It’s a movie for kids, they’re not gonna dig it, man!
Thank you for the excellent articles on the new Let It Be films and music [MOJO 336]. Yes; loved the Peter Jackson films and the incredible new mixes, but I do have some problems with the Jackson films. One of the most striking aspects was how George was really not given the attention by John and Paul – as they admit during their secretly taped conversation in the cafeteria. So what on earth led Peter Jackson to delete the complete performance of George’s For You Blue and the studio performances of Let It Be, Two Of Us and The Long And Winding Road? All on the 1970 version. Bit like doing an extended version of Magical Mystery Tour and leaving out I Am The Walrus.
