The Beatles' farewell documentary Let It Be is getting an encore, and a reinvent

[Jung Roe]

Last week on the CBC national news they had a short report on the 50 year anniversary of that famous rooftop concert the Beatles did to promote the Let It Be album.  There was a gathering of fans in front of the studio in London to commemorate that event.  Its remarkable, the undying cultural legacy the Beatles left.  That documentary will be high on my list to watch.  Let it Be is one of my all time fave Beatles song.  The inspiration behind how Paul MCartney wrote that song after a dream is touching.  I can post a youtube link if anyone is interested.

I’ve probably already seen it but wouldn’t mind watching it again and I’m sure MLT won’t mind you posting the link. I’d imagine they’d be interested themselves too. They did that brilliant cover of “The Two of Us” from the Let It Be album and included that awesome video chronicling their life. Like all the Beatles albums, this one has some excellent songs, including one of my favourites “Across the Universe” (now how I’d love the twins to have a go at that one), “Get Back” and “The Long and Winding Road”.

Hi Howard, here is the recent interview from last year with Paul McCartney.  Fast forward it to the 18:15 minutes mark where he talks about “Let it Be”.  Has a special relevance for me.

The whole interview is actually worth a listen where the song writing master himself talk about each of his iconic songs describing his creative process for writing them.   I like seeing his dog roaming around the living room while Paul does his interview.  You can see he is an animal lover.

Yes… I’ve too for a long time  been wondering that MLT would do Awesome on Long Winding Road… Get Back… Paper Back Writer… Etc… Good song choices there Howard ..

Perhaps I’ll get around to seeing this documentary  you speak of….
