Not really my vibe honestly. I’m a little bored by it. Nothing too bad to the ears, nothing I wanna skip, it’s listenable, just not enjoyable for me.

Sorry Georges, but it bored me.
This was always gong to be a tough listen. I cannot stand The Beatles, and I despise double albums. I was not pleasantly surprised although the last part of this album is, strangely, better than the first.
**An ok album, maybe 5 out of 28 tracks had a different sound. Most sounded similar. Easy listening, no loud banging instruments. Pleasant but redundant.

Meh. I'm not impressed
it's such a long album, especially for someone not into the beatles. i get why it's in here hahahaha, but man does this album drag so much in the 2nd half, by the end it just feels like a jam session lmao. it has some good tracks tho. fav song: my sweet lord
Again, another 2 hour plus album. Any album 2 hours is more is just taking the piss.
Beatles never were my cup of tea really, this album has some good classic but agree with others far too long and too many B-sides!
Very very good songwriting, cool instrumentals. Still very old and boring. Just basic rock production.very cool cover art
Not a bad album, but not really anything that stood out. Too long for it's own good. 2.5/5
It was nice to listen to this and imagine my friends enjoying it
The music itself is good. But 2 hours?????? That's enough time to make the best album of all time a total slog to get through. Let's get some variety in there. I just don't understand why this needed to be so long. Self-indulgence? I'm not sure, but I'm not about it. 2 stars because this length is torture. If this album was trimmed down to even 1 hour, I could easily see a 3-4 star.
I get that trying to share the spotlight with the McCartney/Lennon duo was probably difficult as a songwriter but the way to work through that cannot possibly be a triple LP of boring Beatles songs
This was a drag. I think the most interesting thing about this album is the guitar sounds on My Sweet Lord, which is another one of those songs where i'm not sure if i actually like it or if i've heard it twelve million times. eleven minute instrumental to close out was a plus, imo.
This album runs long and would have benefitted from some cuts but overall it's not too bad. There's some good guitar and harmonica combos, you can hear the blues and Dylan inspiration throughout, but it's not anything I need to revisit. The whole thing is pretty mediocre. 2.35.
A lot of content here from the quiet Beatle. Not all of it was needed and like a lot of the lengthy albums on the list...could have been trimmed. Harrison is quite good on guitar though and has always been the deeper one of the fab five which is noticeable in many of the tracks. I recognized a few but preferred the lesser known jams at the end. Certainly came "Out of the Blue" so "Thanks for the Pepperoni" George but I'm more of a plain slicer guy...2.3.
Going in to this listen I expected a lot of this triple album would be skippable filler. While I don't think I'll come back to ATMP, I was surprised how competent it was. There aren't much in the way of high points or hits, but there also aren't many low points. It's a pretty solid collection of songs that do more than enough to prove that George was an effective song writer. While the inclusion of the Apple Jams on the back end aren't something I will revisit it felt good to get a slice of George's musical mindset in the wake of The Beatles breakup. I'd probably say that various cuts get a little too spiritual and holy, but I guess that's to be expected from George. Honorable mention to the songs that were co-written with Bob Dylan which were some of the strongest tracks. I imagine the release of All Things Must Pass was a huge and cathartic moment for both George Harrison and his fans alike. I've always liked George's influence on the band and will continue to hold him in high regard even if All Things Must Pass will get mostly shelved by me. I don't plan to re-listen to All Things Must Pass but I do believe I had to hear this album before I died. 2.38 stars
I don't doubt the talent, just not for me. A generous 2 stars for Art of Dying and Out of the Blue.
alrighty George, mi is kinda off with the vocals in the back but maybe that will figure itself out. This sounds a lot like an extension of Sargent Peppers. And if thats your thing, this album is like a goldmine. I'm sort of ambivalent on the thing. I am absolutely taking a star for making me sit through the Jam session.
Interesting, I would have never listened to it on my own.
I can't believe that we had to listen to a 2-hour album, but we are finally done. There was one song that was popular - My Sweet Lord, and the rest were half alright jams for background listening and half just meh songs. They all seem to have quite a lot of listens on Spotify, so the album definitely has fans but it was just overall a bit meh.
The music was okay. I didn’t really vibe with it. I guess it really wasn’t my cup of tea. I know I’ll never go back and listen to it again. Disc 1: 1. What Is Life 2. If Not For You 3. My Sweet Lord 4. I'd Have You Anytime 5. Behind That Locked Door 6. Run Of The Mill 7. Isn't It A Pity 8. Wah-Wah 9. Let It Down Disc 2: 1. Ballad Of Sir Frankie Crisp 2. Art Of Dying 3. Hear Me Lord 4. All Things Must Pass 5. Isn't It A Pity 6. Beware Of Darkness 7. Awaiting On You All 8. I Dig Love 9. Thanks For The Pepperoni 10. Plug Me In 11. I Remember Jeep 12. Out Of The Blue 13. Apple Scruffs 14. It's Johnny's Birthday
Ok
2 uur. 2 uur!?!?!?!? WIE DE FUCK HEEFT HIER TIJD VOOR? Wie wilt 2 uur lang naar een van de beatles solo luisteren? Blijkbaar ik, want ik heb besloten dat ik elk album toch een eerlijke kans moet geven.. Heb oprecht al een aantal keer geprobeerd door dit album te komen. Het lukt me niet, het is gewoon te veel middelmatige muziek. Ik denk dat hier een heel sterk album in zit, maar er zit voor mij echt te veel filler in. Maar goed, gezeik over de lengte van het album hebben we nu gehad, hoe is de muziek? Prima. Gewoon prima. Maar toch gaat er een ster vanaf want dit is te veel meh om 3 sterren te zijn. FAVO: What is Life, If not for you,
I get it. He was a Beatle. But like... This needed an editor. Someone to tell Harrison that the good ideas here are being drowned with hundreds of wasted bars. This is considered a serious classic and I do not get it.
Not my cup of tea
Absolute shit
Far too long. Might have been enjoyable if cut down to a normal length
Pretty much unexciting to the kinda sounds that stir and excite me, sorry George, you deserve more credit .. 2 stars
Why is it so long? There are some late Beatles-y moments melodically and production-wise. Highlights: "My Sweet Lord" (earworm), "Isn't It a Pity" (nice piano work), "Run of the Mill", "Beware of Darkness" (seems confessional lyrics-wise and dramatic with the piano-based backing music)
Not nearly as bad as I thought it’d be! More or less insufferable when Harrison is actually singing, but fortunately, that’s not all that frequently. Two hours is pretty ridiculous though.
Never was a fan - still not - 28 tracks to listen too, no chance
Sigh. I can’t get into the vibe. And it was so long it felt like a slog.
A few highlights like "My Sweet Lord" or "What Is Life" but over all quite boring. Every single song is way too long and therefore the whole album is much too long! 2,5
Nice. 2,5
After 6 or 7 songs I felt like I had enough of the album. Had no desire to put myself through 2 hours of this
I like this better than Beatles. Not by much, and the length certainly doesn't help, but it's listenable Honestly, the last 30 minutes really tested my patience. Still don't think it's a 1-star level
Some good stuff, however there's an overall feeling of 'meh' that runs throughout.
lol @ 2 hours of runtime.
too long for no reason, it made all the songs kinda blend together. good background music though
The slide guitar is cool, but this is one bloated album of generally very similar-sounding songs.
Folksy and boring
this felt like 2 hours of Beatles B Sides - zoned out several times whilst listening.
Too long, too full of himself. Why the decision to have multiple versions of some meh songs was made will remain a mystery? A lot of this was a real chore to get through. Clearly the real songwriting talent did not lay with Harrison. Favorite: What is Life Rating: 2
some decent songs on here but hardly worth it for the 1.5 hrs slog of the original release.
O shit, een Beatle vandaag. Gelukkig wel een stille Beatle en dat heb ik toch het liefst. Nou ja stilte? Meneer levert ook nog eens een DRIEdubbel album. Alsof dat nog niet genoeg is, wordt er gelinkt naar een versie met bonus-nummers. Die laatste haal ik snel uit de luisterlijst, maar de moed is me al wel in de schoenen gezonken. Ik duik het internet maar even op. Het eerste resultaat op google komt niet van Wiki, maar is een rating op de 1001. (Google vertelt vaak meer over de zoeker dan over het gezochte...) Het is een duidelijke, maar lange recensie. Korte samenvatting. Wie denkt die George dat hij is? Dat hij denkt dat het fijn is om zo lang naar een album te luisteren met zelfs meerdere keren meerdere versies van één nummer. Ook jij, George, maakt de ene keer betere muziek dan de andere keer. Schrijven is schrappen! Had ik natuurlijk niet moeten lezen, want ik luister dan pas naar het eerste nummer. Zo laat ik mij wellicht flink beïnvloeden. Aan de andere kant waren de verwachtingen al laag. Niet alleen omdat ik jeuk krijg van veel Beatle muziek, ook omdat dat eerste nummer is een co-productie is met mijn tweede allergie Dylan. Daarna klinkt het echt wel fijner. Al hoor je best nog een stil Beatles-geluid. Bij Behind That Locked Door kijk ik vanuit verveling hoe lang dit nog moet duren. Dat is dus bij het begin van kant 2 van de 6 kanten. Ik geeft bovenstaande recensie maar een like. Ik herken het gevoel nu al sterk. Ik heb het uitgezeten. Gelukkig volgt er nog een instrumentaal gedeelte aan het einde. Een welkome afwisseling. Maar 11 minuten lang hetzelfde thema. Dat is ook lang hoor. Conclusie. Alles aan dit album kan met minimaal de helft ingekort worden. Met een goede selectie was waarschijnlijk een uitstekend album over gebleven.
Not sure I needed almost two hours of George Harrison
I don't want to continue, some nice songs but just boring...
Not so great. Overrated musician
A little bland
l'ho ascoltato metà perché trooooppo lungo, però carino. ho imparato cosa sono gli Harem Krishna e ho scoperto di più su un personaggio un po' nascosto dei Beatles. mi è piaciuta la scelta dell'immagine dell'album. direi 2 stelle.
My Sweet Lord Isn't It a Pity What Is Life
Glad that's over. Too long and pretty boring.
bleibt Produktionstechnisch und qualitativ hinter den Beatles zurück aber ein paar Melodien und licks sind eingängig. Insgesamt sind die songs zu simpel.
Why is it two hours
Liian pitkä. Ei keskittyminen riittänyt ja tuli kuunneltua niin monessa pätkässä, että ei noussut ihmeellisesti esiin
so many double albums 😠
Nice guitar playing, boring vocals. Overall pretty bland
Nice not awesome
ok
Naja
One or two decent songs, but on this list because of who he is IMHO
Can't say I've ever liked this album. Mediocre. Terrible cover of Dylan's If Not For You.
So there are some classics here. Some meaningful lyrics and intense production. But writing good lyrics makes you a poet, not a songwriter. Don't get me wrong, there's gold here. But there's a lot of dross. Probably better with a relaxing herbal medicine.
first song in...this album is two years. i dont see myself listening to all of this. okay it sounds pretty relaxing so far. ill let this ride in the background while i get other things done
Not as good as I hoped. I have put this album off for so long because it is a 2 hour album, and I finally have listened to it, and its so meh.
Geo Harrison is a talented musician, but I really don’t like his music during this time.
i only liked the first song but everything else was mid
i wish this album would've passed a little faster
Idk it’s fine
I wish I could give this more than one day but I can’t! I must move on!
I doubt I'm the first person to say that this proves that Lennon and McCartney were right and Harrison had obviously bought a load of average songs into the Beatles rehearsals. If all double albums might have made a good single album, this triple album has a great EP in it.
Too mellow for me
Yea I passed on that one
Meh
He definitely proved he's not just that dude who was allowed to hang out with Lennon and McCartney. I would have liked this record better than John Lennon's solo records if it wasn’t way too long with way too much filler. Favorite song: Art Of Dying.
Enjoyable background music but otherwise way too long
Not my favorite album ever but still good. It has some fun songs on it. Very folky, it reminds me of being on a farm far away from civilization lol.
Not my favourite.
Fine songs, but entirely too long. It makes listening to the whole an issue
Deserves another listen some time. There's real talent here, but it didn't do much for me; I didn't vibe with it.
Not my style
The last few songs are a poor reward for trudging through an album that is as dreary and droning as it is long.
Boring and long.
It's really really good song writing, but it's not the kind of song writing that does it for me
George really needed an editor or a producer with some gumption on this one. A triple album? Really George? Pare it down and it's decent. But this is overwrought and disappointing. Some high quality musicians save this from being a total dud.
Entirely too long. Ridiculous. Also, I understand he was a Beatle but he can be told to tighten up the songs. With all of that said, the songs are good, but they dont need to be a jam session. Some songs will be revisited but never the whole album. If this album had not been two hours and the songs tightened up it would have been much higher.
Had been a three if it wasn't too long
like a few songs on this, but over all it felt like 6 different albums. A lot of the songs sounded like he was making his version of someone else songs. I feel like he was in search of his voice and he was searching for it by trying on others' voices.
Terrible
i have always hated this record oh despite the title its fucking endless
This was long. Plug Me In and Out of the Blue were the best. Not my favorite song writer.
Not really into post Beatles stuff.
Overall okay. Pretty samey, but overall pretty chill. Peaceful and tranquil, but not too many I'd listen to again, but a handful that are pretty good for sitting outside on the porch. Nice daytime feels, but a style that isn't too standout or me enough to be anything more than background music, or fine to hear through someone elses playlists; not for me to own. And also waaaayy too long. But that could just be because it's a remaster/rerelease, so I don't know if I can count that as a criticism or not
Thought it was fine. The highs were very high (My Sweet Lord, Wah-Wah) and the lows were very low (Apple Scruffs). If you love the Beatles I can see how one would like this album but I don’t love them so 2.5 stars from me for Mr. Harrison.
I don't really get the Beatles sleepy sound.
slow, chill. Likely won't listen again.
man, that got kind of boring.
ok
too long
you: "Mom, can we get The Beatles?" mom: "No. We have The Beatles at home." The Beatles at home:
i ain’t listening to all that.
Piecie rocknroll verder saai
I mean the Beatles were good...George on his own was mediocre. Loved the melodies and guitar but the songs got muddied together easily.
Not really anything better than very middle of the road.
The crown jewel of bloated albums. This could have been a great 30-minute album, but good old George decided that not only was a double album not enough, he was gonna do a TRIPLE album. The instrumental jam session is completely devoid of any cool ideas. It's just a random rockabilly jam session... and it takes up an entire disc. He's still the most talented Beatle.
Blimey, long album is long! Some decent tracks here - especially for 1970 - but by golly gosh there's some self indulgence about. "Let it down" is interminable. It could do with being 7 minutes shorter, and no mistake. I feel that someone, somewhere in the process of making this should have said "Look George, I know you were a Beatle, but I really think you should trim the playing time by about ⅔ here mate..." It's just too damn long. If he'd put this out as three separate albums he'd have got one very good album, one good album and a pile of dross. But it somehow made it into the wild being over two hours long. And that shouldn't have been allowed to happen.
Jeez that was long
Harrison's music is just less joyful and fun compared to Lennon and McCartney. His songs come of as being whiney to me. Isn't it a pity is probably the best song on this overlong album but some songs, particularly Wah Wah are just plain annoying.
Beatles but more folk like. Should be cut in half 2 hours is too damn long
tää levy sai mut huomaamaan, että Georgehan laulaa Beatlesissa tosi paljon ja taitaa olla mun lempi-beatle. isot biisit, isot raamit, mutta esittää pientä. onneksi ei yhtään sievää. herättää vähän mielenkiintoa, mutta ei soittolistalle asti. ehkä?
Paljon kauniita ääniä ja melodioita, jotka kuitenkin sekoittuvat yhdeksi, keskitempoiseksi, vivahdeettomaksi Spector-mössöksi. Joka ei muuten lopu koskaan.
If this wasn't an Ex Beatle I feel this would have no where the recognition it has. Mostly super boring "My Sweet Lord" was OK, the rest I just found dull to get through. 1.6
A tale of two albums. The first - two disks of roughly 90 minutes of demo material (i.e. songs that weren't good enough for John and Paul, but in actuality would have been improvements over some of the dribble and filler they routinely pushed out) on which George mostly tries to recreate the sound and success of either "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" or "Something". 3 Stars because at times he makes you feel like he just might pull it off. The second (titled Apple Jam) - roughly 30 minutes of bluesy acoustic studio jamming and a truly annoying birthday song. If the first album is full of b-sides, than these are equivalent to f sides. 1 star deducted. Overall, very listenable but hard to make a case for essential.
No. I don’t know why I hated it this much but I did
I've discovered I don't care for any Beatles post-Beatle. Just overly self-indulgent. Honestly, I only like their early pre-superstar music.
I noped out at hare krishna.
Not my thing
not for me
Ordinarily I would give this type of thing 2 stars, but for how long it has gone on for it will now only get 1.
Only thing I remember about this album after listening it is hare Hare Hare Krishna. That's not much....
This is better than Beatles, but that's not much...
Se me hizo muy aburrido, no era el momento para escuchar ese disco
Every song sounds the same
old man slop
Yeah, I listened to it. And I did not like what I heard...
Trash
Not a fan
There should be a law against this sort of thing.
I hate the Beatles and all of the members. I will not be listening to this
Beatles ama kötüsü xdddd
What a slog! A well executed and melodic slog but a slog none the less. Ringo was a vastly better album. I tried to frame it in the context of the times but then saw it was released in 1970. That year gave us Sex Machine, Bitches Brew, Loaded, Fun House, Zeppelin II Paranoid for Lemmy's sake! In a year of such groundbreaking and emotional work I truly fail to see how this qualifies, being a Beatle isn't enough.
Great songs for falling asleep but seriously I was about to fall asleep into the deepest sleep ever .😌 I might use this album when I want to have a good nights sleep and no I didn’t finishh it😀
All things must pass, except perhaps this triple album from everyone's second favourite Beatle, weighing in at 2 hours and 5 minutes on the remastered edition. Add George to the list of artists who apparently believe "more is more." At least any curiousity I might have had about Harrison's solo work has been thoroughly answered.
i didnt listen to this and i dont like music at all why would i care hftgf
DNF #ihatethebeatles
Schande auf mein Haupt, aber ich finds komplett langweilig.
This is extremely overrated. Just like The Beatles themselves.
It's good but I don't want to listen to this stuff it's so aggressive
Lo de sacar un disco dedicado a Dios no es moda de ahora, escuchare lo pueda pero solo habla de cristianismo sectario.
Hey do you want to hear George Harrison coo into the microphone for 2 hours to a backdrop of music neither exciting or interesting? I sure don’t. Are there some good songs in this? Probably. But I won’t be going back into the trenches of dripping kitsch
Why the frack am I even listening to this sheit?? How's this dribble in the top 500 best rock albums ever?? Has everyone lost their collective marbles?? Walk away while you can, nothing to be gotten here... PS: I dig love (2014, remastered edition, cd2), has nice stereo imaging. Still not great though 😂 PS: in regards to track 21, isn't it a pity, the answer is: yes, indeed, for there are 6 more tracks to get through. I hope mister Harrison doesn't quit his day job 🙏😔 Edit; 27, frack! Out of the blue I really dig a track here! Finally.
Ähm. Check das placement ned. Es ish ja afach e compilation mit Songs und zum Teil mehrmols de glich. Zwei Stund und denn mehrmols de glich stuff ish mir afach eine zlang. Es verschmilzt afach alles zu einere Hippie-Pfütze. Zwei Tracks wo mir ufgfalle sind (und ja sie sind am afang) My Sweet Lord weirded me out aber defür ish Wah-Wah en zimliche Banger. He checks ned ganz. Sorry aber de Spot uf dere Liste het es anders Album meh vedient. Es git mer de vibe als obs afach de Beatles nomol extra hend welle Credit geh.
There were about 28 songs that shouldn't be in this album.
It's amazing what The Beatles achieved given the fairly generic solo material they all put out after the band split. Harrison was sued for the one good tune here, and the rest is over-played and under-cooked seventies rock fare. Nothing stood out, and much of it put me in mind of Oasis, which is not a great place to be.
Way too slow for my tastes, but it has potential. 2/10
I’d never heard All Things Must Pass before, and honestly, I kind of wish I still hadn’t. Phil Spector’s production is completely over the top, with layered choirs, orchestras, reverb, and enough guitars to bury anything personal or reflective. It feels like Harrison handed him a journal and Spector turned it into a Broadway finale. Even George admitted later that it was too much and tried to remix it. I get why some people love the grandiosity, but to me it smothers whatever sincerity might have been here. This project was supposed to reconnect me with music. Instead, it has drained my enthusiasm. If this is what “important” albums look like, I’m out.
-Wonky -Too yeehaw in a bad way -"Isn't It A Pity" is interesting
Not for me. 1/5
Boring and all sounded the same. Didnt finish this marathon of a snoozefest
didn’t listen
Beatles fucking sucks and so does every solo act from past members.
Não sei se estava no clima para esse álbum, mas foi uma tortura escutar ele. Irei escutar novamente uma outra hora para ver se muda minha avaliação, mas por enquanto... péssimo álbum
Écoute très ennuyante, que fait cet album dans cette sélection ?
Meh
Yeah not really into this on. I know a song from this album but its just to mellow and not in the mood. I listen to disk and couldn't make it to disk 2. Hard Pass for me.
No, not for me.
Erm, what the sigma??
Liked Song What Is Life
0/10 Унылая параша унылого парашника из битлз. Эту подборку альбомов делали любители ушной уринотерапии, иначе не получится объяснить то, что они запихнули сюда чуть ли не всю дискографию битлз, а в придачу к этому ещё и вонючие сольники её участников. Не альбом, а растянутая на полтора часа невыносимая пытка, на которую по-хорошему, должна бы распространяться Женевская конвенция. Вонючий говноед высрал ртом овер 20 звуковых файлов смерти в свой альманах говна, причём каждая последующая звучит как и предыдущая, а их говнистость развивается в геометрической прогрессии. В итоге говноед, любитель люто выдать неслушабельного пердежа (неслушабельного, если ты, конечно, не один из тех водолазов - любителей, которые накрутили альбомам битлз 4+ рейтинг), был скипнут на половине альбома, так ему и надо! Слава Роду - нет битлам обосранным!
Ok
I tried- but still not crazy about George
I have a visceral hatred of My Sweet Lord which has now expanded to the rest of the album.
Yet another unnecessary sampler from a now uninteresting artist. Regards to those in marketing who did this.
Sin escuchar, pintón de destilar wisky, haberse comprado un banjo y pasarse el dia con el cassete grabando mierdas borracho. Al final es eso pero a guitarra, es guiri el man
Album #10 I am not a fan of GH and this album is classic GH. I don't really have anything to say about it and the only word that comes to mind when I listened to this album was "Meh!"
Could not launch. Tried all day.
All things must pass...including this album
Eh, had like 1 Good song
Repetitive and uninteresting songs with some of the most shallow boring ass lyrics
yet another singer songwriter guitar strum along album pass Oh apparently hes a beatle. still pass NNNNNNNNNNN
Very long will have to get back too
Overrated.
Boring. Wholesome. Did I say boring? Also, wholesome. Neither of which I enjoy. Is it technically sound? Yes. Is it objectively good? Sure. Will I ever play it again? Not unless forced or otherwise coerced.
Seichte Rockmusik, die selten mitreißt. Fahrstuhlmusik?
Rating low just for the length
Chill, but not really my cup of tea.
Boring
Not really my style. The remastered version in Spotify is too bloated with alternate takes. A few good songs but mostly forgettable.
I'll admit my foot was tapping to the beat for most of the album, but I was also eye-rolling and waiting for most songs to end well before they were over. Sorry Beatles fans, I've let you down once again. This album is just so tame, domestic, slow, and self-indulgent. Ol' George's vocals are often lost in the mix of the track as well. It has almost none of the things that I like in music.
