Let It Be - Black America Sings Lennon, McCartney and Harrison

 

This was something else I picked up at our local library because I have loved some excellent souful Beatles covers such as Wilson Pickett's amazing take on "Hey Jude" (with Duane Allman, of course) and Ike and Tina's groovelicious "Come Together", as just two examples. Unfortunately, this comp overall has lesser talents and lesser takes on the Beat-boys classics. Of course, some are better than others and not everything is a drag, but as the album goes on, there are a lot more uninteresting takes than there are good ones.

Too bad - I had high hopes for this, but I could not Let It Be. Sorry to say, but definitely not recommended.
