After "Dark Horse" and "Extra Texture" being commercial failures George Harrison issued "33 1/3" in late 1976 to warm reception.

We have George Harrison back and a little more inspired here. Great first song, This Song and Crackerbox Palace are the best songs. Some underrated songs are See Yourself, Dear One, and Tears of the World. Some stinkers or boring songs on the album but only some. There are a lot of great ones that are spread throughout.
