47. George Harrison

(January 2015) I have completed phase 47 of my “opus project,” in which I listen to an artist’s complete discography from start to finish. This episode: GEORGE HARRISON (solo). I say that All Things Must Pass (1970) is the best solo album by any ex-Beatle — a flowering of songwriting that finally got on vinyl after the group split up. That said, his overall solo work shows that his songwriting was not of the caliber of John and Paul. A pleasure, in any case.

Favourite album: All Things Must Pass

Specially recommended album: Brainwashed (released posthumously, 2002)

Hidden gem: Wonderwall Music

Favourite song: Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)

Most overrated song: My Sweet Lord

Most underrated song: Wah-Wah

Compared to expectations: same
