Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.co.uk Review
As the Beatles' perpetual dark horse, Harrison rarely got the chance to write and sing more than one or two songs per album. But once the band split up, the former "quiet one" was quick out of the gate with a series of memorable hit singles that seamlessly merged his budding spirituality and an epic, Phil Spector-inspired pop sensibility. This collection, originally released in 1976, combines seven of Harrison's best-known Beatles numbers, including "Something", "If I Needed Someone", "Here Comes the Sun", and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" with a half-dozen early solo hits including "My Sweet Lord", "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth)", "You" and "What Is Life". As such, it's a good entry-level Harrison primer. i--Scott Schinder/i

5 out of 5 stars Thanks for the memories, George   January 8, 2002

A lovely selection of George Harrison's songs from his time with the Beatles to his solo hits.brI listened to them when they were released and, so many years on, they still have the power to take me right back to the way we were then.brAs George said, all things must pass, and so they do - but with this collection George will live on in memory


5 out of 5 stars Great, Though a new compliation is woefully overdue!   June 23, 2008
Mrs. Sarah Skilton
It really is time a proper George solo best of was put together. Even our Ringo has had one recently! This album was originally released in the mid seventies and has the best of Georges Beatle songs and the best of his solo output up till then. I think the Beatles stuff is on here to remind the public that Lennon and McCartney didn't just write the songs. All this aside though, every song on this album is a winner, its just very sparse.


5 out of 5 stars Harrison at his best   July 1, 2009
CLEO (Derry, N Ireland)
I first heard this Album in 1985 and purchased this CD as a 'blast from the past'. Its great to hear these songs again and they have now been added to my ipod. Would highly recommend.
