Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth) by George Harrison – ****

First released: 1973

One of the all time great George Harrison tunes, it ranks up there with his best like "Something" or "Here Comes the Sun" and is easily the best thing on the "Living in the Material World" album. It also easily climbed to number one as a single. I could listen to this one over and over. This was another one of many Beatles solo tunes that I didn’t know who did it, but remember hearing it a lot and liking it when I was a wee lad of six during the summer of 1973. Later, it was included on "The Best of George Harrison" and 2009’s "Let it Roll – Songs by George Harrison". Also performed on George Harrison’s "Live in Japan" album and tour in 1991.
