Mojo magazine called these ”the trilogy of truly essential post-Beatles solo albums”. Although they were done as a group, they still had tons of creative energy as individuals that proved successful and a worthwhile listen.
433. George Harrison, All Things Must Pass*** Co-produced by Phil Spector (and his Wall of Sound). The is my favorite of the 3. I have always had a soft spot for softy George. Released as a triple album in 1970, his first solo work after the break-up of the Beatles just months earlier. It includes the hit singles "My Sweet Lord" and "What Is Life", as well as songs such as "Isn't It a Pity" and the title track that were ideas he had with the Beatles that never made the cut.
418. Paul McCartney and Wings, Band On The Run*** The title track shows that Paul didn’t need the other Beatles to make layered 2 in 1 songs. It is reminiscent of “A Day In The Life” and the second half of ‘Abbey Road’. But that is the real only highlight in this album for me.
23. John Lennon, Plastic Ono Band*** Of the 3 albums, this is my least favorite as a whole but has my favorite song of the 3, “Look at Me”. This was also co-produced Phil Spector. Raw sound with songs influenced by Lennon's primal scream therapy he was into at the time. This is the album where he famously says “I don’t believe in Beatles, I just believe in me.” Highlights: “God” and “Look at Me”.
