50 Years (and 4 days) ago today the Beatles and Sir George Martin release the album, Abbey Road. The name comes from the address of the EMI Studios (3 Abbey Road, Westminster) where the album was recorded. In 1970, the studio changed its name to "Abbey Road Studios" to reflect the popularity of the Beatles album.

You Beatles fans:  comments?????

Abbey Road has always been my favorite Beatles album. Hard to believe it is 50 years old!

Have you seen the new Abbey Road Volkswagen ad (with no Beatles)? The Volkswagen has been correctly parked as well 🙂. Wonder why they didn't duplicate the license plate.

More (Volkswagen-related) Abbey Road information here.

My Beatles "best stuff" started with Revolver and went forward.  I still have trouble with "She loves you"-like early songs at this point.  I will always enjoy John Lennon's sarcasm while their musical growth included the efforts of Harrison. Truly great music.

Enjoy,

Bryan
