Beatles Get Back documentary

@bdp24 - I love the Beatles but I have the same reaction to the 'Let It Be' album, and I do not have it in my Beatles collection.

I know a lot of people love it, and I'm glad they do, but I could live easily without hearing anything from it again, even though I think 'Across the Universe' and 'I've Got A Feeling' are pretty decent.

Is it a coincidence that this is the album that George Martin wasn't involved with? 

There was a great review of it in the San Francisco Chronicle this morning; I'll take that one with a bit of a grain of salt, as the reviewer considers 'Long and Winding Road' a 'masterpiece', while I regard it as maudlin schlock I'd be happy to never hear again. Paul's got a whole lot of masterpieces, but this one, not so much, at least for me.... 

@cd318 - Didn't Phil Spector have something to do with this? 

@cd318 - thanks for that detailed explanation! All this time I  thought it was always Phil Spector, except for that 'Naked Let It Be'....

I just know I bought it when it came out, put it on, and went "EH?". It seemed like a whole album's worth of songs as good as 'Octopus' Garden' and 'Maxwell's Silver Hammer'. 

This did not sound at all like the band that recorded the White Album, MMT, Sgt Pepper, A Hard Day's Night, etc etc with all those awesome songs, and I initially blamed it on Phil Spector. He deserved blame, for sure, but apparently so did a lot of other folks.

And lots of folks don't think 'blame' should even be involved, because they like the record! It's all good....
