View allAll Photos Tagged Compilation,
We have seen countless compilations / collections for former Beatles over the decades, but far too much emphasis and attention has been afforded Lennon and McCartney....so I thought, why not conceive something that clearly HASN'T been done before as far as I can recall...that is, have a compilation of Beatle tracks all sung by (as well as written by) George Harrison collected together on CD?
Sure, there have been George Harrison compilations aplenty in the past, but many of these feature his solo material along with *versions* of Beatles hits, but never a compilation focussing exclusively on songs whilst he was with the Fab Four.
So by way of addressing this glaring oversight, I decided it would be a good idea to create such a collection.....with songs compiled chronologically...
I hit upon the great idea of basing the front and back cover art on the group portraits as featured on the Let It Be and White albums....but with all eight images of George over the years....
I hope you like it....after all, George was a Beatle too, you know!! :)

Many of the instructions in Grapefruit have been realised as physical artworks, through performance, participation, film, painting and sculpture. Others are intended to be carried out entirely in the mind.*

Yoko Ono Music of the Mind
(February – September 2024)
Yoko Ono is a trailblazer of early conceptual and participatory art, film and performance, a celebrated musician, and a formidable campaigner for world peace. Developing her practice in the United States, Japan and the UK, ideas are central to her art, often expressed in poetic, humorous, profound and radical ways.
Spanning more than seven decades, YOKO ONO: MUSIC OF THE MIND is the UK’s largest exhibition celebrating key moments in Ono’s groundbreaking, influential and multidisciplinary career, from the mid-1950s to now – including her years in London where she met her future husband and longtime collaborator John Lennon.
The show traces the development of her practice and explores some of Ono’s most talked about and powerful artworks and performances. This includes Cut Piece (1964), where people were invited to cut off her clothing, to her banned Film No.4 (Bottoms) (1966-67) which she created as a ‘petition for peace’. Visitors are invited to take part in both simple acts of the imagination and active encounters with Ono’s works, such as Wish Trees for London, where visitors can contribute personal wishes for peace.
Audiences will discover over 200 works including instruction pieces, scores, installations, films, music and photography. The exhibition reveals a groundbreaking approach to language, art and participation that continues to speak to the present moment.
