The band have covered “Dig A Pony” from the record and “Don’t Let Me Down” which featured as a B-side to the “Get Back” single, for Amazon Music’s [RE]DISCOVER campaign, which is focusing on The Beatles‘ final era this month. You can listen to Wilco‘s take on the tracks below.

It comes after a new deluxe version of Let It Be was released earlier this month.

The physical and digital “super deluxe” Let It Be collections featured 27 previously unreleased session recordings, a four-track Let It Be EP and the never-before-released 14-track “Get Back” stereo LP mix, which was compiled by engineer Glyn Johns in May 1969.

In other Beatles news, Peter Jackson‘s forthcoming documentary series The Beatles: Get Back will premiere on Disney+ from November 25-27.

The Beatles: Get Back will tell “the story of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr as they plan their first live show in over two years, capturing the writing and rehearsing of 14 new songs, originally intended for release on an accompanying live album.”

Wilco singer-guitarist Jeff Tweedy meanwhile, recently shared two new tracks, “C’mon America” and “UR-60 Unsent”, for Sub Pop’s latest Singles Club volume.
