All 141 George Harrison Solo Songs Ranked Worst to Best
George Harrison's music, much like the former Beatles star himself, tended toward both the uplifting and the downbeat. Often in one song.
He relished taking the fight to liars, thieves, the unprincipled, politicians, record-label execs and other such scoundrels. But he also celebrated the light that surrounds it all and never stopped searching for the most personal kind of inner peace.
That's why he was initially attracted to Phil Spector – a producer who couldn't fathom a record without a cast of thousands – but also a Beatles-loving imitator in Jeff Lynne. They represented both of Harrison's musical impulses, as his essential dichotomies played out on vinyl.
