“People used to argue whether this triple album should have been edited down to one or two records – but this edition makes you believe it should have been a quadruple album.”
– ROLLING STONE
“George Harrison’s ‘All Things Must Pass’ 50th Anniversary Edition Proves It’s the Best Beatles Solo LP”
– VARIETY
“The Beatles guitarist’s most enduring solo album—tweaked and repackaged with bonus material—sounds better than ever at 50-plus.”
“Spector’s fingerprints remain, but the album now sounds warmer, punchier and more energetic, and the surround-sound mix is seductively immersive.”
– WALL STREET JOURNAL
“Remixed by Grammy Award-winning engineer Paul Hicks, the deluxe edition of ‘All Things Must Pass’ is chock-full of musical revelations. In Hicks' hands, the original album shimmers into life with the wider sonic palette made possible by technologies that would have been unimaginable five decades earlier.”
– SALON
“This new mix updates his finest work for today, in greater detail than ever before, while still managing to retain the atmosphere that binds these 106 minutes together.”
– UNCUT
“The original mix’s misty distance has gone, replaced with a clarity and definition that Harrison and Spector didn’t achieve (or seek) the first time around. Previously, one had to, like Spector during the playbacks, turn it up very loud to get the full effect. Not anymore. These mixes come to you.”
– MOJO
“These five-decade-old tapes sparkle with renewed life and a depth partially obscured by Spector’s heavy hand… it’s impossible to find fault with the obvious care and attention to detail dedicated to the end product.”
“All Things Must Pass is a landmark set; one that sounded timeless 50 years ago and will have the same effect 50 years from now. Even, perhaps especially, those who have lived with it for decades will enjoy this appropriately classy, beautifully crafted, refreshed/remixed, and likely definitive version.”
– AMERICAN SONGWRITER
“Epic, monumental”
– GUITAR WORLD
“Across 70 tracks, more than half of them previously unreleased, the album's evolution unspools via demos, outtakes and alternate versions, and it's a pretty remarkable journey.”
– ULTIMATE CLASSIC ROCK
“All Things Must Pass, the expanded 50th-anniversary reissue is nothing less than essential. It takes one of the greatest works in popular music history (forgive me if you think this is hyperbole but let’s at least admit that if so, it’s only slight), and expounds upon its genius by exposing its creation… Consider it the seminal reissue of a seminal original. You will find few done better.”
