I'd have to make my vote too. So I will. But what do you think is his most under-rated album?

Extra Texture (Read All About It). Not his best album, -tho it's my favourite one from him-, but definitely the most underrated. I think represents his style better than most of the rest albums: peaceful, sad, brilliant,...

I agree it is an under-rated album, I just feel that "Living In The Material World" has more songs on it that warrant recognition like "That Is All", "Who Can See It", "Be Here Now" and "Don't Let Me Wait Too Long".

Some of those songs (specially the first three) could fit very well on Extra Texture because of their production, sound and feeling. They are simply George.

Extra Texture (Read All About It) was better received than Dark Horse by the critics ... The album reached #8 in the US (it was his last Top 10 album in US for twelve years) ... and reached #16 in the UK.

... the album included some jokes: one referencing to the Apple logo ... on Extra Texture (Read All About It) it's all eaten away ... and George is pictured on the inside jacket with the word "OHNOTHIMAGEN" ("Oh, not him again!") ... in his best style a humourous take on George's dwindling popularity at that time ...  

... His Name Is "the one and only George Harrison" (Ladies And Gentlemen)! ...This Guitar (Can't Keep From Crying), Ooh Baby (You Know That I Love You, Can't Stop Thinking About You, You, World of Stone, Grey Cloudy Lies, Tired Of Midnight Blue,  ... as usual The Answer's At The End, A Bit More of You ...

I'm going with 'Extra Texture' too. I love every song on it.

(Brainwashed isnt underrated. Its one of Georges best and I feel its received as such.)

I couldn't vote on this, because I love all of George's albums. I have all of his albums and I listen to them constantly everyday...so to me in my own opinion...I don't believe that George has an under-rated album. I just don't have the heart to say which ones are good and which ones are not good because I love George very very much.
