Let It Be (Laibach album)

Let It Be is a cover album by the Slovenian avant-garde group Laibach. It was released in 1988 and is a cover of the Beatles' 1970 album Let It Be. It was recorded in Laibach style with military rhythms and choirs, although a few tracks deviate from this formula, most notably "Across the Universe" featuring Anja Rupel of Videosex. The title track is omitted and "Maggie Mae" is replaced by the German folk song "Auf der Lüneburger Heide" in combination with "Was gleicht wohl auf Erden". "For You Blue" begins with Moondog's "Crescent Moon March", which is subsequently used as a counter-melody. "One After 909" includes a small portion of "Smoke on the Water", originally written and recorded by the band Deep Purple.
