George Harrison launches his post-Beatles career in style with an epic and classy demonstration of what he couldn't do within the Fab Four. A major songwriter and guitar player at his creative peak. Even Phil Spector's Wall of Sound is thrilling. The best album by a solo Beatle?

George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison deliver an ego-free, superb and fun set of songs in serendipitous conditions. Miraculous.

George sounds reconciled with his Beatle past. One of his very best, most "beatley" and commercially successful albums; co-produced with Jeff Lynne.

A posthumous release that does the man no disservice, to say the least.

The unfairly-maligned successor to "All things must pass". Superb songcraft, beautiful arrangements (notably the slide-guitar parts). Too "religious" for some, spiritual as it should be for me.

Mellifluous, harmonious, melodic... there's nothing flashy about this album. Everything's subtle and grows with repeated listening. Those slide-guitar parts...

An instrumental, heady, world music trip. Released the same month as the Beatles' white album, it was the first album on Apple Records, as well as the first album released by a solo Beatle. Check it out!

A short archival release that focuses on the "All things must pass" sessions, with a couple of solo demos recorded much later. Wish there was more. When for a second volume?
[First added to this chart: 09/23/2015]
One of his really good and most enduring ones.
