There's some very good songs in that one ... Across the Universe is actually my favorite Beatles track.

But for the album in itself, as a whole: well i just get annoyed with the really bad recordings of some great tunes ... [Across the universe is all messed up - Let it be got this disco feeling at the end - Old brown shoe, that wasn't on the album but was released as a single during these recording sessions, had the voice of Harrison inaudible - and there's these dialogues between the songs that no one can understand the reason of their existence]

It's been a while that i've been listening to the Let it Be tracks released later in the album Let it be ... Naked or in the Beatles Anthology series.

That's just nonsense. I have four of their albums, and in none of them, including Abbey Road, do they put as much energy into the more upbeat songs, ex: One After 909, or as much feeling into the slower songs, ex: Across The Universe, The Long And Winding Road.

Across The Universe, The Long And Winding Road are two of favorite Beatles songs, it doesn't get much better then those two songs.

One after 909 is a song they start to write earlier in their career and put it on the back burner for years imo The Beatles had came full circle, when they recorded that song.

^ It's funny that One after 909 was composed by John in 1963, but they've waited until Let it be to record it ... I wonder how many demos never got the chance to be officially recorded.

It was even earlier than that...

Wow, I was the only one (so far) to vote Let It Be as my favorite. There is not a bad album (imo), I don't really care for the early (pre-Rubber Soul) stuff though. Looking foward to the remasters. I have read some early reviews, and they seem to have done a good job with these. I will be buying the individual c.d.s of the albums I like, on 9/9!

Thanks for the info.
Didn't expect it to be written in 1960, i thought it was written the year it was first recorded.

I love The Beatles early stuff, I would loved to hear stuff before they did before they met Brian Epstein, what they during The Cavern and Hamburg days. I bet they were electrifying; they were tight as a band from all the gigs they did.

^Get The Beatles Anthology I, there's some tracks from when they were still The Quarrymen.
