Let it Be- The Beatles

It's amazing that even though The Beatles were practically already broken up, and they really weren't getting along during time in the studio, that they could still create a masterpiece like Let It Be. The Lennon/McCartney songwriting duo was done, so everyone was writing their own songs, and everybody wanted their songs to be the album. It takes a band as great as The Beatles to record such a great album, even though they weren't really The Beatles anymore. Let It Be was a bluesy getaway for The Fab Four. Their previous albums were experimental tinged rock and psychadelic sounding, so the band needed to resort back to what they started with. Songs like "Two of Us" and "One After 909" reflect the early days of The Beatles (for the record, "One After 909" was written by Lennon and McCartney in 1962, this album was relased in 1970.) But tracks like "Get Back" "Dig A Pony" and "The Long and Winding Road" still show the taste of Abbey Road (the album before Let It Be). Let It Be was a tragic end to The Beatles, but it left us with a truly great album.
