Description

Unique & extremely rare collector's item originally released in 1970 on the Apple label. This remastered 30th anniversary version was released in January in 2001 on the GnOM Records label (under licence from the estate of the late George Harrison to EMI).

Please note that this out of print extremely rare remastered box set contains 5 bonus tracks, including "I Live For You", two of the songs performed for Spector at Abbey Road in May 1970 ("Beware of Darkness"and "Let It Down") and "My Sweet Lord (2000)", a partial re-recording of Harrison's biggest solo hit. In addition, Harrison resequenced the content of Apple Jam so that the album closed with "Out of the Blue", as he had originally intended. Assisting Harrison with overdubs onthe bonus tracks were his son, Dhani Harrison, singer Sam Brown and percussionist Ray Cooper.

All Things Must Pass is a triple album by George Harrison. Recorded and first released in 1970, the album was Harrison's first solo work since the break-up of The Beatles in April that year. The original vinyl release featured two LPs of rock songs as well as Apple Jam, a third disc of informal jams. Often credited as rock's first triple album, it was in fact the first by a single act, the multi-artist Woodstock live set having preceded it by six months.

The album was critically acclaimed and, with long stays at number 1 in both the US and the UK, commercially successful. It was certified 6 x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in 2001.

The outer Box Set was updated for the 30th anniversary release and Harrison oversaw revisions to Wilkes and Feinstein's album artwork, which included a colourised "George & the Gnomes" front cover and album booklet which portrays his long held dismay at the urbanisation encroachment on his Friar Park home.

Superb condition near mint, this will be a final upgrade copy of this great album for many collectors.
