About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

George Harrison had two periods of great commercial success, separated by 15 years and two record labels. This extended gap is the chief reason there hasn't been a career-spanning Harrison collection until 2009's Let It Roll: Songs By George Harrison, the first-ever disc to gather songs from George's stints at both Apple and Dark Horse, and only his third-ever hits collection, following 1976's Beatles-heavy The Best of George Harrison and The Best of Dark Horse, released in 1989 in the afterglow of Cloud Nine's comeback success. Let It Roll balances these two periods, swapping any Beatles-era song ("Something," "Here Comes the Sun," "While My Guitar Gently Weeps") for a live version from The Concert for Bangladesh, then mixing it all up chronologically, so the set starts with the pristine bounce of "Got My Mind Set on You" before giving way to "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)" If anything jars, it's the sounds of times, as Jeff Lynne's clean, manicured arrangements don't necessarily fit with Phil Spector's lush, magisterial productions, but that's a minor quibble about a useful compilation that consolidates all of Harrison's signature tunes on one very enjoyable disc.

Roll Away!by gmoore

November 11, 2009: I bought the George Harrison album "Let It Roll", even though I have all the tracks on it because I wanted the demo version of "Isn't It A Pity". I was disappointed to find that THAT version was only available on iTunes and ONLY if you bought the entire album, minus the packaging!

I'm getting tired of all these corporate "tricks" to secure my hard-earned dollars.

I know times are tough, but corporations should not abuse their fan base!

September 19, 2009: George was and remains a great songwriter and truly missed. It is just so great to have all his hits on one CD. "Heavens got one hell of a band."
