Avec un an de retard, le triple album de l’ex-Beatle fête son cinquantenaire par une édition Super Deluxe, disponible le 6 août. Revue de détails.
All Thing Must Pass est le premier album de George Harrison à être sorti après la séparation des Beatles.
Longtemps frustré de ne pas pouvoir proposer plus de chansons au sein des Beatles, dominé par le tandem Lennon/McCartney, George Harrison se rattrape avec un triple album qui sort le 30 novembre 1970. Produit par Phil Spector, Harrison s’entoure de ses amis Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Klaus Voormann, Billy Preston, ainsi que plusieurs des musiciens de Derek and the Dominos qui accompagnèrent Clapton sur l’album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs.
All Things Must Pass est aujourd’hui considéré comme le meilleur album solo de la carrière de George Harrison, avec des classiques comme My Sweet Lord, Wah-Wah, ou Isn’t It A Pity.
RETROUVEZ MA CHRONIQUE PUBLIÉE L’ANNÉE DERNIÈRE POUR LES 50 ANS :
50 ans après, voici ce chef d’œuvre enfin réédité avec 43 demos et outtakes inédits, remixés par Paul Hicks auquel nous devons les dernières rééditions des albums de John Lennon (Imagine, Plastic Ono Band). Ces nouveaux mixes révèlent une profondeur sonore, une définition et une clarté à couper le souffle.
