Recording information: 1970 - 2000.
Though George Harrison`s solo albums for most of the 1970s and early `80s were uneven, often slapdash affairs, 1970`s ALL THINGS MUST PASS is a brilliant piece of work. Produced by Phil Spector, whose expansive, majestic arrangements and sonic flourishes suit Harrison`s songs perfectly, ALL THINGS MUST PASS eclipses everything the other Beatles recorded at the time (excepting John Lennon`s PLASTIC ONO BAND). This sprawling double record gives the impression of Harrison being uncorked and pouring forth all of the songs and ideas edged out by Lennon and McCartney during the Beatles years.
The title and the melancholic black and white cover photo match the mood of the music, which brims with an armchair wisdom, and the weary, disillusioned air that permeated the early `70s in the counter-cultural wake. Yet the album also boasts an abiding sense of spirituality and tenacious optimism, as on the lullaby-like hit single "My Sweet Lord" and "Isn`t It a Pity," a compassionate study of human suffering. "What Is Life" and "Awaiting on You All" continue these themes, but Spector`s bright pop polish lends a counterweight, making the record feel light and deeply personal at once. Despite some lengthy, formless jams, as on the 11-minute-plus "Out of the Blue," ALL THINGS MUST PASS stands among the great records of the early `70s.

    A must buy for anyone who wants to know why George Harrison was such a talented artist. Great music and lyrics and a thinker's album. And, Overstock offered this at such a bargain! Couldn't believe my luck. I bought this for my brother, who has never heard his music.

    This is a wonderful double album by George Harrison. Music is fresh and is never out dated. George is a great artist. Never got press like Paul or John but he's as talented.
