WHAT IS LIFE

George Harrison

45cat - George Harrison - What Is Life / Apple Scruffs - Apple - USA - 1828

As a songwriter, George Harrison was restricted while a member of The Beatles. With contributions from John Lennon and Paul McCartney, his songs struggled for inclusion on the group's albums despite their quality. When the band broke up, he had a stockpile of songs on hand for his solo debut. Harrison unleashed a double album entitled 'All Things Must Pass' in late 1970. He co-produced the album with Spector. Among its gems was "What Is Life", the second single lifted off this LP and the follow-up to "My Sweet Lord". It reached the Top 10 in America, parts of Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
