Let It Be: A Celebration of the Music of the Beatles

I cannot say enough about this show. We loved the music -- we grew up with it. I truly appreciated the dedication to the music, especially the drums being covered with towels to muffle the sounds for the appropriate selections they played. Trust me; I have read A Lot about how they created their music! We had a rockin' good time at the (historic) Akron Civic Theater enjoying the group Let It Be perform Beatles music from their concert beginnings through post (divorced so to speak) Beatles. I heard songs I've never heard Beatles tribute bands perform -- Slow Down, Because, Let It Be; it was a great evening!! It was a great concert. They broke the first half into musical phases the Beatles went through. The second half was an imaginary reunion of the group in Oct 1980. They mixed in songs written and/or performed by individuals after the breakup with more Beatles music. We really were intrigued with the 1980 "reunion" the group performed. One could "imagine" (no pun intended) the group getting back together after 10 years time of not recording or performing together. It was great and a element to the concert we really enjoyed!

Saw this when they were on Broadway. WOW!!! Had us singing and dancing in our seats!!!

The show was amazing - the first half highlighted the early years, right up to the inevitable break-up. The second half imagines John s 40th birthday and a reunion concert that never was. The entire show brought people to their feet, had the audience singing and dancing in the aisles and shining cell phone lights like lighters. The musicians were spot-on brilliant - a talented bunch of guys who embody and invoke the spirit of the Beatles. Hands down, it was a superb show and my family is still talking about the guitar solo at the end of While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

Absolutely a great show! Fun and well performed. Felt like we were actually in the company of the real Beatles.
