Is the guitar track for Don't Let Me Down available? Looks like they're mislabelled with two vocal downloads.

And the keyboards been noted with guitar...

The uploader seems to be scrambling the titles, oh well.

Let's take a break on bass talks (if anyone cares to listen to this), and talk about vocals.

All the vocals are performed well, the best lead singers being John and Paul. George works, and his vocals fit his songs. However, in "Don't Let Me Down", a song that was supposed to be done live in the studio, on the line, "I'm in love for the..." it sounds like John double-tracked. What gives?

Despite the concept of an album recorded live, this was not the case for many of the songs released from the Let It Be sessions. One After 909, Dig A Pony, Dig It and possibly Maggie Mae are the only tracks where I really cannot detect any overdubbing

And I've Got a Feeling was recorded on the rooftop. I don't think there was any overdubbing on that.

Those were all the ones recorded on the roof top, right? Any idea why the pulled the "All I want is you" after the intro riff on Dig A Pony?

What dissapoints me more, is that Paul's opening vocals and harmonies were not kept on "Across The Universe" as in the film version.

LAte to the party, but the isolated "Something" bass track let me hear things I haven't heard in 40+ years of listening == especially the little embelishment on the high not during the "you're asking me ..." part. And I guess this finally ends the argument over whether Paul tuned his E string down to D on the chorus. Thank you!

Wait, was that an argument? What have I missed??


I wish they had released the full version of the fast Two of Us featured in the Let It Be movie. I full demo of Octopuss's Garden on piano would have been nice, too. Maybe I'm strange, but I am actually a fan of Let It Be.

This thread is KILLER!! Thank you for posting these cool isolated tracks!!
