I liked the price, and that cd is like new as advertised. jewel case, cd, and liner notes cover are in pristine condition. no scratches whatsoever on cd. it looks like whoever owned it before really took care of it. I recommend this seller.

The first ever solo Beatle album I ever bought, I got this on CD around 1991. I have loved it ever since...I am glad to have this on vinyl in good condition, since I am the kind of guy who will take care of vinyl so that it outlives me. The seller was great...this album was described as being like new and it surely is. Plays like it was pressed yesterday....seller even included a handwritten note wishing me happiness in owning this album, a nice touch, and indeed I am. For those who don't know...this album came out in 1989 in the middle of his great late career comeback...and although he had 3 multi-platinum albums between 87-90(counting the Wilburys), this one failed to sell, really at all...I think it peaked just inside of the Billboard 200. Unlike most compilation albums though, this one contains not only the single Cheer Down, which is unavailable on any other George album, but it also contains two completely new songs, Poor Litte Girl and Cockamamie Business..both of which I like. Also of note...this is the only compilation album for which George himself chose the songs.

George Harrison would have been a much bigger music star if he wasn't always in the shadows of Lennon and McCartney. Given this fact, Harrison still had more all-time great Beatles songs - and solo stuff - than people remember. It's time to give 'George' proper credit for his many hook-laden songs and rich lyrics - both in and out of the Beatles. Like his band brethren, Harrison writes in many styles - bluesy rock, folk, pop, laid-back, fun, thought-provoking, hopeful, spiritual and just great, straight-ahead rock-n-roll. His electric-slide-guitar work is vastly underrated, and became a staple of his as he got better and better at this difficult-to-play-well guitar technique. You can often hum or whistle his guitar licks, a testament to his lead-guitar skills.The only thing missing from this collection is the dozen or so other Greatest Hits that couldn't make it on to this CD. George Harrison's 'Best of Dark Horse' collection will have you playing this disc over and over again, reminding you of what a true force in music he was. Enjoy!

Good luck trying to find this CD, my cassette tape broke, so I went nuts many years ago trying to find it again. I think my brother found the CD for me. Thank You Lenny I will be forever grateful.
If you like George Harrison, you're nuts not to get this CD. It is very very rare that I enjoy every song on an album!
PS I remember at the end of Lethal Weapon 2 (1989), I got up to leave with my son when I instantly froze in place the second the ending song came on and waited for the credits to roll. Even though I recognized the voice, I had to see it and sure enough it was George Harrison singing "Cheer Down". So I immediately went out and purchased the tape for that song and loved the whole thing.

If you are a fan of the Fab Four you will enjoy this greatest hits collection. If you are a fan of George Harrison, this is an absolute must for your collection. These are the post Beatles favorites that were released on the Dark Horse label. Only song missing from this collection I would have like to have seen (or heard) on this CD was "This Song". Probably had something to do with copyright problems......

As a late comer to George's music, I love this cd. Unlike some other cds this lyrics are clear and upbeat. Each song is a classic, making this a strong and collectable CD.

I mainly bought this compilation for the 2 bonus tracks that aren't available on any other Harrison album. Poor Little Girl and Cockamamie Buisness which are both classic Harrison. This is a good 15 track compilation of George's music from '76-'89 and it's also good for completists.
Its a good companion to George's compilation Let It Roll which has tracks from his All Things Must Pass, Living in the Material World and Brainwashed albums. I think they should have made Let It Roll a double cd and put on tracks from this album aswell as the likes of You, Woman Don't You Cry Over Me and maybe a track or 2 from Wonderwall Music. Still I would recommend this to anyone who loves George's music just as a quick listen if you don't have time to listen to a few of his original albums. Also it's out of print now so it will be more difficult to get in a few years.
Thanks musicMagpie for the early delivery. As mentioned before I bought it, there was a couple of light marks on the disc but the cd plays perfectly. Really happy with the disc, early delivery, the price and for Amazon for advertising it.
Thanks.

une très bonne compilation avec 3 chansons très bonnes des sessions de " Cloud Nine "
Reviewed in France on August 30, 2015
Cette compilation est sortie en cd et LP en 1989 au moment du Grand Retour de George au premier plan des hits et des charts en UK et aux USA ,commencé avec le grand disque "Cloud Nine " co produit avec son ami Jeff Lynne ,ex "Electric Orchestra " ,numéro 1 aux USA et 3 il me semble en UK ;ce retour en force s'est poursuivi avec le groupe de " copains " qui ont formé ,presque par hasard ,le groupe ' Traveling Wilburrys " ,dont le CD1 a connu un énorme succès en 1988,puis le vol ....3 en 1990 après le décès brutal de Robinson .Je ne m'écarte pas de ce CD car il entre dans le retour gagnant de George entre 1987 et la tournée japonaise de décembre 1991 ,preuve qu ' il POUVAIT le faire comme ...Paul !
Si vous ne pouvez acheter le coffret "Dark Horse years " cher vous avez avec cette compilation de 16 titres d'écouter QUE des chansons de cette période 1976-1989 ,à la différence de la dernière compilation sortie par Olivia et Dhani Harrison ,son fils ," Let it Roll " qui a l'avantage ET le désavantage de couvrir toute la carrière de George entre 1970 et 2000.
Le choix des meilleurs titres des albums solo de la période "Dark Horse " est bien fait ,bien sûr les fans regrettent l'absence de titres qu ' ils préfèrent ,mais il fallait alors un double cd , qui se rapproche trop du COFFRET avec les 6 CD.
Surtout cette compil a trois chansons inédites ,de qualité ,QUE sur ce cd ,pas dans le coffret ,en fait 3 chansons venant des sessions de " Cloud Nine " sorti en 1987:
en ouverture du cd ,la très bonne " poor Little Girl " ,typique de George avec son jeu de slide guitar caractéristique et ...Beau !
ensuite une chanson "originale " Cookamanie Business" avec un son "groovy " blues excellent ,dans le style de "Sue me ,Sue You Blues"de Living in the material World de 1973 ,mais avec une superbe section de cuivres "chauds " ,non faits par les synthés .
Enfin l'excellente chanson " Cheer Down" avec le jeux croisé fabuleux de George et son ami Eric Clapton ,à écouter very Loud ,qui me donne des " frissons" à chaque écoute ! la pochette " Deep Blue " est typique de George ,à la fois belle et ...horrible ,avec un beau livret qui a les paroles des 16 chansons et un beau CD avec des chevaux "dark horse" blanc en étoile tout autour du cd argenté ,beau à regarder et à ...écouter .Ce cd ,s'il est comme neuf ,deviendra un " COLLECTOR "car le cd est épuisé en neuf sous blister de 1989.
