George Harrison's first solo album in 15 years was released posthumously, as George succumbed to cancer on November 29, 2001.
Sure, there's that one regrettable lapse, and the album also occasionally suffers from the blandness/boredom factor and the lack of variety that all of his albums have.
His first album in five years, Cloud Nine was a pleasantly well crafted and accomplished pop album.

George used this album as a vehicle for his deep religious beliefs, and brought aboard Phil Spector to apply his wall of sound.
Because the title track on an album shouldn’t be the worst.
George’s contributions to the Beatles cannot be underrated, starting with songs like “Taxman” and “Within You Without You” and working his way up to classics like “Something” and “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” (still one of my all-time favorite Beatle tracks).
