New George Harrison Studio Album Released This November
Dark Horse and EMI Recorded Music are proud to announce the release of "Brainwashed," the new George Harrison studio album written and recorded before he died in 2001. Produced by George, Jeff Lynne and Dhani Harrison, the album features 11 new Harrison compositions and one cover.
"Brainwashed" is the first release of new Harrison material since the 1987 album "Cloud Nine."
"We started working on the album in 1999," Jeff Lynne explains. "George would come round my house and he'd always have a new song with him. He would strum them on a guitar or ukulele. The songs just knocked me out."
Dhani Harrison and Jeff Lynne spent much of this year completing the final work on the album. "George talked about how he wanted the album to sound," Jeff adds. "He told Dhani a lot of things he would like to have done to the songs and left us little clues. There was always that spiritual energy that went into the lyrics as well as the music."
David Munns, Vice Chairman of EMI Recorded Music said: "EMI is thrilled to have this new affiliation with Dark Horse. George Harrison is an absolutely legendary artist and this is an extraordinary record and a testament to his genius. We are proud to offer this album to the world."
"Brainwashed" will be released in November 2002.
A single from the album "Stuck Inside A Cloud" is due for release early November.
"There was never a time when I did not exist, nor you.
Nor will there be any future when we cease to be."
