A real oddity from George Harrison – a record of abstract electronics, cut right around the same time as his bigger mainstream solo hits!

A great bit of funky rock, with slight bluesy touches – and a hard overall sound that has bits of the San Francisco sound to it, though they were actually from the east coast, and featured a young Billy Joel rocking in an entirely different vein than his later piano-man years .
