About All Things Must Pass
"All Things Must Pass" is a song written by English rock musician George Harrison. Harrison wrote the song in 1968 and introduced it to the Beatles during the "Get Back" sessions in January 1969. After not being included on Let It Be (1970), Billy Preston recorded and released the song as "All Things (Must) Pass" – on his Apple Records album Encouraging Words (1970). Harrison then recorded a version for his debut solo album All Things Must Pass, released in November 1970. The composition of Harrison's version reflects the influence of the Band's sound and communal music-making on Harrison, after he had spent time with the group in Woodstock, New York, in late 1968. In his lyrics, Harrison drew inspiration from Timothy Leary's poem "All Things Pass", a psychedelic adaptation of the Tao Te Ching.
