I don't believe that is the Beatles. There's not a single word, beat, or note in there that sounds even remotely like them.

It's listed as a song played by the band during the Let It Be sessions here: https://www.beatlesbible.com/features/g ... song-list/, but that's no guarantee of authenticity.

It's a great argument for why some outtakes should remain hidden forever though!

Sounds like a bunch of guys that have drank too much and got their guitars out.
If it is them (but don't think it is) the the tape should be burned! It's terrible.
EDIT: Although i have heard lots of Let it be outtakes and they are aweful so who knows? It was a miracle they got an album out of the sessions, they were a mess.

If one listens to most of the Let It Be rehearsals one will hear many are worse than their version of Move It.
But we should remember they are very VERY loose rehearsals and were never for public consumption.
The song list is very interesting though.

Move It (The Shadows) - 9


...Yes. Very interesting!

John Lennon once referred to the Let It Be recordings as "the sh***iest load of badly recorded sh*t" and expressed amazement that Phil Spector managed to get a good sounding album out of it all!

The Let it be movie was more interesting, it basically shows the band falling apart at the seams. John left them 9 months later.

I've heard this before, a long time ago. I'm sure there are Beatles on it, not sure if they all are.

Beatles or not, it's the worst version of this tune I have ever heard !
