New George Harrison Apple-Era Box Set

George Harrison Box Set

George Harrison’s first six solo studio albums, released between 1968 and 1975 on the Beatles’ Apple label, will be available as newly remastered individual releases and as part of a box set, The Apple Years 1968-75.

Due out Sept. 23, the eight-disc box was designed to complement Harrison’s 2004 release, The Dark Horse Years 1976-92, and features an exclusive DVD with several video pieces, including a new seven-minute film with previously unreleased footage. The Apple Years box also includes an exclusive perfect-bound book with an introduction by Dhani Harrison, new essays by award-winning radio producer and author Kevin Howlett, and rare and previously unpublished images.

“I am so happy that what we started a decade ago by releasing The Dark Horse Years is now complete with the release of his first six albums as The Apple Years,” Dhani Harrison said in a statement. “Some of these records have long been out of print, so I cannot wait for music lovers to get their hands on these newly remastered versions. It’s a very proud moment for us, and I would like to thank everyone who has helped us in any way to achieve this.”

The albums—which have been digitally restored and remastered at Lurssen Mastering in Los Angeles by a GRAMMY® Award-winning team of engineers including Paul Hicks, Gavin Lurssen, and Reuben Cohen—include 1968’s Wonderwall Music, 1969’s Electronic Sound, 1970’s All Things Must Pass, 1973’s Living in the Material World, 1974’s Dark Horse and 1975’s Extra Texture (Read All About It). Some of the albums contain previously unreleased tracks, while All Things Must Pass contains five bonus tracks that were first released in 2001.
