Album Notes & Community Reviews

Co-produced by Jeff Lynne, 'Cloud Nine' served as a massive commercial and critical comeback for George Harrison after a five-year hiatus. The album features pristine, glossy pop-rock production highlighting Harrison's exceptional slide guitar work and a genuine, uplifting sense of creative rejuvenation. It is a warm, melodic, and deeply romantic late-career triumph.
