George Harrison's All Things Must Pass Getting 50th Anniversary Deluxe Reissue

Often referred to as his masterpiece, George Harrison’s landmark 1970 album All Things Must Pass is getting some major additions for its 50th anniversary, with new boxsets out Aug. 6 on Capital/UMe. A stunningly personal portrait of the artist following the dissolution of The Beatles, the “Super Deluxe Edition” of the album will feature 70 tracks across either eight LPs or five CDs (and even Blu-ray audio discs!), depending on which version you choose. These new songs will be made up of unreleased demos, studio jams and outtakes, while the original tracks have been remastered by Paul Hicks, with executive production from Harrison’s son, Dhani.

Included with the limited run of “Uber Edition” issues is a scrapbook that features “archival notes, track-by-track annotation, rare photos, memorabilia and more,” per a press release, as well as a 44-page book that tracks the making of All Things Must Pass through interviews with collaborators and Harrison’s old notes, all designed in a way that pays homage to Harrison’s esteem and admiration for the natural world. Figurines of Harrison and the gnomes that populate the album’s cover will also be included in the Uber Edition, which houses each item in a gorgeous wooden crate.

Today’s (June 10) announcement is accompanied by a video for “Run Of The Mill (Take 36),” a previously unheard and remixed cut from the album. Directed by Gavin Davis, the video animates the iconic imagery from the album, breathing new life into these old recordings.

Both editions of All Things Must Pass are available for preorder here. Watch the video for “Run Of The Mill (Take 36)” below, as well as a trailer for the album (and a 1975 Harrison interview from the Paste archives), and check out the 70-song tracklist further down.
