Check out the Rock genre New Releases


THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
GEORGE HARRISON...Living In The Material World  (1973)
Living In The Material World was released 40 years ago in 1973.  It reached number 1 on the U.S. Billboard album charts and receives a 5 out of 5 stars.  It is a fantastic record.  There are some points in the record that are very low key that for the average listener might seem boring.  For a huge Harrison fan and for a huge music fan the low key elements are as wonderful as the so-called "radio friendly" type songs.  The number 1 hit single "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth)" is on this album.  Other highlights include "Sue Me Sue You Blues", "Be Here Now" (one of the low key elements but is quite good) and "Try Some Buy Some".  George was not the greatest singer and at times it shows on this release but the songwriting and the playing are excellent.  Being an ex-Beatle at this point for three years was a sticky point for Harrison. He mentions it a few times:  "Sue Me Sue You Blues" is in reference to the on-going lawsuits the 4 Beatles were going through at the time.  "Who Can See It" is in reference to the fans wanting him (and the other 3) to remains the same boys from Liverpool everybody fell in love with.  There is a mention of the other 3, by name, in "Living In The Material World", which includes some real cool guitar work from George.  When it comes to his solo work George is always going to be known for All Things Must Pass, which is an awesome album, but so much of his other work should as recognized.  For George's 70th birthday I suggest you check this one out.  It's good, really good so it is highly recommended
