Extra Texture (Read All About It)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Extra Texture (Read All About It) is an album by George Harrison which was released in 1975. Following the Dark Horse debacle, Extra Texture (Read All About It) was Harrison's last album under his contract with Apple Records (and also the last studio album on Apple) and EMI, all set to embark on his own Dark Horse Records imprint, initially distributed by A&M Records. Once Harrison allowed himself some needed time to rest following the events of 1974 and busied himself with other Dark Horse acts, he finally got around to recording his "contractual obligation" album - the bulk of which was cut at A&M Studios in Los Angeles in the summer of 1975. Among the musicians he used to record Extra Texture (Read All About It) were Jim Keltner on drums, Leon Russell on piano, and a young David Foster - then contracted with Dark Horse Records with a band called Attitudes - who provided three string arrangements and keyboards. Different bass guitarists appear on nearly every track, and include Klaus Voormann, Carl Radle, Paul Stallworth, Willie Weeks, and Harrison himself, playing synthesized Arp bass.
