George Harrison

Early Takes Volume 1

Early Takes Volume 1 offers all unreleased material, some of which is likely familiar to longtime Harrison collectors. You’ll find many All Things Must Pass-vintage demos and early takes: “My Sweet Lord,” “All Things Must Pass,” “Behind That Locked Door,” “Awaiting On You All,” “Run of the Mill” and the Bob Dylan co-write “I’d Have You Any Time.” You’ll also find a performance of Dylan’s “Mama, You’ve Been On My Mind” and an early attempt at “Woman, Don’t You Cry For Me” from Thirty Three and 1/3. The demo of “The Light That Has Lighted the World” led to the finished track on the original album Living in the Material World, and finally there’s a Harrison version of the Gilbert Becaud standard “Let It Be Me.” Though there has been no confirmation as of yet, the “Volume 1” in the title just might indicate that more Harrison vault treasures are on the way.
