The irritating thing about Album marketing is that they released this in the 1970's on vinyl, and his fans bought it, then they released it on CD, and the fans bought it again, and then they re-released it in Deluxe format a decade later and the fans bought it yet again.....not bad getting people to buy the same record thrice, but this is an exceptionally well put together package, and if love posters, artwork, bonus tracks and additional feature-ettes etc. this wont let you down, and as for the music, well, if you don't already own, and know every track on one of the previously released versions, you probably aren't the target market, so why are you reading this ....? My personal favourite is a B-side extra not on the earlier versions called "Miss O'Dell", in which Mr. Harrison O.B.E. has clearly been sitting on the grass, drinking tea, and gets a case of the giggles, laughter, it is said, is infectious, and it this track always makes me "Cheer-Up" whenever I "Cheer-Down"....Read full review

This album has all the Harrison trade marks; soft vocals, melodic slide guitar and non-standard chord changes, but is without doubt, not in the same league as All Things Must Pass, certainly in my opinion, the strongest of all the ex-Beatles' solo albums! The songs are pretty weak (neither melodic or even strong lyrics), the vocals are weak (Harrison may have had vocal-chord problems at the time)and I wonder if Harrison had to commit himself to delivering this album from a contractual stance. He produced better albums either side of this album, but the album opener "Give me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth) is a lovely melodic song with a meaningful lyric. It's a pity the majority of the album doesn't follow this trend.
A triumph from start to finish.George Harrison at his very best.As a solo artist he flourished long after the Beatles had split.The music world mourns his passing and his fans will always have a big gap in their lives.
