Author Ken Womack has signed a hardcover copy of his book, All Things Must Pass Away: Harrison, Clapton and Other Assorted Love Songs

Renowned Beatles expert Ken Womack and music historian Jason Kruppa explore Harrison and Clapton's musical and personal collaboration, friendship, and rivalry

George Harrison and Eric Clapton embarked upon a singular personal and creative friendship that impacted rock’s unfolding future in resounding and far-reaching ways.

All Things Must Pass Away: George Harrison, Eric Clapton, and Other Assorted Love Songs trace the emergence of their relationship from 1968 through the early 1970s. In particular, authors Womack and Kruppa devote close attention to the climax of Harrison and Clapton’s shared musicianship—the November 1970 releases of All Things Must Pass, Harrison’s powerful emancipatory statement in the wake of the Beatles, and Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, Clapton’s impassioned reimagining of his art via Derek and the Dominos, the band that he created from the wreckage of Cream and Blind Faith.

All Things Must Pass Away will provide readers with a powerful overview of Harrison and Clapton’s relationship, especially in terms of the ways their revolutionary musicianship and songwriting would eclipse rock music as an evolving genre. With All Things Must Pass and Layla, Harrison, and Clapton bequeathed twin recorded statements that advanced rock ‘n’ roll from a windswept 1960s idealism into the edgy new reality of the 1970s.
