The Beatles, Let It Be,Vinyl FREE SHIPPING
The 12th album, and sadly the last, by one of the greatest rock bands in history, this record had more than just a musical impact on the world.
By late 1968, over two years after the Beatles had taken a hiatus from touring, Paul McCartney was eager for the band to perform live again. The sessions for the White Album had seen a number of horrendous arguments between band members and majorly strained relationships between the members and other personnel. McCartney felt that the band's cohesiveness had been lost through years without playing live, and from using the studio not to record ensemble performances, but to make increasingly complex recordings made up of parts played individually by each Beatle as overdubs rather than as a group.
McCartney believed that the best way to improve band relations and revive enthusiasm was to get the group back into rehearsal as quickly as possible (the White Album sessions having concluded in October 1968) and begin work on a new album that made little or no use of studio artifice or multiple overdubbing. This would allow the group to return to their roots by playing as a true ensemble, recording some or all of the new album during a one-off live concert or full concert tour. This idea mirrored the "back to basics" attitude of a number of rock musicians at this time in reaction against the psychedelic and progressive music dominant in the previous two years. The concert itself would be filmed for broadcast on worldwide television, with the album released to coincide with it.
This record is used, with some wear on the cover, but the vinyl is scratch-free and plays beautifully, and the inside photography is a nice addition to the package.
