COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Maybe The Best Record Ever submitted by John J. Madonna on January 16, 2008, 5:07pm George Harrison surprised everyone. Everyone wondered "Which Beatle would get the first post-breakup hit, Paul or John?" No one suspected it'd be George with "My Sweet Lord" off of this gigantic album. And I mean gigantic in every sense of the word. Produced by Phil Spector, this features his fat Wall of Sound including lots of acoustic guitars and a gospel choir. All of George's friends are here, including Billy Preston, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker, Badfinger, and plenty more. And this was three LPs long (though the third LP was just jamming.) But the songs here are moving, personal, and frank. George decides for his first record to, for the most part, abandon double-tracking his vocals, lending a more personal sound, a frailty to his voice. The styles include, blues, singer-songwriter, country, gospel, soul, and rock 'n roll.

The bonus tracks here are okay. "I Live For You," a song left off of the record but from the same sessions, is an amazing song. It also has his 2000 version of "My Sweet Lord," which he did just to play a better solo, and the demo version of "Let It Down" with some Spanish guitar overdubs. Two more, alternate instrumental tracks to some of the songs, are interesting maybe once, but more the most part just make you want to hear the real thing.

Frequent "Top 100 albums" List Occupant submitted by doctorfang on August 2, 2015, 12:47am All Things Must Pass frequently appears on lists of the top 100 rock albums of all time. I've seen it listed as the best solo album by a Beatle, as well, and I might just agree.

This is George's first post-Beatles album, and has a number of outstanding songs on it. I suspect that he had a backlog of tunes that just couldn't fit onto Beatles albums.

THE BEST submitted by jibkidder on June 23, 2022, 10:09pm Hands down this is the best of any Beatles related media! I know that George hated the Phil Spector production, but that doesn't mean that that tension harms the record. This and McCartney II are just very special records.

So many great songs submitted by kencza on July 29, 2022, 4:22pm This was(is) one of the great releases of it's time and of all time. This blew me away when it showed up in 1970 and I played it constantly on my 8 track and turntable. I had a cassette version and CD copy too. I still listen to this music. I'm not going to start naming tracks, just put it on and enjoy.
