GEORGE HARRISON "gone troppo" vinyl, 1982
his tenth studio set.
one of only three or four i'd never heard previously so i was keen...
i should have avoided it, abysmal is the only word for it.
uninteresting, uninspiring and lacklustre....
not sure whether he was still grieving John at this stage which affected the album.
but he was in a battle with Warner Bros label over control and direction and he was dissatisfied with the industry in general.
an obscure cover (Stereos 1961 track "i really love you" which im not familiar with) and which i didnt like.
only a couple of things on here i remotely like, his worst vocal album by far.
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
something in the back of my mind tells me this was written around the "white album" sessions but i could be wrong.
either way, its the best thing on the album.
Friends come and friends go
As I go round and round in circles
Love someone change your mind
Decide he was a swine
As you go round and round in circles
He who knows does not speak
He who speaks does not know
And I go round in circles
Dislike someone and will not bend
Later they may become your best friend
As life it goes around in circles
He who knows does not speak
He who speaks does not know
And I go round in circles
Soul takes on a body with each birth we make our date
With life and death along the road the soul reincarnates
The show goes round and round in circles
When loss and gain and up and down
Becomes the same, then we stop going in circles
Round and round in circles
