Will Let It Be come to hirez soon?

There was also the recent reissue of A Hard Day's Night on DVD. It's just released The Beatles Anthology on DVD for the first time. In the fall, Apple Records will issue Let it Be on DVD and on a remixed CD without Phil Spector's much-discussed overblown production. It should be a bonanza.

I saw this on the Fox News site. If they issue Let It be in a remix, perhaps it will be a good time to go hirez.
Does any Beatle fan on the Forum have more detail on this upcoming remix?
Without Phil Spector's hacking, it might be really good.

Oh great, I can see a protracted thread titled "Phil Spector is Pissed....." where we debate ad nausuem the virtues or evils of having or not having the original engineer invloved in a re-release.
For reference, please see Floyd, Pink - DOSTM

According to Ringo, it's the same tracks, just de-Spectorized, NOT the Get Back LP that was put together in 1969.

The 1969 Get Back (Glyn Johns mix) was never intended to come out. It was a rough mix for the Beatles to decide on and obviously they decided against it. What will probably come out is roughfly the same album that came out minus symphonic overdubs. But I wish that they would release at least a two disc set with the whole rooftop concert and more bonus tracks like the complete take of Dig It, Besame Mucho, and All Thing's Must Pass.

It WAS intended to come out. Rolling Stone & The Beatle Book had contemporary articles, at the time, showing the Glyn Johns track listing as final and reviewing the cuts. That's why acetates escaped to many US radio stations, which immediately started playing it & were hit with cease & desist orders. Packaging was prepared (like the Get Back book included in the early UK pressings of the Let It Be box set--that's why it's called Get Back & not Let It Be)(I don't think that the wooden box & coloring book that were also supposed to be included were ever made). The Beatle Book was just about the closest thing to hearing it from the horse's mouth, and THEY weren't regarding it as a rough mix. They considered it to be the next Beatles LP.

Still to come are the "lost" Get Back album, as well as first-time CD issues of albums such as Beatles' Rarities and Live at Shea Stadium.
