AviSNov 26, 2002I knew it was a great album when nearly every song hit me in the gut and brought a tear to the eye. George succeeds at "the art of dying" and does it with memorable tunes, firm voice and fluid slide guitar. A posthumous gift and final confirmation of his introspective greatness.

AntonioGómezHJan 19, 2003Maravillosas canciones de un genial músico que supo conjuntar melodía con sensibilidad, belleza con meditación, sinceridad con profundidad espiritual. Otra de sus obras maestras.

JimBDec 24, 2002Would of liked to have listened to George's songs with just he and a slide guitar. As akin the his outake of "Something" from the Abbey road album.

BrianSep 14, 2005I'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.

DanteBAug 14, 2006This 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.

Sep 26, 2012I love this album. Harrison's writing is pure genius from "Taxman" and "Here comes the sun" to "What is life" to "Any Road". His death was a true tragedy but as Ringo said in his song "Never Without You", 'And your songs, will live on, without you'

Harrison never seemed to recognize the difference between philosophical profundities and the sound of a catchy song, and that may have been his greatest gift to the world. Brainwashed offers a fine, final reminder of that gift.
-
Brainwashed is rich in warm Harrison vocals, couple with his distinctive slide guitar style. Unfortunately, it's also rife with often too-glossy production.

MojoA mature and often profound record. [Dec 2002, p.102]
