This album is an education, on may levels!

This is an absolutely beautiful set of songs. It brings tears of joy (at the gift of hearing them) and sadness (over the fact that we didn't get more work like this from George over the last two decades of his life, and that no more will be forthcoming). It is certainly among the best solo albums release by any of the former Beatles. A classic by a towering talent.
Rev. Rikard gave it a9:
It is quite easy to rate this album through the eys of sentimentality rather than with a critical ear. After all, his death was a tragic loss. However, Harrison's last album ranks among his best. His acoustical songs reveal flashes of the greatness that wrote "Here Comes the Sun," and "My Sweet Lord". Harrison allows his deep spirituality to baptize his lyrics and melodies with what I call, for lack of a better word, "sweetness." This is not a party album. Like all of Harrison's late and post-Beatles work, the songs are intended to create introspection, and to remind us that we are more than a collection of molecules and cells. This last albumn accomplished what Harrison desired. If we fail to understand "why" he wrote his songs "it is a pity and shame."

I'm stunned people would call this over-produced. Perhaps that's just the critics' anti-Lynne bias showing. This album has some really high points, an only a couple low ones. It might not measure up to All Thing Must Pass, but neither did Babe Ruth hit 60 HR every season.
