First released: 1969
George Harrison’s second solo album and to quote Mark Walgren’s "The Beatles on Record", George apparently got “a case of the Lennons”. This is not an album for anyone expecting music. It is truly George noodling about with a moog synthesizer back in the infancy of the instrument. I have listened to this a few times to understand what to make of it. It is challenging listening and has some unintentionally amusing moments due to the strange sounds that can come out of a moog. I read somewhere that on the original LP, the song titles got reversed. Well, now that it’s been corrected on the CD version (released in 1996, but not in the US), it all makes much more sense. It has been rumored that George doesn’t really have anything to do with this at all, but does it matter? Being a fan of Perry-Kingsley makes me rate it higher than most people might.
