What Are You Listening To?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

GEORGE HARRISON "all things must pass"  cd/vinyl 1970

my third George vinyl play for the day.
his third.
a highly ambitious album even for a Beatle, being a triple vinyl set especially when the Beatles never contemplated releasing a triple set and they had Lennon/McCartney in the band.
one Dylan cover and one co-written with Dylan here.
some folk, a hint of country with slide guitar, some rock/pop, someIndian influenced tracks and several instrumentals.
the experts all say this is the best solo album by any Beatle, i disagree.
yes, i think George is a fantastic guitarist and a good writer, but average singer.
twenty three tracks spread over six sides, some good, some bad and a handful of great tracks IMO.
not his best album by a long shot but yet again, another adventurous outing from Mr Harrison.
an all-star cast here: Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Dave Mason, Billy Preston, Ringo Starr, Ginger Baker, Peter Frampton and Gary Brooker to name a few.
i was never a fan of Spector's "wall of sound" and his co-production impedes this album IMO.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
