George Harrison : OHNOTHIMAGEN

AND WHEN I'M HOLDING YOU

WHAT A FDEELING

SEEMS SO GOOD TO BE TRUE

I'M TELLING YOU ALL

I MUST BE DREAMING 

 OHNOTHIMAGEN

(Original Title For Extra Texture)

 Extra Texture (Read All About It)

is the sixth 

studio album by

 the English musician

George Harrison, 

released on 

 September 22nd 1975

. It was Harrison's 

final album under his

 contract with Apple Records

and EMI, 

and the last studio album

 issued by Apple.

 The release came

 nine months after

 his troubled 

1974 North American tour

with

Ravi Shankar 

and the 

poorly received

Dark Horse album.

Among Harrison's 

post-Beatles solo releases, 

Extra Texture 

is the only album on

 which his lyrics are devoid 

of any obvious 

spiritual message.

* Except The Bonus Tracks on Here 

 It was recorded mostly

 in the United States

 rather than England, 

while Harrison was working

 in Los Angeles

 in his role

 as head of 

Dark Horse Records.

Gary Wright, 

David Foster, 

Jim Keltner, 

Jesse Ed Davis, 

Leon Russell,

  Tom Scott,

  Billy Preston 

and

  Jim Horn 

were among the

 many contributing musicians. 

The keyboard-heavy arrangements

 incorporate elements of 

soul music 

and the influence of

  Smokey Robinson, 

signaling a further departure

 from the rock and

  folk-rock sound of 

Harrison's popular 

early-1970s work. 

Contrasting with the

 musical content, 

the album's art design 

conveys an upbeat mood 

and includes an 

unusual 

die-cut cover 

with a 

textured surface.

Although critical reception

 to the album was

 largely unfavorable,

  Extra Texture

was certified gold 

by the Recording

 Industry Association

 of America 

within two months 

of release. 

It produced a 

hit single 

in the Motown-inspired

 "You", 

originally recorded in

 London in 1971 

with co-producer 

Phil Spector. 

The album also includes

 "This Guitar (Can't Keep from Crying)", 

which was both a sequel

 to Harrison's 1968

 composition

 "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

 and a rebuttal to

 his detractors

 "OHNOTHIMAGEN"

 ("Oh not him again"), 

which was Harrison's 

self-deprecating take on

 his dwindling popularity in

 1974–75

Harrison had intended to

 call the album

  "Ohnothimagen", 

until a

 studio discussion

 with

 Paul Stallworth 

suggested an alternative. 

According to Harrison,

 just as he himself

an overdub

 needing something

 "extra", 

Stallworth

 happened to say

 the word

 "texture"
