Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Sloppy in conception, and even sometimes in the playing, Let It Be often gets a bad rap. Unfairly, as it's often as charming, well written, and (oh yeah) rocking as the Beatles' 'better' albums; it's also more outright fun than Abbey Road, the masterpiece it followed into the stores. With Lennon and McCartney working together on the perfect 'I've Got a Feeling,' 'Two of Us,' and 'Dig a Pony,' it's hard to believe these guys were about to implode. --Rickey Wright

Rating: - we all wanted more...
This was the last Beatles album that you could buy if you bought them all sequentially. This was the first Beatles album that I bought as it was released because I was 11 years old at the time. I love them all and I love The Beatles more than any other musicians and this is still my favorite from them. Sure, they revolutionized what could be done in a studio, but this is essentially a "Live" album by the greatest rock and roll band there ever was. They had already announced their breakup by the time ... Read More
Rating: - Wonderful and Not Over-played
Easily the most disregarded album amongst the Beatles' body of work, Let it Be contains some of the bands best tracks, even if they were basically solo efforts. Although it was recorded prior to Abbey Road, Let it Be sat shelved for about a year before it finally saw the light of day. The story goes that Paul and John were belligerent with each other during the making of this album but that didn't seem to effect the quality of music that they were able to contribute together. "Across the Universe" ... Read More
Rating: - Some Really Great Songs
I'm not sure why so many people consider this to be The Beatles' one sub-par album. Can I point out how great the songs "Across The Universe," "Get Back," "I Me Mine," "Dig A Pony," and "Let It Be" are? "I Me Mine" is probably my favorite of Harrison's songs, melodic and angst-y and full of meaning. "Across The Universe" is one of Lennon's best (I think "A Day In The Life" is the only one I like better). Also, "Two Of Us" is pretty good, and "The Long And Winding Road" is a major hit (though not one of ... Read More
Rating: - A fine Beatles album
Many reviews go over the context of this album, with the band beginning to come apart at the seams, the production work of Phil Spector, and so on. Since that has been dealt with at considerable length, I'll just focus on my responses to the music.
The start of this is so quirky! I always enjoyed it. If I have it right:
"'I dig a pygmy,'
By Charles Hawtrey and the DefAids.
Part 1,
In which Doris gets her oats."
I haven't the faintest clue what it ... Read More
Rating: - What else can be said....?
Okay, let's face it this is The Beatles last studio recording and it still holds up today!
The truth about this group is that for those who actually saw them or even heard them during their short but triumphant time in the music biz there has never been a group that can hold a candle to them, they changed the music industry and the sound of modern day music for the best!
While music that is being produced today (some) is very inventive it is still eons behind The Beatles contributions.
