GRRRR!!! I HATE that they messed with the guitar solo!! Give me the ORIGINAL solo and leave this one out! It takes away from the feel of the song! sigh
This is the only version of "Let it Be" that should ever be played! Whenever the other one comes on, I'm yelling at my Sirius(they should know better) radio like an idiot! I wish they never made the other version!! I'll go back to work know.
This version of "Let it Be" is no good. Too much going on, and I heard Paul was very dissatisfied with all the addition that either George Martin/Phil Spector added. I like the version on Beatles 1 better
@lifestraight Have you listened to the Let it Be Naked album? I bought it couple of months ago and its brilliant. It original version of the song like the Long and Winding Road and not the jazzed up Phil Spector one that Paul hated so much.
A lot of people said he always was harsh with their stuff and his solo work. Said he never felt his stuff was good enough. Horrible outlook to have...
Orignally the Beatles' "Let It Be" ablum was titled "Get Back" esp. Paul was wanted the group returned back to their roots and early music..but, it changed as the ablum was recorded
Dont confuse this 'take' of let it be with the 'take' recorded the next day in the EMI -the single version has a different guitar part from harrison and is slicker anyway! Listening to these brilliant remasters it is clear that spector could have created a richer dynamic mix- he messed up that original mix big time! Thanks for posting!
Who cares about a phone sound being in a song. It just gives the song character. Let it Be is an amazing album regardless. It sounds really good here. Cannot wait to get the remasters.
I was kinda hoping the, what I like to call the "phone-button-beep" chord at 2:22 would've been fixed but it's still there. It's one tiny chord, which I believe was a mistake that sounds like a phone button tone, kinda like when you're talking to someone and they accidentally hit a button.
Ok but there are still some things that could've been fixed such as the hiss sound at the beginning of "Yes It Is", some kind of reverb/hissy-like sound at the beginning of "Don't Let Me Down", also John's "life of ease" and "all we need" in Yellow Submarine is still inaudible. The volume of John's voice could've been raised. I don't consider this remixing since bass and drums were raised. That goes for other bits of vocals that are still nearly inaudible.
I know the differences and acknowledged it in my previous post. I understand remasterering has caused drums and bass tobe louder, but it's also caused vocals to be louder as well. The dynamics were altered. I don't think making background vocals clearer would've been remixing. Removing hiss (part of the job) also isn't considered remixing. Those were parts of the remastering job. It's possible these hisses could not be removed. I just wonder how other artifacts could be removed and not those.
@MeanMrMustard1 Every time they re-mix a classic record, they bring some things up and leave other things down. It's a remaster according to the engineer's ears that is hired to do the job it would seem. The Who remasters back in the 90's really fucked with the original releases. On "had Enough", there are two horn parts. One is up front and one is in the back. Instead of fixing this, they reversed it and now the back is in the front and vice versa. WTF?!
Thats an open string on the guitar as he switched position... and you shouldnt complain about stupid things, especially if you dont know what youre talking about.

The producers said they wouldn't take out any recording features. Which is why there's still a 'CHORD. Fucking hell...' in Hey Jude.

That's because these aren't remixes. They're remasters. Two totally different things.
