Description
Best known for his multiplatinum hits “Dream Weaver” and “Love is Alive,” Gary Wright came to prominence as a singer and songwriter during the golden age of rock in the 1970s. What is not as well known to the public, however, is Wright’s spiritual side. At the heart of this memoir is the spiritual conversion and journey that Wright experienced alongside his close friend George Harrison. Until Harrison’s death in 2001, the two spent decades together writing songs, eating Indian fare, talking philosophy, and gardening. In addition to featuring lyrics to a song cowritten by Wright and George Harrison in 1971, titled “To Discover Yourself,” this memoir includes a cache of never-before-seen photos.

The deluxe e-book features a new audio recording of “To Discover Yourself.”

The unreleased track was recorded by Gary Wright as a demo in 2001, right after George Harrison died. The download that comes with the Kindle version of the book is of that studio recording. Here's a recent live performance of the same song:

Wow, found a new copy for $4 bucks and change.

Really loved Spooky Tooth and of course the later stuff. Great testimonials from some big names in the business.

I got it and read it.....the info on the front says it all. I would have preferred more stories about Spooky Tooth and Wonderwheel but Gary wanted for focus George and his spiritual quest. It was entertaining but not something I would grab for a second read soon.
