Reissue
While solo works by fellow ex-Beatles Lennon, McCartney and Starr had all been remastered as part of concentrated repackaging campaigns during the 1990s and early twenty-first century, Harrison's Living in the Material World was "neglected over the years", author Bruce Spizer has noted, an "unfortunate" situation considering the quality of its songs. On 26 September 2006, a year after the re-release of The Concert for Bangladesh, the album was reissued on CD, limited-edition LP and in a deluxe CD/DVD package by Capitol Records and EMI. The remastered Material World now features two additional tracks, neither of which had previously been available on an album: "Deep Blue" and "Miss O'Dell", popular B-sides, respectively, to the 1971 non-album single "Bangla Desh" and "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)". The CD/DVD package contains a 40-page full colour booklet that includes extra photos from the inner-gatefold shoot (taken by Mal Evans and Barry Feinstein), liner notes by Kevin Howlett, and Harrison's handwritten lyrics and comments on the songs, reproduced from I Me Mine.
The DVD rounds up rare performance footage of "Give Me Love" from Harrison's 1991 Japanese tour with Eric Clapton, behind-the-scenes film clips shot during the 1972–73 sessions for "Living in the Material World", and previously unreleased versions of "Miss O'Dell" and "Sue Me, Sue You Blues" set to archival film clips.
