THE END OF THE BEATLES | THE STORY OF LET IT BE | CLASSIC ALBUMS

After finishing the tense recording sessions of the white album, the beatles took a break from a relationship that seemed to be increasingly frayed. On the verge of breaking up, Paul McCartney proposed the Get Back project as an alternative to solve the band's problems, without so much complexity in its recording and returning to its roots, the project proposed an album, a television special with a concert that would give the Beatles a second chance. But the beatles got their reality check when tensions and their artistic differences returned, locked in a film studio and with an improvised concert on the rooftop of their studios, the beatles were wondering about their future in January of 1969.

Man O man! I’ve been going through these all afternoon. What a fabulous station you’ve created. Huge cheers to you and your storytelling. I love the Beatles, and now I love them even more. Many thanks.

This is so in depth and wonderful. Thank you for making this video. I think this might be my favorite Beatles album. There’s something magical about the “LIVE” style recording.

They went out on top. I would hate the Beatles ruin their legacy by releasing a disco album in the 70s, a new-wave album in the 80s, and an adult-contemporary album in the 90s.

[RogerUTube]

I particularly like your use of isolated tracks and the best quality of video - great job, thanks!

They were together way too much. Everything they did together with Ringo was a 9 yr period. White album just came out like 4 or 5 months before this get back project. Take some time off fellas. I get George getting flustered. The dark horse at that point was just as good if not better songwriter than Lennon and McCartney. Harrison wrote the best songs on the white album and Abby road.
Also what is crazy all the Beatles where In there 20’s when they broke up. They were just kids. It’s amazing they staying together as long as they did.
Really good video thank u

Thank god for Paul for holding the gang together for the last 4 years ❤

It was their last will and testimony - as everything else to come our later, would be out of the cans. We all think of it as their final album - although Abbey Road actually was as a band.

Absolutely fantastic have a wonderful day ❤😊

The "Naked" version is a better listen for me.

[ericbgordon]

I always consider it a deep irony that my first Beatles album was *Abby Road, * the last full-length record the Beatles recorded together and my last was the original 1970 issue of *Let It Be.* I always enjoyed it, even if it isn't "supposed to be enjoyed". (That's a reaction to texts I've written about how this album is the least satisfying issue in the Beatles' catalog.)

[WisconsinWanderer]

As George said “All Things Must Pass” I don’t like that quote but regrettably it’s true. I loved them all but George was my favorite Beatle.😊

[TameTones]

I’ve got a feeling, Dig a pony AND One after 909 were taken from the rooftop for the album. It was clearly stated in Get Back

[overjoyous]

That's not true. One After 909 was not the only song they used from the rooftop on the album. Dig A Pony and I've Got A Feeling were both the rooftop recordings also. You can hear Ringo sneeze and abruptly stop right as George is counting off Dig A Pony. That bit is from the rooftop performance.

[fourthtunz]

I like Glenn John’s mixes. Let it be naked was nice.

[nikolic-sqrx]

great album, one of my favorite of beatles, and phil did a great job, exept long and winding road -

[joemasse]

You say Paul thought they should do Let it Be, because he wanted to keep them motivated? People have to realize the white album was released on Nov.22, it was a double record, what the Beatles really needed was maybe 6 months of rest, not another new album and a movie of them doing it not even eight weeks after the release of the white album, and John didn’t have much material he felt pressured and was sick and tired of Paul’s bossy attitude,

[thBeatleJr]

Remember the Byrds reunion album in 1973?
I don’t either.
Glad the Beatles last recorded album Abbey Road was a classy way to go out.

[petejones]

Really.. I've got that book that came with the album so I must have bought an early edition

[jasonnstegall]

In a way, "full circle" could best sum up Let It Be -- between One After 909 representing their early period, Across The Universe being a nod (intended by John or not) to their psychedelic period, and both I Dig A Pony and The Long And Winding Road pointing toward what both John and Paul would be best known for in their solo work (as I Me Mine likewise would represent for George).

[joeblow]

John had no business bringing Yoko into their recording sessions.
No band should ever allow an interloper to ruin them.
