LET IT BE
Let It Be is the twelfth and final studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. It was released on 8 May 1970, almost a month after the group's break-up. Like most of the band's previous releases, it was a number one album in many countries, including both the US and the UK, and was released in tandem with the motion picture of the same name. -wikipedia
Critic Reviews
Show All-
Pitchfork
2009 - After the discord of The Beatles, the group sought to get back to basics with a rock LP and a film about its creation. This was the eventual result.
-
Rolling Stone
Musically, boys, you passed the audition.
-
Consequence of Sound
2009 - Let It Be is still a good album at the end of the day, just not the album it was supposed to be.
-
Classic Rock Review
2015 - it is a quality addition to the band’s portfolio
-
Neon Modern Times
This is their weakest and least enjoyable record to listen to, but then again it is a Beatles release so there is still plenty of great things here.
-
All Music
As flawed and bumpy as it is, it's an album well worth having, as when the Beatles were in top form here, they were as good as ever.
-
PPCORN
Witty banter is interjected from all members in between takes, which further gives the record a relaxed feel. While it was rereleased in 2007, minus all of the studio trickery, longtime fans had grown found of the original.
-
The Telegraph
2018 - The discomfort between the members of the Beatles is all too apparent in Let It Be.
-
BBC
2003 - This new slant on the events is at least a small recompense for all that bad feeling.
-
AV Music
2003 - Let It Be includes some of The Beatles' best songs, but in any form, it will never sound like the band's best album
-
Elsewhere
2008 - a flawed album and no masterpiece
-
Album Apart
The band’s final studio album is a project that transformed into a patchwork of mainly live performances with added production and some dramatic flair.
