"All Things Must Pass" is the best non-Beatles album by a Beatle

1. I liked it

but George was the mystic of the group, so it fits with my inclination.

om shanti shanti shanti

2. Nothing further to say.

next topic

[wysi]

3. Love it!

I'm partial to Plastic Ono Band, but ATMP is more listenable - I've certainly listened to it a lot recently.

[Taverner]

5. Definitely listenable

Right down to the guitar jams with Clapton at the end

SCHWEEET!!!!!!

[MissMillie]

4. No argument here

George was quite a loss.

[maveric]

6. Absolutely!

May be the best album ever IMHO.

[Goldmund]

7. I agree

8. I heard a good George Harrison story. When he was dying in the hospital,

friends would come visit and George would pretend he was sicker than he was and call them close so he wouldn't have to shout and then he'd rip off his gown and scare the crap out of them with all the tubes sticking in him and a give a big laugh. He just wanted to break the ice, let them know he was still George. He would also sing Beatles song with his buddies that visited. He loved being a beatle.

10. That sounds like George

As far as best album.....yeah, that's probably it, but I personally liked Imagine (the album) the best.

9. I really really like it but I give it to Band On The Run

sorry!
:kick:

[Pithlet]

17. I agree.

I love Band On The Run. It's the first music I can remember listening to, ever, so there is a childhood nostalgia factor. But, I still love it even now. I have to get that on CD.

11. Oh hell no

Imagine.

12. I like it a lot, but I like BOTR and POB as much

and let's not denigrate Cloud Nine and Brainwashed either

13. But you have to listen to it on vinyl

I have the remastered discs and songs like Awaiting on You All sound terrible on the disc

[FDRrocks]

15. Is Phil's "Wall of Sound"

as noticable on the vinyl? Cause I don't like the production on the disc at all. I think it says in my CD booklet that George was none-too-pleased with it in the long run.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

19. Yes...you actually hear the wall of sound on vinyl

it just sounds really washed out on the disc

[FDRrocks]

14. I like it, but on the whole

I think "Plastic Ono Band" is much more listenable. Everytime I hear the church bell toll on the radio I expect "Mother" to come on, it's always a goddamned AC/DC song.

16. I think George would say Lennon's albums were better

I would vote for Plastic Ono Band with Working Class Hero (a song you still can't hear on the radio unless they bleep it) et. al. over All Things Must Pass myself.

18. A three way tie along with Plastic Ono Band and Imagine....

Band on the Run and Ringo would be tied for second...
