help The Beatles Abbey Road FAQ
Was Abbey Road really the last Beatles album?
Abbey Road was the last Beatles album the band recorded together, though Let It Be was released afterward in 1970. Abbey Road itself was released in 1969.
Why is the second side of Abbey Road famous?
Side two contains the long medley that links songs such as "You Never Give Me Your Money," "Sun King," "Golden Slumbers," "Carry That Weight," and "The End." That suite is one reason Abbey Road is treated as a studio-album landmark rather than just a collection of singles.
Which Beatles songs from Abbey Road became the biggest classics?
"Come Together," "Something," and "Here Comes the Sun" are the best-known tracks. George Harrison wrote both "Something" and "Here Comes the Sun," which helped cement his role as more than the band's third songwriter.
Where was the Abbey Road cover photo taken?
The cover photo was taken at the zebra crossing outside EMI Studios in London, later renamed Abbey Road Studios. The image of John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison crossing the street became one of the most recognizable album covers ever.
