Yes, Sgt Pepper was one of the first pop albums I remember from my early years - and even then, the Beatles were seen as the single greatest and most influential band in pop/rock music.
Me too, they are the soundtrack to my life. It makes me laugh every time a new pop act is touted as being as big as The Beatles, as if a fleeting popularity or record sales were all that is important. The Beatles are matchless in their impact on the world and the first in so many aspects that still continue to reverberate throughout modern culture. Generation after generation discovering their magic anew. Truly how many of today's artists could leave behind such a rich diverse legacy of music that can last decades and touch so many souls? When the high calibre generation of performers that saw the birth, and now the sad decline of popular music, finally leave us for the great gig in the sky, at least their music and their messages will live on.
@@MrDiddyDee My thoughts exactly. I had my transistor radio with me everywhere possible as they seemingly released something new daily. Glad I grew up in such a very different time and place. How lucky were we? Blessings all.
Paul had a dream about his mother for those of you that don't know. It was during the time of crisis when the Beatles were breaking up or having a lot of problems at this time. His mother said Let It Be. Paul woke up and wrote the song. I think it means a lot to all of us
"And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me. Shine on til tomorrow. Let it be" - This is the line that gets me every time. It is basically a humanist hymn
True, they weren't the happiest bunch of fellows at the time but this video also shows how when it's time to record a song, they get it together and get down to business.
In my opinion, one of their best songs. Written by Paul in the midst of the Beatles' breakup. It is about a dream that he had in the midst of those troubled times. Paul's mother, Mary, came to him in a dream and told him to let it be. There was still a light that shone on him.
When us fans heard "Let It Be" and "The Long and Winding Road" we knew that it was actually over...The Beatles had broken up...and they were saying "Good-Bye" to us. The worst part was we weren't ready to say "Good-Bye" to them.... And now we had to grow up.
No one comes close to the Beatles ...nobody. they were a culture pop phenomenon. The magnitude of their influence is just unbelievable. I think they came at the right time. Timing was everything
John was playing bass notes (on his guitar) on this track. The intention was to play it live and with Paul on piano someone had to play bass. I love this song.
@@L33Reacts Wait for the flak on THAT one because no matter what version you play someone will prefer the other one 😄 Maybe the answer is to play both - the live cut with no overdubs, then the Spectorised version. Could trigger 'lively' debate.
I hope you will love both versions. Most of us grew up with the beautifully orchestrated version, so we love it. It is another beautiful Paul composition, though.
Paul had a dream in which his mother Mary, who died when Paul was 14, came to him in a dream when Paul was so sad about the Beatles impending and painful breakup. This song and video were recorded in late January 1969, the day after the Rooftop Concert.
@@tracyyork1428 actually it’s tuned just like a 6 string guitar, only one octave lower. So you actually play it like a fat stringed guitar with regular guitar chords. Sometimes when Paul played piano like hey Jude or Let it Be, John or George would play the 6 string bass. So it plays more intricate notes than a 4 string but is easier to play for guitarists. Both George and John play 4 string bass on a couple other songs. 🙂
When Let It Be came out, I was just turning 13 and my dad had orders for Vietnam. I had been starting to really get into The Beatles. I didn't realize until later in the year that they had broken up. Let It Be really helped me through that year with my dad gone and all through my teens. It has a very special meaning for me. My mom died last November and we are burying her ashes next week on what would have been her 90th birthday. Hearing this song again, I started to cry. I guess I am needing this song again!
I loved the Beatles as a little kid since my earliest memories and they broke up when I was in grade school and it was so sad, the whole world was shocked. And then I was in high school and John Lennon got assassinated. Dang. This song was on the radio all the time along with of course a whole bunch of other Beatles songs, and I've always felt such a sense of Peace coming from this song and then it's great when it kind of rocks out at the end. Definitely the music of my childhood.
I'm sure many Beatles fans will know this but Let it Be wasn't their final album, that was Abbey Road. Let it Be was released after the split but the film is often interpreted as reflecting their imminent break up, but that wasn't what they were thinking at that stage, even if they weren't entirely happy.
The Get Back film really shows that Paul McCartney was on fire as a songwriter during this period.... classic tunes were pouring out of him... except maybe for Maxwell's Silver Hammer lol!
The intention of the Get Back sessions were to show them writing songs that they could perform live record the album, and then perform somewhere the rooftop was the last we got
Beautiful #1 record written by Paul McCartney ❤ Paul said his mother Mary came to him in a dream during a difficult time for him and she was telling him - everything will be alright, just Let it Be.
Watching the video part I didn't think that they were mad at each other but more like they knew it was over and time to move on. Like when a company I worked at 25 years ago decided to close their Bay Area office, some of us stayed until the end, cleaned out our desks/lockers, put aside any issues or problems we may have had, shared some old times, had a few laughs and eventually got in our cars and drove away. Beautiful song though. 🙂
Absolutely as I thought the same till years later stumbling over that it was inspired by his Mom Mary in a dream...gave the song a whole new meaning for me more human than spiritual ❤
Recording this song with the Beatles inspired Billy Preston to write “That’s the Way God Planned It” which he played a spectacular version of at George’s historic Concert for Bangladesh.
"Let It Be" is quintessential McCartney. John was playing bass, but on a six-string. Yes, that was the Specter version. Next up, "The Long and Winding Road" (same album).
Beatles were the Fab Four. Billy Preston brought depth to every track he played on. I believe I read Lennon said the Beatles should ask Preston to join the band. Would have been interesting.
Lee, I really enjoy your reviews and the way that you've allowed the listeners of this channel to have a peak in your personal history, including your life's rough patches. I've had some challenges myself, and it takes courage to discuss sensitive areas before total strangers like me. And, because you've grown to love The Beatles in such a brief period of time, I was honestly a little surprised by some of your comments, given how well documented every phase of their recording career. But, in retrospect, your comments served as a way to remind me that, wheres I am an old "Boomer", you are a young dude who is part of "Generation Z" (I hope that I have the correct letter). Here is some of what I'm referring to: * For people like me, "Let It Be" is as universally familiar as, let's say, "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town". So when you said that you hadn't heard it all the way through before, it took me aback. But I suppose that it really shouldn't have. * Although the "Let It Be" film and album were the last things that The Beatles released, "Abbey Road" was the least album to be recorded. The "Let It Be/Get Back" album, film, and documentary were all originally recorded and filmed throughout the month of January 1969, just a couple of months after the expansive "White Album" was released. No wonder they were tired and cranky! The reason "Let It Be" took so long to be released had to do with the massive number of songs, takes, and MANY hours of footage that had to be listened to, catalogued, edited, mixed, and approved to everyone's satisfaction. Well, that last criteria was never satisfied while they were together, as evidenced by "Let It Be...Naked", which was released DECADES after it was recorded. I hope that this helps to clarify this strained but very productive period in The Beatles brief but extensive and unprecedented body of work over an approximately seven year period of time.
This is the first time I've actually seen John play the Fender 6-string bass. He has a different demeanor on bass than when he's playing regular guitar. Interestingly, Paul was credited for bass on this song, but the Beatles Bible corroborates that it was John on bass at the final session on January 31, 1969, which I think is the session that this clip was taken from.
Yes, they used the Phil Spector audio. It would have been better if they had used the audio from the movie. Also, FYI, Abbey Road was their final album. Let It Be was recorded then shelved for a year, in the meantime, they recorded Abbey Road. Then John gave the Let It Be tapes to Phil Spector, and he did his thing, then it was released.
Looking at a Beatles performance like this, the words "consummate professionals" comes to mind. Even as they experience turmoil in their personal lives, with crazy pressures, substance problems and breakups, they'd go into the office (their studio) and produce the greatest work product of all time.
Yep, "rooftop" Paul; these sessions occurred from January 2 - 30 1969 (the rooftop concert was recorded/filmed the last day, IIRC). This version of the song is on the Let It Be album. Another version, with a much tamer guitar solo, was released as a single.
In the Get Back Documentary, they didn’t look so unhappy. Paul's mother, Mary McCartney, died of breast cancer when Paul was 14. He said when he was having a hard time dealing with the stress from their impending breakup, his mother came to him in a dream. He's also said that if people want to think it’s Mother Mary, he's ok with that too. Sadly, his wife, Linda, died of breast after cancer 29 years of marriage.
It is hard to describe the impact of the Beatles for someone like me, who was a teenager following their career in the 60s. Yes, I listened to lots of other bands, but the Beatles were like gods to me and my friends. Every new song and album was played to death. It was suddenly cool to have long hair and the fact that the older generation didn't understand the whole thing made it even better. After the first few albums, they kept changing, getting batter, and way ahead of everyone else - creating new sounds and redefining what a rock band was. Let's also remember that before the Beatles, very few musical acts wrote their own material. The Beatles changed that so completely that it suddenly became almost obligatory for bands to write at least some of their own material.
Let it be always makes me cry. George is solo. It’s just perfect and soulful and Billy‘s piano is the same. I feel the same way the other poster Dan. I’m so glad I grew up with a Beatles as my backdrop they still are and always will be the best band ever.
Most of this was filmed on 31Jan 1969, the day after the Rooftop Concert. They also recorded that day The Long And Winding Road. This was also the last official Get Back / Let It Be session. Next week they would be working on I Want You (She's So Heavy) not yet thinking it was for a different album. Glyn Johns did a basic mix of what they had from Jan 22-28 (give or take) and this was later bootlegged as the original Get Back album which it never was.
I am happy that I own a bootleg copy of the Get Back sessions. I'm not sure if my copy is an original or a copy. Back in the 60's and 70's it was fairly easy to find bootlegs of many bands. Mostly live performances. Thankfully I was wise enough to pick up a dozen or so of different band and artists, Beatles. Stones, Kinks, Joan Baez , Joni 12:40 Mitchell and Dylan among them.
The Mythical Beatles at work. No one can bring time after time the magic the Beatles make over and over and over. All their songs sound different. They make me want to make music and give up music at the same time. Listen to Flamin Pie by Paul Mccartney... a great album
In an episode of "Carpool Karaoke" with James Cordon, he and Paul drive around Liverpool as Paul explains his inspiration for some of their hits. A really fun watch. It's on TH-cam.
The song that McCartney objected to the arrangement was their LAST number 1 Song as a group. “The Long and Winding Road.” Paul thought Phil Spector overdid the arrangement with Strings etc.
That's the album version. I like it (as opposed to the single version, which has different treatment to the guitar). :) John was playing bass on the Fender VI.
Paul hated what Specter did to his song. He intended it to be a simple ballad with simple harmonies but John bought Specter in and he threw the kitchen sink at it
All things considered, it was good to grow up and now grow old with The Beatles as my soundtrack.
Yes, Sgt Pepper was one of the first pop albums I remember from my early years - and even then, the Beatles were seen as the single greatest and most influential band in pop/rock music.
Yes ❤
Same here.👍🎶🎶

It's written about Paul's Mum, Mary, as inspired by her from a dream!❤ #LetItBe
* Paul's Mum.
@@brigidsingleton1596 I stand corrected lol Yes 💯❤️
If this song doesn't bring a tear to your eye. One of Paul's most heartfelt compositions.

It lead me to search and find substitute bands, like Deep Purple, Black sabbath, Jethro Tull. etc to try and cover all the Beatle's genres!
Amen...
Well said.
This brings me peace when I am extremely overwrought
The Beatles are incredible, this music is recognized anywhere on the planet, I doubt there is another rock band with such reach.
*Queen ?
@@brigidsingleton1596 Not even close.

Truly a band like no other - so effortless.
Everybody’s a gangster until they hear Let It Be….then come the chills and tears….

One of Paul’s masterpieces.
A famous Beatles song ... so well done
Love they showed the great Billy Preston and I love George's Guitar solo!
I saw him in Vancouver with the Ringo Starr All Stars Band.
"The Long and Winding Road"
I’m actually doing that one next week for a request! Good call!
@@L33Reacts Thanks! Looking forward to it.
@@L33Reacts That song is famous for the strings being added after the song was cut. Apparently Paul was none too happy about it. 😳

That's John on 6-string bass (George played it for Hey Jude).
The LET IT BE album took the Beatles to the next level. Amazing days. Peace out L33.
John was playing the Fender 6 string bass on this one. I have one like it.

The Get Back film really shows that Paul McCartney was on fire as a songwriter during this period.... classic tunes were pouring out of him... except maybe for Maxwell's Silver Hammer lol!
To be fair, maxwells silver hammer was a white album era song that didn't make the cut
well done, Lee. Simply, well done.

Beautiful #1 record written by Paul McCartney ❤ Paul said his mother Mary came to him in a dream during a difficult time for him and she was telling him - everything will be alright, just Let it Be.
Much better than the single version. This was the version that appeared on the album.
Whisper words of wisdom❤

Beautiful song though. 🙂
With all of the dissension in the world going on right now this music is a huge relief and and a soft place to fall. Thanks for playing.
This was Paul's hymn of sorts. Catholics heard Mary as mother of Giod. But Paul was thinking of his mom.
Absolutely as I thought the same till years later stumbling over that it was inspired by his Mom Mary in a dream...gave the song a whole new meaning for me more human than spiritual ❤
I always find it interesting that when Joh. Or George play bass, they both use that Fender VI instead of a traditional bass.
You got that so right Lee. Epic reaction. ❤😊
Ringo's Tom-Tom fills during the Bridge after George's solo are fantastic!
John was playing bass on that one. He was using a Fender 6 string electric bass guitar.
Thanks Scott, never enough Beatles.
Absolutely ❤
As many times as I have heard this song, it still gives me goosebumps! This is my favorite George solo, too❤
