A compelling account of the man whose smooth, elegant guitar technique
became the centrepiece of classic Beatles' albums and whose
compositions, whether for the group like 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps',
'Something' and 'Here Comes The Sun' or as part of his own successful
solo career like 'My Sweet Lord' or 'Got My Mind Set On You' became
classics in their own right. Moreover All Things Must Pass goes behind
the music and tries to understand the quiet and gentle, almost mystical
man at its heart. Sympathetically capturing George's courage in the face
of the savage cancers of his last year as well as his calmness in the
face of death, Shapiro portrays a life and career which will amaze and
excite all rock fans as well as the millions of Beatle devotees. A
fitting tribute to a great artist and a generous human being.
