George Harrison Hated the Reverb Phil Spector Put on 'All Things Must Pass'
George Harrison didn’t care what anyone thought of his music. It was great when fans liked it. However, George made music because he wanted to, not because fans or record companies demanded it. When George went in to record All Things Must Pass, he wanted to prove to himself that he could make a successful album.
George wanted it to be perfect and had it all mapped out before stepping foot in a recording studio. Although, it didn’t exactly turn out as perfect as George imagined. Later, George confessed he wasn’t too happy with the reverb producer, Phil Spector added.
Over the lockdown, George’s widow, Olivia, their only son, Dhani, and Grammy award-winning producer, Paul Hicks worked on remastering All Things Must Pass for its 50th-anniversary edition. One of the hardest things about the project was respecting the originals while toning down Spector’s reverb, which he used in most productions.
