The album will be issued together with a bonus fly-on-the-wall disc that features extracts from tapes of the legendary band during the making of the 'Let It Be' album and movie in the late '60s. There will also be a booklet that features historic photography of the recording sessions and extracts of band dialogue from the original booklet that first accompanied early copies of the 1970 album.

Basically pretty useless, and a waste of a disc.
For the casual fan, these things aren't overly interesting, and for the hardcore fan, it's NOTHING worth noting.
They could have put some alternate takes, the 8 minute Dig It, early Abbey Road track demos, All Things Must Pass, the awesome early Two of US takes... but no. That would be too smart and useful.
It's kind of fun to listen to but it's more a novelty than anything of actual substance. Extremely disapointing.

yeah, it was pretty disappointing. people are quite cynical about it though, thinking its mcartneys "shrewd" marketing move to make some extra dough, as though he doesn't have enough. i know beatles fans have wanted this for years, and the band wanted to do it, but its just not very satisfying in execution. i'd prefer they simply remastered and recut all the old albums instead.

Dead on. This isn't some soulless business venture, this was a genuine attempt to appease rabid fans. Good intentions, less than stellar results.
All the albums need the Yellow Submarine Songtrack sonic treatment... please, before I die!

so no video?? that's a total ripoff
is that let it be movie leaked onto the internet ? the one where you can literally watch thebreakup happen as it happened?
by the way ..the first disc does sound great.. they definately need to remix the rest of the catalogue.. you're right...
I'm asking for the anthology DVD set for my b-day/x-mas.. is this really good? I remember watching this when it was on but there is more there irght
they could make so much money by fully satiating the curiosity and the demands of the die-hard (and the casual, for that matter)
anyway, how about it? is that let it be movie online anywhere?

Yeah, Let it Be is pretty widely available, I got it on Soulseek a while back. And it is a GREAT movie. Alternately a lot of fun (they're hilarious in studio and the music is great) and really sad, in hindsight. It has a strange ambience to it that that you'll have to experience to understand. Odd movie, there's nothing comparable.
And the Anthology is absolutely vital to anybody that doesn't suck, it's brilliant. The extra material is worth it too. I actually don't have it... I've had the tapes for years but I don't have the money to burn on the DVDs.

Let It Be Naked was a golden oppurtunity to show what 'Get Back' should've been and they FUCKED it up.

It's huge, about 850MB... too big to fit on a CD-R, so when my harddrive crashed, I lost it before I could split it.
Jaroen- it DOES sound great, better quality... it's the arrangements that make it inferior, and the fact that it could have been MUCH better. It's still a great listen and the sound had a facelift.

I was surprised the album wasnt' simply a de-spectorized version of the original release.. this naked album is just a number of completely different takes altogether .. which is weird/defeats the purpose of the project to begin with, no?
which of these tracks and the tracks from the original album are from that rooftop concert?
