USA Warners let this 2nd version "Save The World" out
as it smears the Russians.
this was out in 1981

It's unfortunate that he was in a band alongside L&M. Would have been really interesting to see what GH would have achieved as the leader of his own band. Great artist.

George was the best of the Beatles,I loved his stuff especially "while my guitar gently weeps",so underrated.

Interesting track.
I am not that familiar with his work in all honesty but I like most of what I have heard that he released.

Yes the First Take "Tears of the World"
got the Warner Bros Record boss angry

words like "Big Business Calling Every Tune"
was a dig at Warners
and the Record Company paid in Advance
for Musicians , Engineers and Studio Time.
So while he was alive
that track was put in the Vaults.
