message: Could there perhaps be some mention in the article about how the  inclusion of “Don't Let Me Down” on the album was apparently telegraphing its removal from the Let It Be album project, of which it had been an integral part in previous "drafts" of the Get Back/Let It Be album? 67.186.19.151 (talk) 12:11, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Since the song had already been included as the B-side to the "Get Back" single, the decision had already been made not to include the song on the final lineup of the Let It Be album.  Same would hold true for "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)," though that was sort of a gag song and never considered for inclusion.  It was also agreed that the A-sides, "Get Back" and "Let it Be" would be slightly different when placed on the actual album.  98.221.141.21 (talk) 00:54, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: "Since the song had already been included as the B-side to the 'Get Back' single, the decision had already been made not to include the song on the final lineup of the Let It Be album." Utterly UNTRUE. Do you actually know anything about the LIB album's history? "Get Back/Don't Let Me Down" was issued in April 1969, when hopes were still alive that a Get Back album might be issued from the January 1969 sessions. There was every intention of including both songs in the album at this point, as records of early album "drafts" clearly show. It was only by the following year, after the recording and release of Abbey Road, and John Lennon's abandonment of the group shortly thereafter, that any change of this plan was evidenced. As for "Let It Be/You Know My Name", it was released under entirely different circumstances in 1970; there was indeed no connection between YKMN and the Let It Be album -- YKMN was a 'joke' the Beatles had been kicking around for a couple years, released on the B-side of LIB as more a 'final lark' than anything. Its non-inclusion in the album was a completely separate issue from "Don't Let Me Down". And the different album versions of GB and LIB, however vaguely their genesis may be characterized, is yet another issue altogether. So my original question/suggestion still remains. 67.186.19.151 (talk) 12:15, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  “Don’t Let Me Down” excision from ''Let It Be'' 

message: It might also be mentioned how this album follows the typical pattern of Capitol's US Beatles albums, which generally contain just six songs on side one, and five on side two (where you could consider that the 7-minute-long "Hey Jude" counts as two in that reckoning). The other instances that adhere to this pattern:
The Beatles' Second Album
Something New
Beatles '65
The Early Beatles
Beatles VI
Yesterday and Today
the US Revolver
Magical Mystery Tour
Exceptions:
Meet the Beatles and the US Rubber Soul have six tracks on side two, as does the US Help! album, a mix of Beatles, and Ken Thorne instrumentals.
Indeed, the upcoming finalized Let It Be would essentially fall into this principal pattern, its seven side-one tracks containing two extremely short, basically counting as one combined; and literally five on side two. 67.186.19.151 (talk) 12:54, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

message: I've updated the links to electric piano. The electric piano Nicky Hopkins played in Revolution was a Hohner Pianet while the one Billy Preston played in Don't Let Me Down was a Fender Rhodes so I edited that accordingly.--Kevjgav (talk) 19:48, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

message: The 2014 CD version, if I'm not mistaken, was derived from the the 2009 British catalog CD remasteres.  It was NOT the original mix released in 1970 in the US.  Is this an accurate statement, and, if so, should the article clarify this?  73.194.85.220 (talk) 17:52, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  January 2014 CD Release 

message: This article states all songs on "Hey Jude" album had not been released on an American Beatles album. But the very 1st one listed,"I should have known better," is stated as being on the American "A Hard Day's Night" album. Was George's "Old Brown Shoe," also not originally on the White Album? 174.233.17.53 (talk) 17:13, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
