I was blown away by how consistent this album. Song after song is of the highest quality. George Harrisons's burst of creativity on his first solo album is amazing the fact that it stretches over 6 full side of a triple album is incredible. Now I came to this album late first listen was only a few years ago, however I knew many of the songs from the Concert for Bangladesh which I absorbed at a very young age thanks to my older sister. I love that album. But still I was shocked at just how great this album is. Side one is just perfect in my books. The only criticism I would offer is sides 5 and 6 get a little jammy and perhaps less song oriented, though the first song of side 5; Out of the Blue, is great, its just the other three songs are a little long and overwrought. But this is a minor criticism of a no-brainer 5 star album.
