(Friday, May 9, 1969) — George Harrison of The Beatles released Electronic Sound, his second studio album, today in the UK (released May 26, 1969, in the U.S.).

The album is an experimental work comprising two lengthy pieces performed on a Moog 3-series synthesizer. It was one of the first electronic music albums by a rock musician, made at a time when the Moog was usually played by dedicated exponents of the technology.
