Recorded during the ‘All Things Must Pass’ sessions…Unheard George Harrison song ‘Cosmic Empire’ has gone online.
As myth has it, George Harrison – the Quiet Beatle – was held back in the Fab Four, with the pre-eminent partnership of Lennon and McCartney blocking his songwriting.
This pent up musicality bursts forth on 1970’s ‘All Things Must Pass’ – regularly held up as the finest solo Beatle endeavour.
While that may be reductive, the sense of talent unleashed certainly comes to the fore on a new box set, a lavish 50th anniversary take on this seminal album.
Laid bare, the fruits of Harrison’s labours are clear – spending two days at Abbey Road recording 30 demos, he split is time between full band and a second, solo day alongside co-producer Phil Spector.
This second day produced ‘Cosmic Empire’, a song who title alone could only spring from one artist – lovely, Beatles-esque pop, it’s just George and his guitar, an endlessly endearing combination.
Online now for the first time, ‘Cosmic Empire’ is a gorgeous pop miniature, and it comes accompanied by a neat lyric video.

‘All Things Must Pass – 50th Anniversary Edition’ will be released on August 6th.
