Why would I listen to George in 1979 when I can listen to him in 1969?

I like 'Brainwashed' a lot. Better than ATMP, actually. Guess it's my fave.

I like Brainwashed too. I'd go as far as to say it's the only George album I'd play end to end. ATMP being a double album is ripe for playing only bits of at a time. Cloud 9 is a good consistent commercial album and deserved its success but has bit too much 80s sheen for my tastes.

Brainwashed is a solid bunch of tunes, the best of which stand with his best solo material,  with some great guitar and no real clunkers.

I only own All Things Must Pass, but I gotta say, I think many-a songs off that one can easily compete with his best Beatles offerings. I'm curious to hear the opinions of people who've heard more of his solo stuff.

Other than Macca's Wings stuff 1970-77, all my other solo stuff is Greatest Hits only. But my Greatest Hits have grown over the years to include nice songs that weren't considered hits, and I find George & John had "a lot" of nice songs.  Unfortunately I only have 5 Ringo songs, and as much as I have tried, that's all I can stomach of his.

Put it this way:  What do you prefer - the chicken or its eggs?

I'd easily choose Georges' solo output and its not even close.
