This caused many to speculate about 9th Wonders' role within the group, some even suggesting that he may have left the group entirely. Asked for clarification, 9th responded:. Fan reaction to this news has been mixed, with some welcoming the new changes, and many others calling for greater involvement from 9th. Nonetheless, the album still had an overall positive outlook from critics. On 9 January McCartney brought a more developed version of "Get Back" to the group, with the "Sweet Loretta" verse close to its finished version.

For the press release to promote the "Get Back" single, McCartney wrote, "We were sitting in the studio and we made it up out of thin air At the beginning of the Let It Be version of the song, Lennon can be heard jokingly saying "Sweet Loretta Fart often misheard as "fat", due to Lennon's pronunciation [5] , she thought she was a cleaner, but she was a frying pan. In an interview in Playboy magazine in , Lennon described "Get Back" as " You know, a potboiler rewrite. When McCartney introduced the song to the group during the Twickenham rehearsals, the lyrics were mostly incomplete except for the "Get Back" chorus.

McCartney improvised various temporary lyrics leading to what has become known in Beatles' folklore as the "No Pakistanis" version. This version parodied the anti-immigrant views of Enoch Powell , a member of parliament whose racially charged speeches had recently gained much media attention. The lyrics addressed attitudes toward immigrants in the United States and the United Kingdom: The lyrics included a line "You'd better get back to your Commonwealth homes".

On 23 January, the group now in Apple Studios [10] tried to record the song properly; bootleg recordings preserve a conversation between McCartney and Harrison between takes discussing the song, and McCartney explaining the original "protest song" concept. The recording captures the group deciding to drop the third verse largely because McCartney does not feel the verse is of high enough quality, although he likes the scanning of the word "Pakistani". Billy Preston joined the Beatles on keyboards from 22 January, having been recruited by Harrison partly with a view to deter bickering among the Beatles.

The group with Preston playing Fender Rhodes electric piano recorded about ten takes on 23 January.

On 27 January they made a concerted effort to perfect "Get Back", recording about 14 takes. By this time the song had the addition of a false ending and reprise coda. After numerous takes the band jammed some old numbers and then returned to "Get Back" one last time in an attempt to record the master take. This performance Take 11 was considered to be the best yet — it was musically tight and punchy without mistakes, though the song finishes without the restart. On the session tape, George Harrison comments "we missed that end"; this is the version heard on the Let It Be On 28 January [2] the group attempted to recapture the previous day's performance and recorded several new takes each including the coda.

Whilst these takes were good, they did not quite achieve the quality of the best take from the previous day. Harrison, the usual lead guitarist, had temporarily quit the group on 10 January, so Lennon worked out the lead guitar. The edit is so precise that it appears to be a continuous take, achieving the ending the Beatles had desired all along.

This was a divergence from the concept of straight live performance without studio trickery, but a relatively minor one, and avoids the somewhat abrupt ending of the version that is used on the Let It Be The Beatles performed "Get Back" along with other songs from the album as part of the Beatles' rooftop performance , which took place on the roof of Apple Studios in Savile Row , London on 30 January , an edited version of which was included in the Let It Be film.

During the third, which marked the end of the rooftop performance, the Beatles were interrupted by the police who had received complaints from office workers nearby. After the police spoke to Mal Evans , he turned off Lennon and Harrison's amplifiers only for Harrison to switch them back on, insisting that they finish the song.

It was during this period that McCartney ad-libbed, "You've been playing on the roofs again, and that's no good, and you know your Mummy doesn't like that At the end of the last rooftop performance of "Get Back", the audience applauds and McCartney says "Thanks, Mo" in reply to Maureen Starkey 's cheering. The stereo single version, and that of the b-side, "Don't Let Me Down", were the first Beatles' recordings to feature Starr's drum kit in true stereo, mixed across the left and right channels.

This utilised the then-fairly new 8-track recording technology and was a result of the growing popularity of stereo over mono. The single began its week stay in the charts on 26 April at No. It was the first Beatles single to enter the official UK singles chart at the top.

Two weeks after the song's chart debut it hit No. Neither Apple nor Capitol Records created a picture sleeve for the single — it was simply packaged in a sleeve stating "The Beatles on Apple". This version also appeared in the albums 20 Greatest Hits , Past Masters and 1. It was also included in the original line-up of the proposed Get Back album that was scheduled to be released during the fall of
