“Let It Be” (Massey): another recording from January 31, 1969, the  
day after rooftop, with McCartney on piano, Lennon on Fender Bass VI, 
Harrison on lead guitar (through a Leslie), Starr on drums and 
Preston on organ. Three months later in April, Martin added a new 
electric guitar lead from Harrison, and in January 1970, added 
backing vocals from McCartney and Harrison, brass and cellos and yet 
another pass at a Harrison lead. Martin produced the single release 
of the song, issued in March 1970 (pre-Spector), featuring the April 
1969 guitar solo. Upon Spector's arrival, the song was lengthened by 
repeating a chorus and issued featuring the January 1970 guitar lead.

The new version features the same master and uses a few edits from 
other takes, most notably the Harrison guitar solo that came from the 
take of the song that appears in the film. “We'd always thought that 
the guitar lead in the version in the film was just really soaring,” 
says Massey. “We edited it in, just as a trial take, and we all 
thought it sounded great.”
