 Several Harrison biographers likewise hold Extra Texture in low esteem , with Alan Clayson describing it as his " artistic nadir " and " a bedsit record rather than a dancing one " . Simon Leng writes that Harrison 's post @-@ Dark Horse " rehabilitation disc " came way too soon , resulting in an uncharacteristically passionless work , with its singer sounding " punch drunk " . Aside from the uplifting " You " , both authors identify " Tired of Midnight Blue " as the only saving grace . Gary Tillery notes the " darkly sarcastic " album title for a collection full of such " downbeat " tracks , the darkest of which is " Grey Cloudy Lies " . Harrison himself rated Extra Texture as his worst solo release of the 1970s . Speaking to Musician magazine in 1987 , he dismissed it as " a grubby album " and added : " The production left a lot to be desired , as did my performance … Some songs I like , but in retrospect I wasn 't very happy about it .
