Spector did post-production work in 1970 on Let It Be(salvaged from the abandoned Get Back project of 1969), sharing production credit with George Martin (who supervised the original sessions) and Glyn Johns (who remixed some of the recordings). He did not work directly with the Beatles on the recordings, though Ringo Starr did attend a session, playing drums to help the orchestra and choir keep their timing.

Spector's touches went against the original intent of the album, which was to record all the songs live without making changes later. While most of the Beatles were satisfied with the results, which made a sellable album out of a project they'd just as soon have forgotten (John Lennon's reaction was "When I heard it, I didn't puke"), Paul McCartney was furious, and decided it was time to start a solo career.

McCartney later spearheaded Let It Be - Naked, which was a digital remix and edit of the original recordings, more in line with the original concept.
