Out Now: The Beatles ‘Let It Be’ Special Edition, Featuring Tons of Bonus Material (Listen/Pick Up a Copy)

Today, a lavish Special Edition of Let It Be was released on multiple formats, timed to coincide with the highly anticipated new The Beatles: Get Back documentary from director Peter Jackson that will make its debut on Disney+ on Thanksgiving.

This is a seriously massive revisiting of the famed Beatles record, which came during an era fraught with tension and precipitated the group‘s dissolution.

Diving into some of the material packed into the Let It Be reissue, a new unboxing video was recently shared that gives a glimpse of the release’s depth:

The new Special Edition is filled with exciting material for Beatles completists and fans of the record:

The Let It Be album has been newly mixed by producer Giles Martin and engineer Sam Okell in stereo, 5.1 surround DTS, and Dolby Atmos. The album’s sweeping new Special Edition follows the universally acclaimed remixed and expanded anniversary editions of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (2017), The BEATLES (‘White Album’) (2018), and Abbey Road (2019). All the new Let It Be releases feature the new stereo mix of the album as guided by the original “reproduced for disc” version by Phil Spector and sourced directly from the original session and rooftop performance eight-track tapes. The physical and digital Super Deluxe collections also feature 27 previously unreleased session recordings, a four-track Let It Be EP, and the never before released 14-track Get Back stereo LP mix compiled by engineer Glyn Johns in May 1969.

It’s a remarkably deep companion piece to Jackson’s The Beatles: Get Back documentary series, which was previewed earlier this week with a detailed look at the film:
