George Harrison "Early Takes Volume 1" *

Good level on what? I really dont understand Dhani's mind.

 

Time to sharpen some knives...

 

Are they serious? So much then for Early Takes Volumes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ....

 

Terrible news-- but I'm not surprised as far as the Early Takes "series" is concerned. Why call a rarities disc Vol. 1 when it's part of a special project? Never made sense. Still, I thought there would be some re-boot of the rarities releases. Sad for us, but I suppose Dhani would like to move on.

 

I might be wrong, but since the question was about reissues, so we can assume the answer deals about reissues also.
"I don't think there's more (reissues) to be done in the future. I think we’ve reached a good level (of new editions of the back catalogue)."

His answer doesn't rule out any NEW MATERIAL related publication, like further "Early Takes" volumes.

 

Bootleggers are high fiving right now...not saying it's all out there, but a lot of it is.

 

If he means no more unreleased material from George then.....
Boooooooooooooo!
Hissssssssssssssss!

 

I read it that way too. And, if that is indeed what was meant, I think that George's catalogue is indeed at a "good level." Unreleased material (or a collection of rarities/non-album tracks) would be most welcome, but I think the albums have been taken care of properly

 

OK, you made my blood pressure go down. Thank you.

I want that official Portrait of a Leg End.

 

I think it could probably means that there are no more plans for future releases of the studio albums of George. Lets pray!

 

I agree with you, i think Troppo is better than DH and Somewhere in England, it s a good record!

 

All Things Must Pass deserves a super deluxe box set that includes all of George's demos, a new de-Spectorized stereo mix and a 5.1 surround mix.

 

BUT the follow-up question was:

Interviewer: So, Dhani, are there any plans for the vast amount of unreleased tapes done by George?
Dhani: You mean the stuff we threw in the trash? ...

 

For a moment my heart stopped ! You got me here

 

Anytime!

 

Dear Father in Apple,
Please make Dhani's comment refer only to previously-released albums.
Amen.

 

I assume you mean like Let It Be Naked on a remix - I could go for that!!!!

 

To paraphrase Macca, Gone Troppo is a nice little album!

 

Gone Troppo is my third favorite GH album.

 

Here's something I hadn't seen/heard before. Too bad it's not complete:

 

I don't know if Dhani wants to move on just yet, seems to enjoy using his dad's records and legacy to keep himself in the public eye

 

A 9 record set then instead of three.

 

As long as the tracking was dry. It would be great. Otherwise impossible.

 

The tracking was dry, as bootlegs have shown. Tracks like "Let It Down" are so raw that they would fit in Plastic Ono Band....
