Living in the Material World is George Harrison’s acclaimed second solo album, released after The Beatles split in 1970. It just hit its 50th anniversary! With lyrics delving into spiritual themes, this album deeply connected with listeners. Just five weeks after its May 1973 release, both the LP and the single 'Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth)' topped the US album and single charts. Rolling Stone called it a 'pop classic' and a 'radiant article of faith'. Now, lovingly overseen by Dhani and Olivia Harrison, it's been fully remixed from the original tapes for this amazing 50th - anniversary release. Grammy - winning engineer Paul Hicks did the remix, making the sound brighter, richer, and more dynamic than ever. Check out the tracklist below:

Using this vinyl album is easy. Just place it on your turntable, gently drop the needle on the starting groove of the side you want to listen to, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt or oils on the record, which can affect the sound quality. After each use, put the record back in its sleeve carefully to prevent scratches. Store the album in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, as these can warp the vinyl. Also, keep it in an upright position to avoid any bending. If you notice any dust on the record, use a soft, anti - static brush to clean it before playing.
