George Harrison Somewhere in England Controversial Album Tracks and Jacket Design rejected by Warner Brothers recording.
This item is rare 1st proof of George Harrison's Somewhere In England Album Cover. Cover design was done by Basil Pao.

Somewhere in England is the ninth studio album by George Harrison, released in 1981. The album was recorded as Harrison was becoming increasingly frustrated with the music industry. The album's making was a long one, during which conflicts with Warner Bros. Records arose. Somewhere in England was the first Harrison album to be released after the death of his former Beatles bandmate John Lennon. Content to move at his own speed, Harrison began recording Somewhere in England in the autumn of 1979 and continued sporadically, finally delivering the album to Warner Bros. Records in September 1980. However, the executives at Warner Bros. rejected it, ordering Harrison to drop four of its songs ( inchTears of the World inch, inchSat Singing inch, inchLay His Head inch, and inchFlying Hour inch), finding them too downbeat. Harrison's original cover art, featuring his profile against a map of Great Britain was also vetoed by Warner Bros. With Harrison already feeling unable to relate to the current post-punk and new wave musical climate, he acceded to their requests. - Courtesy of Wikipedia
