If there's one phrase that best sums up the Beatles' final album, Let It Be, it is this: "The road to hell is paved with good intentions".
Asked about the feeling in the studio, Lennon was even more scathing: "It was just a dreadful, dreadful feeling ... by the time we got to Let It Be we couldn't play the game anymore."Released 50 years ago this week, the album was accompanied by a documentary of the same title that only emphasised the dark mood inside the group.
Peter Jackson was even more effusive: "You look like friends and you look like you're having a ball". The idea of going back to their roots was a good one. However, at this point, the group made what may now be seen as a fatal error. Paul, who quite rightly felt he'd been carrying the band for some time was, depending how you look at it, either overly enthusiastic or overbearing.
Finally, something had to give and, after a blazing row with John, George told his bandmates he was off: "See you 'round the clubs" was his goodbye.The next move was to abandon a full live concert, to shift the rehearsals to the Beatles' Apple recording studio and invite keyboard master Billy Preston to play with them. Preston's presence, it seems, made everyone behave and allowed the band to make some great music.
"I bought this idea that me and John were rivals, and we didn't like each other and stuff," he said in a recent radio interview. "But you see the film and it's like, thank God it's not true ... we're having fun together ... and it's a joy to see it unfold." Despite tensions within the group, the Beatles kept it together long enough to make Abbey Road, released in 1969.But their money-hungry manager Allen Klein wouldn't hear of it and set to work whipping into shape both the album and film, knowing he was on a commercial winner. To top it off they even had a major argument about the release date.
Let It Be was their final album to be released, but Abbey Road was the last album they recorded.
