Let It Be (50th anniversary boxset - SHM - Japanese edition)
Official album • Released in 2021
DDSI.22.80 • 4:12 • Studio version • H • Glyn Johns' 1969 mix. January 22, 1969 (EMI Tape E90489-8T and E90492-8T). Mixes #3 from 1969 and #4 from 1970 are the same, but since tracks 2-5 are linked together, we could be hearing either of them; however there is a very odd detail here with Track 3 “Don’t Let Me Down” that is not present in any of Glyn’s original mixes shortly after the false start during John’s words to Ringo: “Do a nice big pshhhh (imitates the sound of a cymbal) .. for me, you know, to give me the courage to come screaming in ”, and now we hear an edit and a glitch (0:19-0:20) just at the moment of saying the word “big“, which is cut off.
