Detail : | George Harrison's ninth album release, and first "Greatest Hits" package. Credited to George Harrison
With George's E.M.I contract over and no unreleased product remaining, it was time for E.M.I. to re-cycle George's material.
The cover design was by "Cream", with the front cover photograph by Bob Cato and the inner sleeve shot by Michael Putland. The record label is the black and silver Parlophone label, and was the first solo Beatle album to revert to this classic look. On the run-out groove on the A-side you can see etched "A NICKY CUT", and on the B-side "NICK W".
Note : I also have an Australian import copy of this release which has a vastly different cover. |
