“Any Road” by George Harrison

"Any Road" opens Brainwashed, the posthumous George Harrison album that arrived in November 2002, and in May 2003 it became the last Harrison song ever put out as a single. He started writing it in 1988 in Maui, while filming the video for "This Is Love" from Cloud Nine. His only known public performance of it was a solo acoustic turn in 1997, during a VH1 interview with Ravi Shankar, his final TV appearance.

On the record he sings lead and plays acoustic guitar, slide and banjo-ukulele, with Dhani Harrison on electric guitar, Jeff Lynne on piano and bass, and Jim Keltner on drums. It reached 37 in the UK and got a Grammy nod in the Best Male Pop Vocal Performance category, while its instrumental B-side, "Marwa Blues", won Best Pop Instrumental Performance.
