of Argentinian leader Eva Perón.
It appears at the opening and near the end of the show, initially as the spirit of the dead Eva exhorting the people of Argentina not to mourn her, and finally during Eva's speech from the balcony of the Casa Rosada.
Covington was signed by the songwriters for the track, based on her previous work in musicals.
The" Evita" album had taken 3 – 4 months to record, since Rice was not satisfied with the intensity of the initial recordings.
The song had a number of different titles before" Do n't Cry for Me Argentina" was chosen as the final one.
The song shares its melody with" Oh What a Circus" from the same show and lyrically consists of platitudes where Eva tries to win the favour of the people of Argentina.
It was released in the United Kingdom on 12 November 1976 as the first single from the album, accompanied by national and trade advertising, full- colour posters, display sleeves as well as radio interviews.
The song reached number one on the UK Singles Chart and earned a gold certification from the British Phonographic Industry( BPI), with over a million copies sold.
It also reached the top of the charts in Australia, Belgium, Ireland, New Zealand and the Netherlands.
" Do n't Cry for Me Argentina" was critically appreciated, with Rice and Lloyd Webber winning the 1977 Ivor Novello award in the category of Best Song Musically and Lyrically.
When" Evita" moved to a London theatre, Covington — who had become disenchanted with the whole project—refused to reprise the part of Eva, and the role went to Elaine Paige.
" Do n't Cry for Me Argentina" has been covered by multiple artists, including The Carpenters, Olivia Newton- John, and Sinéad O'Connor as well as actors Lea Michele and Chris Colfer from the TV series" Glee".
In 1996, American singer Madonna played the title role in the film adaptation of the musical and recorded her rendition of" Do n't Cry for Me Argentina".
Released as the second single from the film soundtrack on 4 February 1997, her version received positive reviews from music critics who praised her vocal performance.
A separate version called the" Miami Mix", which included re-recorded vocals in English and Spanish and an Argentinian bandoneon, was promoted to radio.
Madonna's version reached number one on the European Hot 100 Singles chart and the national charts of the Czech Republic, France, Hungary, and Spain.
It also became a top- ten hit on the US" Billboard" Hot 100 and many other charts worldwide, while attaining gold or platinum in six countries.
Mary Don't You Weep
" Mary Do n't You Weep"( alternately titled" O Mary Do n't You WeepOh Mary, Do n't You Weep, Do n't You Mourn", or variations thereof) is a Spiritual that originates from before the American Civil War – thus it is what scholars call a" slave song, a label that describes their origins among the enslaved," and it contains" coded messages of hope and resistance."
It is one of the most important of Negro spirituals.
The song tells the Biblical story of Mary of Bethany and her distraught pleas to Jesus to raise her brother Lazarus from the dead.
Other narratives relate to The Exodus and the Passage of the Red Sea, with the chorus proclaiming" Pharaoh's army got drown- ded!", and to God's rainbow covenant to Noah after the Great Flood.
With liberation thus one of its themes, the song again becomes popular during the Civil Rights Movement.
Additionally, a song that explicitly chronicles the victories of the Civil Rights Movement," If You Miss Me from the Back of the Bus", written by Charles Neblett of The Freedom Singers, was sung to this tune and became one of the most well- known songs of that movement.
In 2015 it was announced that The Swan Silvertones's version of the song will be inducted into the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry for the song's" cultural, artistic and/ or historical significance to American society and the nation ’s audio legacy".
