Wonderwall Music CD

Released in November 1968, George Harrison's Wonderwall Music was the first solo album released by a member of The Beatles and the first LP to be released by Apple Records. The soundtrack music for director Joe Massot's debut feature-length film, Wonderwall, the predominantly instrumental album is an intricate, vibrant tapestry of Western rock music and compositions in an Indian classical style. In 1992, George recalled, I decided to do it as a mini-anthology of Indian music, because I wanted to help turn the public on to Indian music. Three bonus tracks have been added to the remastered album: In The First Place by Liverpool group The Remo Four, who played the rock elements of the recording sessions, a previously unreleased alternate take of The Inner Light, and the previously unreleased Almost Shankara, a raga that was not used in the film or for the soundtrack LP. The booklet also includes a new essay of appreciation by the acclaimed musician, producer and composer Nitin Sawney and
