BEATLES/GEORGE HARRISON~ALL THINGS MUST PASS~ORIG BOX SET~STILL SEALED~APPLE 639

Product Description

GEORGE HARRISON "ALL THINGS MUST PASS" APPLE STCH 639   ORIGINAL BOX SET! STILL SEALED!   CLICK ON THE IMAGE WHICH LOOKS LIKE A THIN LINE TO SEE A SCAN OF THE ACTUAL SPINE.   George Harrison "All Things Must Pass" on Apple STCH 639, an original pressing from 1970.  This 3 LP box set is still factory sealed in NEAR MINT condition!  The shrinkwrap is 98% intact except for a small split in the top of the spine. Box is in near perfect condition with virtually no sign of wear, mildew or other spoilage. An exceptional find!   Without a doubt, Harrison's first solo recording, originally issued as a triple album, is his best. Drawing on his backlog of unused compositions from the late Beatles era, George crafted material that managed the rare feat of conveying spiritual mysticism without sacrificing his gifts for melody and grand, sweeping arrangements. Enhanced by Phil Spector's lush orchestral production and Harrison's own superb slide guitar, nearly every song is excellent: "Awaiting on You All," "Beware of Darkness," the Dylan collaboration "I'd Have You Anytime," "Isn't It a Pity," and the hit singles "My Sweet Lord" and "What Is Life" are just a few of the highlights. A very moving work, with a very significant flaw: the jams that comprise the final third of the album are entirely dispensable, and have probably only been played once or twice by most of the listeners who own this record. Those same jams, however, played by Eric Clapton, Carl Radle, Bobby Whitlock, and Jim Gordon (all of whom had just come off of touring as part of Delaney & Bonnie's band), proved to be of immense musical importance, precipitating the formation of Derek & The Dominos. Thus, they weren't a total dead end, and may actually be much more to the liking of the latter band's fans.

RECORD GRADING POLICY

MINT = like new or near new with only one or two small insignificant defects, a 9 or better on a 1-10 scale

EXCELLENT = Would be Near Mint, except for a couple of light hairlines or scuffs, which do not affect play

VG++ = still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light, surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which should not materially affect play

VG+ = a nice, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It probably plays with a few pops, but has no serious problems.

VG = a well-used record that still should sound OK when played, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.

VG- = a very well-worn record that plays through without skipping, but will do until a better copy comes along.

Good = not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in the way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like

Fair = you are getting this record just to own but not to play

Poor = the sky's the limit, generally I will discard a record this bad (and sell the cover, jacket or sleeve alone) unless the label holds some particular interest
