The story behind

There's something about the way I’d Have You Anytime unfolds that invites you to stay. It's not just a catchy melody, but an atmosphere that is built note by note, with that signature George Harrison slide guitar that seems to tell its own story. The song, which lasts about 3 minutes, feels like a musical embrace, something that arises from the deep connection Harrison forged with other musicians during 1968-1970, collaborating with artists such as Bob Dylan, The Band, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, and Billy Preston. It's as if all that experience had been distilled into this piece, showcasing a facet of his artistry that went beyond his role in The Beatles.

This song is part of All Things Must Pass, George Harrison's first major solo work after the dissolution of The Beatles in April 1970. The album, released in November of the same year as a triple LP, marked a before and after, presenting a distinctive sound and themes that had been gestating. I’d Have You Anytime, along with other tracks like My Sweet Lord and What Is Life, are part of this ambitious project that was produced by Harrison himself along with Phil Spector. It is a reflection of his maturity as a songwriter and his personal sonic quest, exploring the influences that shaped him in those years.
