All Things Must Pass is a Triple album by George Harrison recorded and released after the break-up of The Beatles The first triple album by a solo artist, the original vinyl release featured two records of rock songs, while the third, entitled "Apple Jam" was composed of informal jams led by Harrison with musician friends and other famous musicians.

Received as a masterpiece upon its 1970 unveiling, All Things Must Pass is widely considered to be one of the best albums made by a Beatle as a solo artist. It is certified 6x Platinum by the RIAA, making it the best selling album by a solo Beatle.

Recorded from May to August 1970 at Abbey Road Studios, and then further recording and mixing at Trident Studios from August to September 1970, Harrison enlisted the aid of Phil Spector to co-produce the album, giving All Things Must Pass a heavy and reverb-oriented sound, typical for a 1960s/1970s Spector production — but a sound Harrison would subsequently regret with the passage of time. In the EPK that accompanies the 30th Anniversary reissue George is asked what he thinks of the album now thirty years later and he says, "...too much echo."

In late May 1970, before recording the album, Harrison sat in a studio with Spector and ran through fifteen songs on guitar, with occasional support from an unknown bass player. These demos (eventually bootlegged as Beware of Darkness , due to an altered line in his performance of "Beware of Darkness") showed him in the process of weighing his material, as eight of the songs would be either substantially reworked or not appear on the finished album. Among these early outtakes, three have been officially released in one form or another: "Everybody, Nobody" was an early version of "The Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp", "Beautiful Girl" would be finished for Thirty Three & a 1/3, and "I Don't Want to Do It" would wait fifteen years until being revisited for the soundtrack of Porky Revenge". Five other songs, "Cosmic Empire", "Mother Divine", "Nowhere to Go," "Tell Me What Has Happened With You," and "Window, Window", would have not seen official release.

Two demos of songs that did make the album, "Beware of Darkness" and "Let It Down would eventually be released on the remastered All Things Must Pass. Full discs of electric outtakes from the recording sessions would also leak on bootlegs in later years, and some of those tracks were also included in the remaster. Multiple takes of songs from the album appear on a bootleg three-disc box set The Making of All Things Must Pass along with other releases.

The album features the talents of Ringo Starr, members of Badfinger, Eric Clapton and the other members of Derek and the Dominoes", future the Yes band drummer Alan White, and Billy Preston. Bob Dylan, a close friend of Harrrison‘s, co-wrote "I'd Have You Anytime" with him, while Harrison covered Dylan's "If Not For You, which had been recently released on Dylan's New Morning" album. Alan White stated that John Lennon played on "If Not For You

Harrison was sued in the spring of 1971 by the publishers of He’s So Fine, for copyright infringement for My Sweet Lord., with the case finally being settled in 1976 with a royalty payment

The 6 high glossy vinyl playing surface still looks stunning, as do the vinyl labels, indicating little to no use of this album.

Visually all 6 playing surfaces are truly stunning with hardly any visible marking at all, not even sleeve removal.

All six sides of this album play without fault.

Any markings on my pictured are from shadows of the surrounding area reflected in the high gloss finish of the vinyl.
