| | The last five tracks on the album are possibly some of the more strange tracks on the album. | | | Add the best guitar work on the album, and you’re set for the highlight of the album. | | | And ‘Abbey Road Blues’ is probably the heaviest song on the album, with a blues riff and McCartney even screaming the lyrics. |

| | The album title, of course, refers to the Emi Studios in Abbey Road where The Beatles recorded almost all their songs. | | | The song was composed during the recordings for the White Album, but it made it too late to appear in it. | | | The shortest and last recording in a Beatles album, could have proved to be a wonderful song, but lasting only 23 seconds, it seems like of Paul had also decided to leave the studio and consider The End as the truly last song of the best group of all time. |

| | The quickest and technically simplest song on the album, this reprised and abbreviated remake of Paul's album title track was recorded from start to finish in just one session on Sunday I April 1967, with all four Beatles sharing the lead vocal. | | | The concept of the album had already evolved: it would be as though the Beatles were another band, performing a concert. | | | The song inspired the concept of the album, not the other way, around, so until this recording commenced on I February 1967 the two previously taped album songs had not shared any deliberate, connecting thread. |

| | The Beatles' history at the studios began 6 June, 1962; they arrived at Abbey Road in an old white van, wearing black leather jackets and unloaded their battered equipment, including unpainted wooden amplifiers, which left much to be desired in the eyes and ears of the recording technicians. | | | Throughout the Beatle years, hit songs such as "She Loves You," "I Want to Hold Your Hand," and "Help!" were recorded here, as were the masterpiece albums Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and, of course, Abbey Road. | | | It's a busy intersection and not every driver is willing to stop for a tourist who wants to have his or her picture snapped where the Beatles' picture was taken for the Abbey Road album cover. |
