Collection Features Harrison's Solo Hits
from 1970's All Things Must Pass Through 2002's Brainwashed,
Remastered, Plus Live Recordings from 1971 Concert For
BangladeshCapitol/EMI confirms
the tracklist for George Harrison's first-ever career-spanning
solo hits collection, Let It Roll: Songs by George Harrison. To
be released June 16 (June 15 internationally), the CD's special
packaging includes a 28-page booklet featuring previously unseen
and rare photos, and newly-written liner notes by Warren Zanes.
The collection's 19 tracks have been digitally remastered by
Giles Martin at EMI's Abbey Road Studios, and will be available
in CD and digital formats.
"Let It Roll: Songs by George Harrison
is a gathering of material that takes us far into the territory
that was ultimately a place unique to George Harrison," writes
Warren Zanes in his liner notes essay for the new collection.
This collection is the first to span
Harrison's entire solo recording career, including the #1
Billboard Pop singles "My Sweet Lord," "Isn't It A Pity," "Give
Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth)," and "Got My Mind Set On You."
Let It Roll also features live recordings of three timeless
Harrison-penned Beatles songs, "Something," 'While My Guitar
Gently Weeps," and "Here Comes The Sun," from his 1971 all-star
Concert For Bangladesh benefit at Madison Square Garden.
"The keyhole into the world of George
Harrison is the music itself. Yet his songs and the
accomplishments for which he's remembered are inextricably bound
- and those accomplishments are, without question, eclectic in
scope," Zanes writes.
George Harrison is a twice-inducted
member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as a solo artist and
as a member of The Beatles, and an 11-time Grammy Award winner
for his recordings with The Beatles, Traveling Wilburys, and as
a solo artist. On April 14, Harrison was honored with a star on
the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.
