The Beatles upcoming '' Let It Be '' Documentary Film .....

Hello Audiogoners  - I hope all is well and I am really looking forward to this documentary film but I can not find out what station it will be on or what date this is going to air on. I know that the '' Let It Be '' music will be re-issued on October 15th and I really hope that it is minus the Phil Spector influence as I personally prefer the '' Naked ' disc / music. Please let me know and thank you in advance...…..

IIRC, Alan Parsons should show up in the footage... somewhere. He was apparently the Studio's appointed, er, 'studio rat'.

Hello Audiogoners - yes I can't wait for this but still wondering why it took 50 years to release this footage ? I also need to be reminded that Abbey Road was done after Let it Be …...

What I'd like to know is why "Don't Let Me Down" , which IMHO is one of the better songs from those sessions, continues to be treated as non-essential, relegated to the second disc of the 2 disc set.  Reason enough for me to not buy it.

Hello Stuart ...nice to see around I hope all is well. Good point ...and it is one of my favorite John Lennon / Beatle songs. Why was it omitted ?

@garebear:

 

Thanks. 

I don't know-- perhaps it was Spector's choice?
