George Harrison - Wonderwall Music album cover
 Wonderwall Music was George Harrison's first solo album and the soundtrack to the film Wonderwall. The songs are virtually all instrumental (except for some non-English vocals, and a slowed-down spoken word track), and were recorded partly in December 1967 in England, and the rest the following January (1968) in Bombay, India. Wonderwall Music is notable for being the first official solo album by one of the Beatles.

While the Indian musicians were largely credited under their real (or adopted) names, as were pianist John Barham and members of the Remo Four, several of the rest are pseudonyms for Harrison, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr and Peter Tork. Harrison is listed merely as producer, arranger and writer for the album.

Also recorded during the Indian sessions was the backing track to "The Inner Light", which became the B-side to "Lady Madonna", the final Beatles single on Parlophone in the UK and Capitol Records in the United States.

All of the tracks were composed by Harrison, and it was the first album release on the newly formed Apple Records, released in November of 1968, a few weeks before The Beatles. It would also be the first Apple record to be deleted, though it was reissued on remastered CD in 1992.

Not charting at all in the UK, Wonderwall Music reached #49 in the U.S. in the early part of 1969.

It is worth noting that Britpop band Oasis had a major hit with a song called Wonderwall in the 1990's. Oasis are known for incorporating Beatles references into many of their works.
