Opis:
Let It Be - studyjny album The Beatles, trzynasty, ostatni w oficjalnej dyskografii grupy.

Pierwsze sesje nagraniowe miały miejsce w styczniu 1969 r., pod okiem producenta George'a Martina, jednak z powodu niezadowolenia muzyków z materiału, prace nad nim zostały odłożone o cały rok (w międzyczasie został wydany album Abbey Road), kiedy to produkcji podjął się Phil Spector. Pierwotnie album miał być zatytułowany Get Back, od docelowo wydanej wersji miał się też nieco różnić wyborem i kolejnością utworów. Zapisu I Me Mine dokonano 3-4 stycznia 1970. Było to ostatnie wspólne nagranie The Beatles, niestety już bez udziału Lennona. Finalna wersja albumu wydana została już po oficjalnym rozpadzie zespołu. W 2003 roku ukazał się surowy LP Let It Be... Naked pozbawiony produkcji Phila Spectora, bliższy wizji Paula McCartneya.

Pod tytułem Let It Be ukazał się także filmowy zapis sesji nagraniowych.

Description:
The only Beatles album to occasion negative, even hostile reviews, there are few other rock records as controversial as Let It Be. First off, several facts need to be explained: although released in May 1970, this was not their final album, but largely recorded in early 1969, way before Abbey Road. Phil Spector was enlisted in early 1970 to do some post-production mixing and overdubs, but he did not work with the band as a unit. And, although his use of strings has generated much criticism, by and large he left the original performances to stand as is: only "The Long and Winding Road" and (to a lesser degree) "Across the Universe" and "I Me Mine" get the Wall of Sound treatment. The main problem was that the material wasn't uniformly strong, and that the Beatles themselves were in fairly lousy moods due to intergroup tension. All that said, the album is on the whole underrated, even discounting the fact that a substandard Beatles record is better than almost any other group's best work. McCartney in particular offers several gems: the gospel-ish "Let It Be," which has some of his best lyrics; "Get Back," one of his hardest rockers; and the melodic "The Long and Winding Road," ruined by Spector's heavy-handed overdubs. The folky "Two of Us," with John and Paul harmonizing together, was also a highlight. Most of the rest of the material, by contrast, was going through the motions to some degree, although there are some good moments of straight hard rock in "I've Got a Feeling" and "Dig a Pony." As flawed and bumpy as it is, it's an album well worth having, as when the Beatles were in top form here, they were as good as ever. [In November 2003, the Beatles released an alternate version of Let It Be called Let It Be... Naked, which mixed out Spector's contributions and deleted snippets of conversation scattered throughout the album. "Dig It" and "Maggie Mae" were cut from the record in favor of "Don't Let Me Down," which was placed in the middle of an album that now had a considerably different sequencing than the originally released version of Let It Be.]
