The biggest omission is the entire rooftop concert. Hopefully it comes in another addition.before Christmas...the original let it Be the concert was edited. The full version shown in Get Back is the full 40 minutes
They properly left it out for the get back disney plus series but im not sure
Nice! I went for the CD edition first, but will most certainly pick this edition up as well at some point!
Ordered mine today, can't wait
So glad I watched this first before deciding to get this set. Got one now. I prefer the Outtakes as a double album rather than two separate sleeves. Reminds me of the White Album a little.
Well done as always Paul. I rate “Let it Be” higher than most everybody else. I think the live feel works better than the more grandiose “Abbey Road.” I even like “Teddy Boy” !!!
I was waiting for this one^🤣
Regarding this new version of the Get Back album, I have read that for the song "For You Blue"
they made a composite version by combining the Glyn Johns mix from 1969 (first 14 seconds)
with the mix from 1970.
Why they did that ?
They decided to use Glyn Johns later second mix attempt from early 1970 but still included the false start from the previous mix. I assume his second attempt at For You Blue was an improvement. Do note that Glyn made two compilation attempts at the Get Back album. Across the Universe and I Me Mine had to be included by early 1970 as they were featured in the print of the film, so this necessitated Glyn to make changes to several mixes and the track selection.
Considering buying this vinyl box set now. Not much point buying the CD version as I haven't got Blu-ray.
Wish they would reissue the Abbey Road vinyl box set with the book!
As usual Paul, a good and well informed review of the Vinyl Super Deluxe version of the newly remixed Let It Be plus extras. I've always liked the original album; the version of "Across The Universe" that appears here is excellent - in my opinion Spector was right to slow the song down compared to the WWF version. I was hoping that they might have added "Two Of Us" (electric take) and "Get Back" (punk/rock take) from the Twickenham sessions as genuine alternate versions to the ones recorded later at the Apple Studio (I'm aware they were not properly recording tracks at Twickenham, nevertheless there were several takes of these 2 songs recorded on the Nagra tapes and these could have been issued on the so called Disc 5 EP). Still, a minor gripe.
After listening to the Glynn johns mix last night, no way could the beatles release that. Missed chords, breakdowns in music, out of tune in places , false starts, it was more like demo stuff or run through of songs in places. I get that it was supposed to have a live feel. But spector got the balance absolutely right. Glyn johns stuff is interesting no doubt. But just to rough and ready, likely the wrong takes chosen. The stand out were don't let me down, let it be and across the universe.
totally agree, it was a very interesting listed and I'm glad to have it in my collection now, but you can see why it was passed on.
Lennon said, "Phil wanted to work with us forever and we gave him the biggest piece of rubbish and he made something out of it." Rolling Stone said, that when people hear
the Glyn Johns mix they will have a different opinion on the Spector version. Let's not forget that Spector did 'Instant Karma," "Happy Xmas, " the Plastic Ono Band album, and the "Imagine" album, too.
@@timheine5816 you missed all things must pass! But totally agree I have sent the vinyl boxset back and will keep the sde and buy the single album remix
@@MarcusMaximus909 I didn't miss it because all Harrison did his whole life was bitch about it. Spector gave him the biggest album of his career and he threw him under the bus. It was Harrison's album. If he didn't like it, which he says he didn't after the first take, then he should have gotten a different producer. Lennon didn't give Spector free
rein. Geez, Phil's trademark was the "Wall of Sound," it wasn't as if Harrison didn't know that. McCartney bitches about Let It Be and Spector but gladly walks up and has John Wayne
give him the Grammy for it. You can't have it both ways.
hi i think they should have dumped half the tracks or made the price cheaper ..i myself will stick to my 1970 version
Anybody else have distortion on Get Back and Let It Be on the Let It Be 2021 Vinyl? Left channel?
I've a reasonably sized CD collection. And I'm interested in vastly expanding my somewhat pitiful LP collection, too. And eventually buying a decent record player, again, to play them all on. I also used to have "Rubber Soul", "Revolver", "Sgt. Pepper, "Abbey Road" & "Let It Be", on LP. (All bought in late, 1980. But all have sadly disappeared from my LP collection, over the years). I'm interested in rebuying them all again on LP. Where do I start? Are all these recent reissues, as good or better than the ones I purchased all those years ago, I wonder? Or is it worth me trying to buy online & replace the ones I had orginally, if that's possible?
The Beatles Mono vinyl box set is the way to go. They are VERY expensive, but are the gold standard for Beatles's recording.
It's a pity they didn't put the CD box set in an LP size box/slipcase, then we could have got the LP size book as in the vinyl set,they went to all the expense of printing the book in 2 sizes, and releaseing the Abbey Road vinyl set without the book was a big mistake I think.
Certainly surprising that there's two different books
Made up to have this box set..Let It Be is better than than Beatles For Sale,With The Beatles,Please Please Me,Yellow Submarine in my opinion..it's got some of the finest tracks the Beatles ever written.
To each his own, but for me, the best is "Abbey Road" that famous Beatles Medley on Side2, followed by White Album, followed by St Peppers, Magical Mystery Tour & lastly A Hard Days Night. 😀
I think Abbey Road is my favourite,or Sgt Pepper
@@ravenbonanza1522 white album is the worst for me together with yellow submarine and magical mystery tour 😂👍
"Across the Universe" is MUCH BETTER than 1970 mix because of correct tape speed, not that slowed down Spector bullshit.
The new Let It Be album has the same speed and running time 3:48 as the 1970 release. Are you referring to the Glyn John's mix?
@@timheine5816 Think they're referring to the Naked version.
Thanks Paul, do we know if the records are half speed vinyl? How do they sound?
They aren't half-speed. They sound great to me, although the source material is what it is.
@@sdedition Says half speed mastered on cover. Is that different from "half speed vinyl"?
@@timheine5816 they are half speed vinyl ..it actually says it on the vinyl itself I've found out, around the rim of the label! Either way sounds great..the remaster/remix itself is brilliant of the main album.
McCartney being uber-magnanimous in the foreword. 😂
As ever.
didn't Sam Okell also remix this , or am I mistaken ?
Yes, him and Giles are a team
4 LP's and 1 EP in the box set.
Correct
Why is this more expensive than every other comparable release?
The original Let it Be box set had no type on the front cover.
Anybody else gutted Let It Be Naked isn’t here?
No.
These record companies like taking money off the poor public why didn't this box set come out when the album first got released
...Because they hadn't thought about that in 1970?
just a cash in on a poor beatle album by the record company 1 version is enough
Teddy Boy is awful.
Not Macca's best...
@@sdedition Definitely his worst.
I don’t blame John for not wanting to play it.
I’ll take Teddy Boy over Maxwells Silver Hammer and even Oh Darling any day. Paul’s weak side 1 of Abbey Road is what brings it down a big in my fab LP rankings.
@@ronster58 I agree that Maxwells Silver Hammer let’s down Side 1 of Abbey Road and I can’t stand that one either. Paul had a great knack for writing some amazing songs but his Klunkers really were bad.
Useless box-set.
Useless comment.
@@vishkavishovski300 this box Is full of useless and awful demos and rubbish and it's SO EXPENSIVE. Just buy the normal vinyl as I did.
