Somewhere in England - Aftermath and Later Releases

Aftermath and Later Releases

Two of the songs from Somewhere in England were included on Harrison's 1989 Best of Dark Horse 1976–1989 compilation: "All Those Years Ago" and "Life Itself".

In 2004, Somewhere in England was remastered and reissued, both separately and as part of the deluxe box set The Dark Horse Years 1976-1992, on Dark Horse Records with new distribution by EMI, adding the bonus track demo version of "Save the World", recorded in 1980. Specially for this reissue, Harrison's originally rejected artwork was now reinstated.

Interestingly, a survey conducted in 2006 of the top 50 most popular 'Harrisongs' on the official George Harrison.com message boards included only one song from the album ("Life Itself", number 29), yet included three of the four rejected songs ("Flying Hour" at number 14, "Lay His Head" at number 27 and "Sat Singing" at number 41).

    The aftermath of joy is not usually more joy.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    We need a type of theatre which not only releases the feelings, insights and impulses possible within the particular historical field of human relations in which the action takes place, but employs and encourages those thoughts and feelings which help transform the field itself.
