What song is an alternative mix of the Beatles' 1970 album "Let It Be" released in 2003, which replaced the 39-second "Maggie Mae" with " Let Me Down"?
Let It Be... Naked Let It Be... Naked is an alternative mix of the Beatles' 1970 album "Let It Be", released in 2003. The project was initiated by Paul McCartney, who felt that the original album's producer, Phil Spector, did not capture the group's stripped-down, back-to-their-roots intentions for the album. "Naked" consists largely of newly mixed versions of the "Let It Be" tracks while omitting most of Spector's embellishments and the incidental studio chatter featured between most cuts of the original album. "Naked" also omits two minor tracks, "Dig It" and "Maggie Mae", replacing them with "Don't Let Me Down", originally featured only as the B-side of the "Get Back" single.
Meet the Beatles! Meet the Beatles! is the second Beatles album released in the United States. It was the first US Beatles album to be issued by Capitol Records, on 20 January 1964 in both mono and stereo formats. It topped the popular album chart on 15 February 1964 and remained at number one for eleven weeks before being replaced by "The Beatles' Second Album". The cover featured Robert Freeman's portrait used in the United Kingdom for "With the Beatles", with a blue tint added to the original stark black-and-white photograph.
