From All Things Must Pass, a triple-album!

During the 1969 "Let it Be" sessions, George tried to get Paul and John interested in playing this song, to no avail. It's no wonder George had so many songs stored up and ready to record.

Harrison biographer Simon Leng describes this song as "slow-cooking, gospel rock."
