Living in the Material World
Portions of George’s 1973 album were recorded at Harrison’s then new recording studio, FPSHOT, at his home in Friar Park. This album contains what many agree to be Harrison’s top vocal performance (“Who Can See It”) and also some of the best examples of George’s unique slide guitar style.
