All Things Must Pass is the third studio album by English rock musician George Harrison. Released as a triple album in November 1970, it was Harrison's first solo work after the break-up of the Beatles in April that year. It includes the hit singles "My Sweet Lord" and "What Is Life", as well as songs such as "Isn't It a Pity" and the title track that had been overlooked for inclusion on releases by the Beatles. The album reflects the influence of Harrison's musical activities with artists such as Bob Dylan, the Band, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends and Billy Preston during 1968–70, and his growth as an artist beyond his supporting role to former bandmates John Lennon and Paul McCartney. All Things Must Pass introduced Harrison's signature slide guitar sound and the spiritual themes present throughout his subsequent solo work. The original vinyl release consisted of two LPs of songs and a third disc of informal jams titled Apple Jam. Several commentators interpret Barry Feinstein's album cover photo, showing Harrison surrounded by four garden gnomes, as a statement on his independence from the Beatles.

*NO MATTER WHAT THE GRADE IS ON AN ALBUM, FROM VG. TO NM. SOME VINTAGE VINYL RECORDS CAN HAVE STATIC NOISE. DUST AND DIRT IN BETWEEN THE GROOVES CAN CAUSE THIS, I'VE HEARD IT ON ABSOLUTE PRISTINE COPIES TO COPIES WITH SCRATCHES , AGAIN THIS HAS NO EFFECT ON QUALITY SOUND. ITS A POPULAR BELIEF THAT RECORD MANUFACTURERS SELL A PRISTINE RECORD HOT OFF THE PRESS BUT NEW RECORDS CAN BE CONTAMINATED WITH FACTORY DIRT, PACKAGING DEBRIS AND RELEASE AGENTS FROM THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS , NOT TO MENTION STATIC CHARGE. The principal cause of static electric charge on the surface of a record is the friction between the playback stylus and the vinyl groove wall that occurs when a record is played. Another significant source is the process of removing a vinyl record from its plastic inner sleeve. Because the surface of a record is not conductive (vinyl is an insulator), any static charge that occurs stays locked, immobile on the surface of the record. During cold, dry weather that most of the country is now experiencing, that static charge builds up and is the source on clicks, pops, and noisy playback from our record players. As the record is being played, a microscopic, tiny spark will jump from the record surface to the stylus cantilever as an electrical discharge. That impulse is greatly amplified by the system electronics and results in the “staticiky” noise that you are experiencing.
I use Goldmine® visual grading and always try to grade conservatively.
M (mint) Record~ is new, shiny, never played. Sealed M (Mint) Jacket~ is new no marks, almost always sealed.
NM (near mint) Record~ is like new, probably played a few times, may have one or two light marks but it doesn't effects on the quality of a sound. NM (near mint Jacket~ is like new, may have a light corner bump, maybe one or two small creases. One or two light flaws.
EX (excellent) Record~ in great shape, may have light marks, played more than a few times but low in surface noise or no surface noise. EX (excellent) Jacket~ in great shape, has very little edge, spine and corner wear, a light corner bump, maybe some light creasing or ring wear. Maybe a sticker or two.
VG+ (very good plus) Record~ has been played more times, it has light marks and surface noise but doesn't overwhelm the music. It is well taken care of and it doesn't skip. VG+ (very good plus) Jacket~ may have more spine and edge wear, More ring wear, one or more stickers, light writing, a punch hole saw or corner cut. Light corner bends could have more creasing as well. No splits.
VG (very good) Record~ has been played many times, may have more surface noise, but it shouldn't skip while playing. VG (very good) Jacket~ has noticeably more spine and edge wear, some splits, more ring wear, tape, corner bends and creases, writing, punch holes and saw cuts could be in this category.
G (good) Record~ is in bad condition, this is worth only for archive items - just to have that until you find better. G (good) Jacket~ Very bad shape, only using until a better one is found.
