ByJOHN SARZYNSKI OnSunday, August 1, 40,000 people filed Madison Squae Garden for two benefit concerts. They traveled to the Garden from all I over the metropolitan area expecting good music. They weren't disappointed. Performing together on stage, in order to raise money for the victims of Bengla Desh, were , Ringo Starr, Leon Russell, , a supporting cast of other rock personalities, Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar Khan, and .

The concert was the first time Harrison and Starr played together before an audience since -the Beatles last toured in 1966. It was the first time Dylan appeared on a stage since his Isle of Wight performance two years ago. But more than a collection of firsts, the concert provided the audience with a musical feast, sprinkled to taste by a grouping of the most professional musicians in contemporary music.

At the start of the show, Harrison appeared onstage immediately to introduce Shankar, who is4 himself a Bengali and who persuaded Harrison to play the concert as a benefit for his homel. Haron explained to the crowd that Shankar's music was '4more serious than ours ' and he hoped the crowd 'could get into it." Shankar appeared with Khan, his brother-in-law, and great master of the sarod.

After Shankar, there were some-films of the Bengla Desh horrors combined with a'recbrding of Harrison"s specially written song, "Bengla Desh". Then Harrison, dressed in a white suit and orange shirt mounted the stage with his band.

There were Clapton and Jesse Davis on electric guitar. Starr and Jim Keltner on drums. Russell on piano. The Badfinger group on acoustical guitars and percussion. on electric piano and organ. Klaus Voormann on bass. Six horns under the direction of Jim Horn. And a chorus of seven voices. They opened up with "Wah Wah" from Harrison's "" album; and +h-uzv^ w1^i ^nrtrttoFntetinc"_ Next the grouv did "Waitin' on You All", and "My Guitar Gently Weeps".

Preston sang "That's the Way God Planned It", and Starr did "It Don't Come Easy". Russell rocked to "Jumpin' Jack Flash", and Harrison played an acoustical guitar and sang "Her Comes the Sun". After the song's applause had subsided, Dylan walked unceremoniously on stage dressed in tan pants and a denim jacket; carrying an acoustical guitar and wearing his harmonica on a holder. The crowd greeted his arrival with a deafening roar of approval and applause. Dylan responded just as strongly.

He started off with "Hard Rain's Gonna Fall" and then did "Blowin' in the Wind". For the songs, "It Takes a Lot to Laugh/ It Takes a Train to Cry", "Love Minus Zero -. No Limit", and "Just Like a Woman", Dylan was joined by Harrison, Starr and Russell. At the evening

show, Dylan changed his program and sang "Mr. Tambourine Man". The group took the stage once again, and finished off the show and the audience with "Hear Me, Lord", "", and "Bengla Desh". The audience left still vibrating from the spectacle. The two concerts grossed about $250,000 for the relief fund. In addition, a film and a soon to be released record of the event are expected to swell the figure measurably.
