If I needed someone
The second George song on the album, and one for Patti? One of my favourites it motors along with great guitar work (Byrds or Indian flavoured?) and superb McCartney bass.

In my life
Classic. Best song on the album. It has everything doesn’t it including piano from George Martin. A song that means so much to so many people.

I’m looking through you
The second of McCartneys Jane songs on the album. He’s still not happy but it clearly inspired him to produce this classic. Fantastic vocals. Taped during the last session of the album. He left it late.

Classic. Great song vocal and harmonies. Johns still looking for something he hasn’t yet found.

What goes on
It’s ok, but second tier Lennon and McCartney, which is why they gave it to Ringo presumably.

Always loved this since I first heard it on the radio. Yes a bit cheesy, but some great guitar work in there and McCartneys lovely vocals. Can’t remember who had the cover hit with this?

Think for yourself
More Dylan influences and a great song from Harrison this time. His two contributions to this album are outstanding and my favourites from him outside of the Abbey Road LP.

Fantastic from John. Great vocals and harmonies. Continues the isolation themes from earlier songs. He wasn’t happy either. I’m surprised they lasted until 1970.

You won’t see me
A McCartney Jane song. I like the tune but again they are not getting on. She was a pretty good muse but must have got fed up with McCartney constantly writing about all his woes.

Very John yet very Dylan. I like the mix of acoustic and sitar. My introduction to Indian music instruments. George would never be the same.

What a great way to kick off the album. The guitars working very well and a kicking bass from McCartney. His contributions are great on this album

Another great egg pod post. I wonder what else is out there.
Despite the YouTube comments claiming “AI!” these are The Beatles’ demos of Love of the Loved (for Cilla Black) and Misery, with different lyrics. Anyone who saw Evolver ‘63 will remember a snippet of the latter.

Astounding that new Fabs material is still emerging!

Listening to Pink Moon by Nick Drake while making Sunday Lunch. What a fantastic album. Recorded 1971 and released 1972. It sounds so contemporary and a great set of songs. What a loss he was.

Ringo, Cilla and Basil Brush currently on BBC2 singing a Christmas song. Followed by Wings Mull of Kintyre, and then John and Yoko. Classics. Follow it up on BBC IPlayer. Shame no George.

I know people will disagree but it’s my favourite GH album of the 70s. Only bettered by the much later Cloud 9.
24 November 1976:

Thirty Three & ⅓, George Harrison's seventh solo album, is released in the USA.

The title refers to Harrison's age during the album's creation, and the 33⅓ revolutions per minute at which an LP revolves on a turntable.

Thanks for organising John. Another enjoyable evening. Looking forward to the 50th for 33 1/3.

His name is legs
Great groove, bass, piano and horns, but very strange lyrics. A weird monologue by legs in the background as well. Very enjoyable in an odd way. Closes the album as it starts with an uptempo number. I couldn’t cope with another ballad.

Tired of midnight blue
Another ballad, but written when very depressed. The lyrics show that. Keyboard driven. Keyboards all over this album. Something more uptempo would help the run of the LP I think

Can’t stop thinking about you
Another pop soul ballad. Clearly influenced a lot by Smokey R. Lots of keyboards. Would like a bit more guitar, but still a good listen.

The second Hawaii song. He was on a bit of a roll that holiday.

Ooh Baby
Lovely slow ballad. Nice horns and vocals. One of a couple of tributes he wrote to Smokey R. Another on his next album 33 1/3. (That’s one on my favourites). Have we ever done that John?
