Comments
This is a really, really good album. It is lovely to hear the shear excellence that George gave in both rehearsing and early takes of songs that 
appeared on a few of his albums.

Having said this the big question is, why did George get so little credit for a most definite gifting?

Obviously some of the tracks are 'not perfect', as they were not recorded with the view that they would ever be available to the public. 

Yes John and Paul showed that they had such a lot of ability, but in my opinion George could have done far more than he was given the space on 
Beatles albums to do.
