Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Somewhere in England is an album by George Harrison, released in 1981. Recorded as Harrison was becoming increasingly frustrated with the music industry, the album''s making was a long one, and witnessed a tragic event in Harrison''s life. Content to move at his own speed, Harrison began recording Somewhere in England in the autumn of 1979 and continued at a sporadic pace, 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 (Tears of the World", "Sat Singing", "Lay His Head" and "Flying Hour"), 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, but knew that when his recording contract came up for renewal after his next album, he wouldn''t bother re-signing.
