George Harrison

Cloud Nine

A masterpiece record is back in print

Review Score:

(10/10)
It was such a crying shame that George's greatest album was out of print during that several-year respite. This is easily some of George's best work during his post-Beatle years and having it out of print was such a loss for die-hard Harrison fans (like myself) and the general listening public. This album is a must-own. George's distinctive mellowness in his guitar playing decorates the album, not to mention the wonderful musicianship from many celebrities helping George make this comeback. Celebrities include: Jim Keltner, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Elton John and don't forget the help given in production and musical talent from Jeff Lynne. If you were disappointed with Extra Texture, or any of George's Dark Horse releases such as Gone Troppo, Somewhere in England, Thirty Three and a Third or his self-titled album, Cloud Nine totally redeems George and his talent. If you were disappointed with Cloud Nine (who would be? Let's face it, this album is THE highlight of George's career) good news for you, the other five Dark Horse albums have been re-released. Take the other re-releases into consideration as well.
