George Harrison | Living In The Material World (50th Anniversary)

In honour of its 50th Anniversary, George Harrison’s Living In The Material World is being celebrated with a suite of new releases overseen by Dhani & Olivia Harrison and featuring a stunning new mix of the classic album by multi-Grammy Award winner Paul Hicks.

Limited to 5,000 units globally, the Super Deluxe Edition box set features the album on 2LP 180g vinyl and 2CD, along with 1 x Blu-ray, which includes the newly remixed original album and a bonus disc containing 12 previously unreleased Harrison tracks, featuring early renditions of every song on the main album. Additionally, the set includes an exclusive 7” single of the never-before-heard recording of ‘Sunshine Life For Me (Sail Away Raymond),’ featuring Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson, and Rick Danko from The Band, alongside Ringo Starr.

Housed in a rigid slipcase, the box set contains a beautiful 60-page hardcover book curated by the Harrison Estate, with unseen imagery and memorabilia from the era, handwritten lyrics, studio notes, and tape box images. Also included is a 12-page Recording Notes booklet, drawing from the original Living in the Material World production notes, photographs, and reel-to-reel session tapes housed in the George Harrison Archive. For the first time, the Harrison archive team offers an in-depth, chronological account of the album’s creation, revealing insights that have never been shared with the public before.

The 2024 mix album will also be re-released as deluxe editions (2LP/2CD with 12 session outtakes) and standard LP/CD.
