| | PopMatters Music Feature Reconsidering Let It Be |
 | | It is a song that reconnects the band with one of its earliest influences, The Everly Brothers. |  | | Let It Be, as released, is flawed album that manages to rock nearly as hard as McCartney and Lennon probably intended. |  | | Naked, a stripped-down version of Let It Be, the album culled by producer Phil Spector from the sessions shortly after the band broke up, is creating a bit of a buzz. |

| | Let it Be |
 | | During the "Let It Be" sessions something reminded Lennon of it, and it was re-recorded during the roof-top concert. |  | | The Beatles gave this song to the World Wildlife Fund for a charity album. |  | | McCartney had an unfinished blues song titled "I've Got A Feeling," and Lennon was working on a ballad titled "Everybody Had A Hard Year." Combined together, it was the last song that Lennon and McCartney wrote as song writing partners. |

| | Amazon.com: Let It Be... Naked: Music: The Beatles |
 | | "Let It Be...Naked" purports to be the Let It Be album as the Beatles originally intended, stripped of its Phil Spector excess...and...uh, well, reordered, I suppose. |  | | The back of "Let It Be...Naked" mentions that the bonus CD (which, thankfully, doesn't seem to add to the cost) provides a "unique insight into the recording of the album." This is untrue to a hilarious extent, unless quickly-edited snippets of dialogue and music appeal to you. |  | | Kicking off the album with this song is true to the spirit of the original Let it Be concept, which was supposed to be about the Beatles "getting back" to playing like a four piece rock band. |

 | | Jones collected twice a bunch of songs that were to be the "Get Back" album, and both times The Beatles and Allen Klein rejected the mixes. |  | | However, the song found in the LP was recorded in the studio and then the sound bits from the concert were added. |  | | Wildlife sounds were added to the song for that release (not intended by the Beatles) and was speeded up. |

| | The Beatles - Let It Be... Naked CD review |
 | | Let It Be& has an entirely different running order than the original album, which was originally released in May of 1970, as well as the first pressing of the CD, which was released in 1990. |  | | Let It Be is now the final song on the album (where I& always felt it belonged) and, again, the beauty of the song is in the hands of the Beatles. |  | | The songs on Let It Be reflect this and we get treated to some of the most soulful, introspective and reflective Beatles music ever captured on tape. |

 | | Generally regarded as the Beatles' last album, LET IT BE was actually recorded in 1969, before the recording and release of ABBEY ROAD. |  | | His songs are those that were released as singles, 'get back' 'long and winding road' and 'let it be'. |  | | Far from being a mediocre album, LET IT BE is almost painful in its evocation of remote gloom. |

| | Why Paul just can't let it be over song credits - theage.com.au |
 | | When the song appeared on one of the Anthology releases that have mined Beatles music in recent years, McCartney asked Ono if the credits could be transposed. |  | | The concert album by McCartney that hit the American charts this month, Back in the US, lists 19 Beatles songs written by "Paul McCartney and John Lennon," a transposition of the classic "Lennon-McCartney" signature line so recognisable across generations of music fans. |  | | He says omitting Lennon's name from a Beatles song credit would be cause for legal action by the late star's estate, but that transposing the credit likely does not because it neither misrepresents authorship nor damages the song as a property. |

| | The Beatles: Let It Be... Naked: Pitchfork Review |
 | | The best news about this record is that the songs themselves have not changed much in 33 years. |  | | Nevertheless, Let It Be was released in January 1970, after Abbey Road, and despite considerable differences of opinion on its "greatness" at the time, it has become yet another canonical set of Beatle music. |  | | These songs, the band's persona, the stances they took and lessons learned in front of the camera weren't just the exploits of a popular band, but live memoirs of the spiritual, artistic and disciplined Ideal. |

| | Blogcritics.org: "Let It Be . . . Naked" - November 17 |
 | | The song "Let it Be" itself was also improved by Spector's clever tracking of two Harrison guitar solos at the bridge of the song, and by his non-obtrusive chorus. |  | | Let It Be...Naked should be awsome sonically and all killer no filler...and hopefully the music album will finally outshine all the negativism that surround it's creation. |  | | Let It Be Same as the original release; with George's original guitar solo. |

| | Amazon.co.uk: Let It Be...Naked: Music |
 | | Let It Be, while obviously better than almost everything ever recorded by anyone else, was compromised by the fact that the Beatles were disintegrating as a unit during the recording sessions, the rancour most famously illustrated by John Lennon calling in Phil Spector behind Paul McCartney's back to rework "The Long and Winding Road". |  | | Having first discovered The Beatles in 1978 and having enjoyed the original Let It Be for 25 years and owned countless bootlegs of the original sessions I too was a little cynical about what this album could add to the Beatles' recorded output. |  | | However, after so many years of hearing the original 'Let it Be' (with the studio chit-chat between the tracks), you do kind of miss it a little bit when the songs fade down into silence... |

 | | Klein, who profited from any additional Beatles releases, was the most likely impetus behind the release of LET IT BE and the involvement of Phil Spector, with whom Klein had worked previously. |  | | A weak song, John was intent on having this song follow Let it Be because he thought it had christian references, and this song is about a hooker from Liverpool. |  | | Klein was notorious for bringing in his own people; George Harrison himself recalled that it was in fact Allen Klein who suggested to John and George that they should have Spector listen to the tapes. |

| | The Beatles Let it Be...Naked music : ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY |
 | | Reduced to just Lennon's voice, acoustic guitar, and soft percussion, the song is more poignant -- the vocals are among the clearest he recorded (Lennon preferred his voice obscured with reverb or filters). |  | | NO STRINGS ATTACHED Four songs on the original ''Let It Be'' -- McCartney's wistful ballad ''The Long and Winding Road,'' George Harrison's ego-blasting rocker ''I Me Mine,'' John Lennon's mystical meditation ''Across the Universe,'' and, to a lesser extent, the title track -- are awash in choirs, orchestras, and horns. |  | | Sharp-eared fans will notice, however, that a different take of George Harrison's guitar solo is used on ''Let it Be,'' and that the ''oohs'' of the Beatles backing McCartney are more prominent in the mix. |

 | | Surviving Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr plan to release on November 17 a newly revised edition of their classic 1970 swan song, which strips out the flowery orchestrations added by legendary producer Phil Spector and recaptures the Fab Four at their most intimate, the Beatles' company, Apple Corps. |  | | The quieter version, dubbed Let It Be...Naked and approved by the late George Harrison before his death in 2001, has long been a pet project of McCartney's, who thought the original recordings deserved to be heard and was never happy with the string arrangements and choral backing Spector added to "The Long and Winding Road." |  | | Naked nixes two tracks, "Dig It" and "Maggie Mae," plus background dialogue, and instad includes "Don't Let Me Down," a track that was not on the original album. |

| | The Beatles — “Let It Be
Naked” |
 | | Much of “Let It Be” was composed in a cold studio in January 1969 after the band had exhausted its ideas on the 30-song “Beatles” (White Album). |  | | The band put the “Let It Be” tapes aside and, a couple of months later, went to work on songs for one more great album, “Abbey Road” (written, recorded and released in an astonishing six-month period in 1969). |  | | While “Let It Be” bootlegs circulated, hours of the sessions were handed over to producer Phil Spector in 1970 to wade through with no Beatles supervision. |

| | Alan Jackson : Let It Be Christmas - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
 | | Jackson has always been a bit of a traditionalist, but it's still kind of surprising just how traditional this album is, recalling seasonal records from the '50s and '60s instead of the glitzy, lavish productions of the '80s and '90s. |  | | Smartly, these are almost all popular classics, apart from the title song which is a nice original from Jackson in the vein of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "White Christmas," meaning it's closer to traditional pop than country music. |  | | Instead of sounding incongruous, it's a perfect fit for a warm crooner such as Jackson, and by concentrating on classics, Let It Be Christmas is much stronger than most contemporary Christmas album. |
