TL;DR Summary

George Harrison's 1973 album Living in the Material World, often criticized for its preachy lyrics, has become a sleeper classic among modern indie-rock hipsters. The album, released after his successful triple-vinyl extravaganza All Things Must Pass and the star-studded Concert For Bangla Desh, is a stripped-down, intimate band album that showcases Harrison's candid, conflicted, and self-contradictory songs. Living in the Material World is a paradoxical album that reveals Harrison in ways he never did before and never would again, making it a must-listen for fans of the Beatles and music history.
