THIRTY THREE & 1⁄3 (stylised as THIRTY THREE & 1⁄ॐ on the album cover) is the seventh studio album by English musician George Harrison, released on 19th November 1976. It was Harrison's first album release on his Dark Horse record label, the worldwide distribution for which changed from A&M Records to Warner Bros. as a result of his late delivery of the album's master tapes. Among other misfortunes affecting its creation, Harrison suffered hepatitis midway through recording, and the copyright infringement suit regarding his 1970–71 hit song "My Sweet Lord" was decided in favour of the plaintiff, Bright Tunes Music. The album contains "This Song" – Harrison's satire on that lawsuit and the notion of plagiarism in pop music – and "Crackerbox Palace". Despite the problems associated with the album, many music critics recognised Thirty Three & 1⁄3 as a return to form for Harrison after his poorly received work during 1974–75, and considered it his strongest collection of songs since 1970's acclaimed All Things Must Pass. Harrison recorded THIRTY THREE & 1⁄3 at his Friar Park home studio. Other musicians on the recording include Billy Preston, Gary Wright, Willie Weeks, David Foster and Alvin Taylor. Harrison undertook extensive promotion for the album, which included producing comedy-themed video clips for three of the songs, two of which were directed by Monty Python member Eric Idle, and making a number of radio and television appearances. Among the latter was a live performance with singer-songwriter Paul Simon on NBC's Saturday Night Live. The album was remastered in 2004 as part of the Dark Horse Years 1976–1992 reissues following Harrison's death in 2001.

The Beatles’ nine-year contract with EMI expired on 26th January 1976, at a time when the band’s Apple Records was being wound down. Harrison had launched Dark Horse Records in 1974, but was unable to release his own music on the label for two years. In addition to making reference to the speed at which an LP revolves on a turntable – 33 ⅓ revolutions per minute – the album’s title was inspired by Harrison’s age during the album’s genesis. He turned 33 on 25th February 1976, and recorded THIRTY THREE & ⅓ between May and September that year. The oldest Harrison composition on THIRTY THREE & ⅓ was ''See Yourself'', which Harrison had started writing in the summer of 1967. It was inspired by Paul McCartney’s public admission of taking LSD. Having suffered the humiliation of being sued successfully over "My Sweet Lord", George Harrison turned the ordeal into music, writing "This Song", a Top 25 hit. Even better was "Crackerbox Palace", which would have fit in nicely on any Beatles album. The rest was slight, although Harrison covering Cole Porter's "True Love" is an interesting idea. This was Harrison's first album on Dark Horse, his custom label, formed after the completion of his contract with EMI/Capitol in June 1976. These quibbles aside, THIRTY THREE & 1/3 is breezy and fun, and pointed toward a bright future, just as the debut had. This might be the place for the novice to start with Harrison's solo catalogue.
