RE All Things Must Pass:

It’s a beautiful album. Harrison was an incredible songwriter and gifted musician. The McCartney-Lennon team just overshadowed him, IMHO.

There’s a song on Abbey Road called “Something” that Harrison wrote. To my mind, it is one of THE all-time most amazing love songs ever written.

He just had a way with words and music.

He was 100% the underrated Beatle. I remember my Mom getting weepy when he died. I was bummed out.

If you don’t have it, I recommend getting the 2 CD set “George Harrison In Japan”. He still sounded great in the late 90s/very early 00s.

Except Harrison stole the song “My sweet Lord” from the Chiffons. It’s a complete rip off of “He’s so fine”. Virtually note for note.
