Let It Be was supposed to be the album "getting back" to their roots. They wanted essentially to perform a live album, in studio. No overdubs, etc. At some point, it was going to be anything and everything, a live show, a movie, they were going to record some of their older songs, etc. The grandiose plans just kept getting bigger and bigger, as were the riffs between the band members. If you listen to the "fly on the wall" disc of Naked, you'll hear them talking about a show on a boat, for instance. Harrison wanted none of that. Then Ringo nixed a trip "abroad," although no exact mention of where this meant.
The Naked version of 'The Long and Winding Road' is great. However, the title track, isn't as good as the original album. For the last verse on the album, I love the drum accents.

PS- I would love the Let It Be movie to be released BTW. From what I know, Harrison never wanted that released while he was alive, and I think his wife is carrying on with that vow. I remember watching the VHS version many years ago.
