'What Is Life' is a song by George Harrison and is the first track on side two of his 1970 solo album "All Things Must Pass". It was released as the second single from that album in the United States on February 15, 1971 with another album track, "Apple Scruffs," as the B-side.
The song was written for Billy Preston in 1969, but Harrison decided not to ask Preston to record the song during his "funky" phase, seeing the song as too much of a "catchy pop tune"
"All Things Must Pass" is a triple album by George Harrison, recorded and released in 1970 after the break-up of The Beatles. The first triple album by a solo artist, the original vinyl release featured two LPs of rock songs, while the third LP, titled "Apple Jam", was composed of informal jams led by Harrison with musician friends and famous musicians.
And some of George's words: "It goes without saying that it has always been a pleasure to have my old friend Ringo playing drums, along with Klauss on bass, Billy Preston on piano and a few friends I had in the process of making: Gary Wright and Gary Brooker" and the final note: "Last but certainly not least, the amazing Mr. Phil Spector, who producced so many fantastic records in the sixties. He helped me so much to get this record made. In his company I came to realize the true value of the Hare Krishna Mantra. God bless you Phil".
GOD BLESS YOU SWEET GEORGE!!
