Query: Eastern views on Western problems

George Harrison / Living in the Material World: This CD has some excellent songs mixed with some merely ok songs. This album reflects his "Krishna" philosophy better than any other he had previously released, and he praised the movement just at a time when the American arm of the movement was disintegrating into madness (see "Monkey on a Stick: Murder, Madness, and the Hare Krishnas" by John Hubner and Lindsey Gruson). George does speak to John and Paul in the title track in a plea to turn from crass commercialism. The album is actually pretty good, although George sounds rather horse throughout. It is odd at times only because he is speaking from the viewpoint of the far-east, which is often more than foreign to western ears. However, that `foreignness' is also one of the interesting aspects of the album. Four Stars.
