This release features previously unreleased recordings from George Harrison's final recording sessions. While many titles have previously included the broadcast version of the May 14, 1997 television show "YIN & YANG," this release contains the unedited version. From the setup to the rehearsal and the main performance, everything is being released for the first time.

The latter half of Disc 1 and Disc 2 contain recordings from the final album, "Brainwashed." While George Harrison composed music during his lifetime, he showed little interest in recording, often entrusting the final touches after recording his own parts to external engineers and musicians such as Jeff Lynne.

Because *Brainwashed* was released posthumously and was completed by Jeff Lynne and his son Dhani, this tendency is particularly evident. The versions included on this release are those where George handled all instruments and vocals alone, without any external intervention. All tracks are previously unreleased.

The song credited as "Run So Far" on the album is listed as "(CAN ONLY) RUN SO FAR" on this release. Similarly, "P2 Vatican Blues (Last Saturday Night)" is simply listed as "P.2. VATICAN BLUES" on this release. These titles originate from George's handwritten titles on the original tapes. It is believed that Dhani made these changes when finishing the album after George's death.

This release includes an unedited version of George's final television appearance and last public performance of "Yin & Yang," as well as George's solo performance and vocals from his posthumous album "Brainwashed," before any external input was added. Both are previously unreleased recordings. Finally, a rehearsal recording of "Taxman" is included as a bonus track.
