50 years of “My Sweet Lord,” George Harrison's spiritual hymn

23 November, 2020 - 0 Comments

The exBeatle George Harrisonclassic “My Sweet Lord”celebrates half a century after its successful appearance in 1970, still surrounded by controversy of allegations of plagiarism and the spiritual aura of his Hindu inspiration.

Harrison was known as the “Quiet Beatle” for his preference to stay away from fame, despite being a rock star, and for his interest in Hinduism, which began to mark his life following the American Beatles tour in 1966.

The guitarist of the Liverpool quartet released the hit single “My Sweet Lord” on his first solo album “All Things Must Pass” (1970), after the separation of the Beatles.

The song, recorded at Abbey Road studios in London under the production of Phil Spector, featured musicians such as guitarist Eric Clapton and fellow ExBeatle Ringo Starr on drums.
