Back to basics Beatles on Let It Be
The Beatles 1970 album 'Let It Be' is to be released in a new basic format.
'Let It Be...Naked' strips the album down to basics, removing producer Phil Spector's orchestration, choirs and effects to return to what Paul McCartney describes as "the noise we made in the studio."
"This is the first time we've ever messed around with the original Beatle product," said Ringo Starr. "When I first heard it, it was really uplifting; it took you back again to the times when we were this band, the Beatle band."
'Let It Be...Naked's tracklisting differs from the 1970 release; background dialogue, 'Dig It' and 'Maggie Mae' have been taken off the album and 'Don't Let Me Down' has been added.
The album will feature a bonus fly-on-the-wall disc that features extracts from tapes of The Beatles at the time of first making the 'Let It Be' album and movie in the sixties.
