[Review] George Harrison: All Things Must Pass (1970)

George had developed as a songwriter, but even Abbey Road didn’t prepare you for the creative outpouring of this triple-elpee set.

Apparently, Eno was just getting warmed up on Jets. Once heard, this album will change your world.

Ambient bits and pieces create a kind of Whitman’s Sampler of wispy works.

A remarkable musical travelogue that reflects his recent work with David Bowie, Darryl Hall, Peter Gabriel, The Roches and Brian Eno.

Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, dum, dum. Smartest thing he’s ever done.

This is coin of the realm for Phil Collins’ albums, leaving no misunderstanding that a star had been born.

Phil didn’t need to move heaven and earth to have a hit, just earth, wind and fire.

The second album repeats the success of the first down to the smallest details, which is a bit, um, boring.

More or less “In the Air Tonight, the Day After” with a Beatlesque twist in the middle.

Another single from Phil’s second album, in case you were planning on buying it on the installment plan.

Nominated for an Academy Award, this song also managed to top the US charts.

Here’s a clear sign of the end of days: Phil Collins pretending to be Prince.

The album where Phil Collins became a commercial force and probably began earning more money than some small countries.

Slowhand makes a modern synthesizer album with Phil Collins and it actually sounds pretty good.

Great material, august guests and Phil Collins’ magic bag of Motown produce one of Clapton’s best albums from any period, period.
