BEATLES - LET IT BE (CD)

The Beatles Let It Be On CD

Includes a Newly Produced Mini-Documentary QuickTime File on the Making of the Album!

Apple Corps Ltd. and EMI Music announce the digitally re-mastered individual CD releases of the original Beatles catalog which encompasses all 12 Beatles albums plus Magical Mystery Tour and Past Masters Vol. I & II.

The albums have been re-mastered by a dedicated team of engineers that includes Guy Massey, Steve Rooke, Sam Okell with Paul Hicks and Sean Magee at EMI’s Abbey Road Studios in London over a four year period utilizing state of the art recording technology alongside vintage studio equipment, carefully maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the original analogue recordings. The result of this painstaking process is the highest fidelity the catalog has seen since its original release.

Within each CD’s new packaging, booklets include detailed historical notes along with informative recording notes. With the exception of the Past Masters' set, newly produced mini-documentaries on the making of each album, directed by Bob Smeaton, are included as QuickTime files on each album. The documentaries contain archival footage, rare photographs and never-before-heard studio chat from The Beatles, offering a unique and very personal insight into the studio atmosphere.

The final Beatles album was first released in May of 1970, just prior to the launch of the film of the same name. The idea behind Let It Be had been to capture the group 'live in the studio' without overdubs or effects but this changed when producer, Phil Spector was brought in to re-produce the tracks. "The Long And Winding Road," which had been given a new musical arrangement featuring orchestra and choir became the group’s final # 1 single.
