Teaming with legendary Beatles obsessive Jeff Lynne, George Harrison crafted a remarkably consistent and polished comeback effort with Cloud Nine. Lynne adds a glossy production, reminiscent of ELO, but what is even more noticeable is that he has reined in Harrison's indulgences, keeping the focus on a set of 11 snappy pop/rock numbers.
