Was the name of the Rolling Stones' album "Let It Bleed" taken from the name of the Beatles' album "Let It Be"?

One theory is that the Stones album was recorded around the same time as The Beatles Let It Be, but the similar titles were just a coincidence. http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=523 More creedence for this theory: Many believe that this song was a take on the Beatles' song/album Let It Be. The titles are very similar, and there was a running history of the Stones and the Beatles tweaking each other. The Stone's "Let It Bleed" was released months before "Let it Be," but it should be noted that most of the songs from Let It Be had been recorded earlier than most of the songs in Let It Bleed, and was a known project. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_It_Bleed_(song) Apr 20 08, 2:59 PM
