Don't Let Me Down

The track was recorded during the Get Back sessions in January 1969 with John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and Billy Preston. The released single version was recorded at Apple Studio in London, with George Martin producing and Glyn Johns engineering. Released as the B side of Get Back in 1969, it became one of the key Lennon songs from the Beatles final live in studio period. The single reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 as part of the Get Back double sided release. It remains one of the Beatles most celebrated late period recordings and a defining document of their rooftop concert era. The song has endured through Let It Be related reissues, live footage and numerous later cover versions.
