Legendary engineer for The Beatles Glyn Johns, has slammed Let It Be as 'a bunch of garbage'.
Writing in his new memoir, Sound Man, the acclaimed studio figure spoke of how he was disappointed with the material presented to him after Phil Spector had got involved.
"I was disappointed that (John) Lennon got away with giving it to Spector, and even more disappointed with what Spector did to it," Johns told the New York Times. "It has nothing to do with the Beatles at all.
"Let It Be is a bunch of garbage. As I say in the book, he (Spector) puked all over it. I've never listened to the whole thing, I've only listened to the first few bars of some things and said, 'Oh, forget it!' It was ridiculously, disgustingly, syrupy."
