Product description

Released in December 1974, "Dark Horse" is the fifth studio album by the legendary English rock musician George Harrison. This album marks a significant moment in Harrison's career, as it was released following a prolific year where he established his own record label, Dark Horse Records, and built a state-of-the-art recording studio in his Friar Park home. The album is a testament to Harrison's versatility and creativity, featuring a blend of rock, contemporary pop, and traditional Indian music.

"Dark Horse" is notable for its controversial North American tour that Harrison staged with Indian classical musician Ravi Shankar. The tour, which took place in November and December 1974, added an extra layer of intrigue to the album's release. The title track, "Dark Horse," served as the lead single in North America and became a top-20 hit in the United States, although it did not chart in the UK.

The album's tracklist includes a mix of powerful rock anthems and introspective ballads. Standout tracks like "Simply Shady," "So Sad," and "Bye Bye, Love" showcase Harrison's songwriting prowess and musical range. The album also features "It Is 'He' (Jai Sri Krishna)," a spiritual track that reflects Harrison's deep interest in Eastern philosophy and religion.

"Dark Horse" is a fascinating snapshot of George Harrison's artistic evolution during the 1970s. Despite facing critical challenges upon its release, the album has since gained a dedicated following and is appreciated for its unique blend of styles and Harrison's unmistakable musical vision. With a duration of 48 minutes, this album is a compelling listen for both longtime fans and newcomers to Harrison's music.

This 2025 Reissue Remastered LP is housed in a gatefold.

    Once again, the first UK release and it's an amazing sounding album - accurate, powerful, and impactful

  • Etchings Reversed on Release

    I believe the etchings on the ID part are reversed for this particular release. Side A is marked as SMAS-1-3418-Z6 #3 and Side B as SMAS-2-3418-Z13. It's not the other way round.

  • Green Apple Label Confusion

    I'm not certain all of these are the same, but mine has a Green Apple label on one side and a sliced white Apple on the other.

  • George's Masterpiece

    5 out of 5 stars
    yosjawiyouyApril 30, 2024United States🇺🇸

    I don't usually leave comments about albums, but I couldn't let this one slide. This is an amazing album. Each track transitions into the next so seamlessly, and I think the production is exceptional (need I mention "Bye Bye Love"?). I believe all the criticism this record received is just because it's such a change from anything George had done previously. It appealed to a different audience compared to his Beatles' and "All Things Must Pass" work. I'm definitely a fan of this album. I reckon it's one of the best ever made.

About George Harrison

George Harrison, born on February 25, 1943, in Liverpool, England, is renowned as the lead guitarist of The Beatles, one of the most influential bands in rock history. Often referred to as "the quiet Beatle," Harrison's contributions to the band and his solo career are marked by his deep exploration of Indian culture and spirituality. His incorporation of Indian instrumentation and Hindu themes significantly expanded the horizons of popular music. Harrison's solo work, including iconic songs like "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," "Here Comes the Sun," and "Something," showcases his unique talent and spiritual depth. After The Beatles disbanded in 1970, Harrison's solo career flourished, and he collaborated with legendary artists such as Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, and Ravi Shankar. His legacy endures through his music, which continues to inspire and captivate fans worldwide. Harrison passed away on November 29, 2001, leaving behind a rich musical and spiritual heritage that continues to influence generations.
