I think I got [the title] from Richard Alpert/Baba Ram Dass, but I'm not sure. When you read of philosophy or spiritual things, it's a pretty widely used phrase. I wrote it after [the Band's 1968] Music From Big Pink album; when I heard that song in my head I always heard Levon Helm singing it!

There is a version I have heard with just George and a heavy tremolo guitar and I can’t find it anywhere. There’s no drums or piano or horns or harmonies just George his guitar and his voice
That could be the version from the third disc of the Beatles Anthology. It was recorded on February 25, 1969, George’s 26 birthday.
Yes! That’s exactly the version I was looking for. Thank you very much!
Yea I kinda remember the version you talk about. Try on the Thirty Days box or some other get back sessions CD. Both Yellow dogs
If you have “A/B Road Complete Get Back Sessions” it is interesting that they were rehearsing “All Things Must Pass”. Never made it to the album. Lucky that we eventually got it.
It would be nice to spicify “acoustic guitar” , “lead guitar “, electric guitar ” on the instrumental line-up. Actually, though, it´s good to display the information about who exactly played on each track of this incredible and hitorical album, as you’re doing, Joe. Best regards !
I didn´t know that Eric Clapton and Bobby Whitlock sang backing vocal on this one, as it is often stated that George did all the vocals on the whole All Things Must Pass album.
