  • Today I take a walking tour a stones throw away from my own home! Abbey Road in St Johns Wood is the most famous recording studio in the world, and is of course famous for The Beatles album Abbey Road. Come and join me on this little tour of the outside area and hear a few facts along the way.

    I was there in 1984 when there was no graffiti. BTW, Abbey Road isn't just the cover of the album. It's where the Beatles recorded every one of their albums with only a few songs recorded elsewhere, notably All You Need is Love and Baby, You're a Rich Man at Olympic Sound Studios, Fixing a Hole at Regent Studios, Your Mother Should Know at Chappell Recording Studios, It's All Too Much at De Lane Lea Recording Studios, Hey Jude, Dear Prudence, Holy Pie, Savoy Truffle, Martha My Dear, I Want You (She's So Heavy) at Trident Studios.

    My wife and I went to this area today. We ate at Panzers as referred by Hannah in another video. We had a nice lasagna and salad. Great neighborhood and the beautiful Regents Park was just around the corner. Thank you Hannah for all of the advice and tips about London. We’re going to see a show in the West End tonight and we’re going to a restaurant in that area that Hannah recommended. We love London!!!

    Interesting in 1937 the coronation of king George VI was recorded then 2010 "The King's Speech" score about that coronation was recorded there. Awesome

    Thanks for posting this, I was just in London right before the lockdown started! I was visiting from Michigan, USA. I took the Tube to St. John's Wood, just as you did, and I made sure to walk the Abbey Road crossing and visit the little shop! This video made it feel like I'm there again : ) I bought the "I walked the crossing and then I drank some tea" mug but am regretting not getting the "I am the Eggman" egg cups!

    Hello Hannah, I recorded in Studio 2 in the Summer of 2008. My Texas band was there July 2,3, & 4(yes July 4th!) 12 hours a day. The Lp is titled "From Austin to Abbey Road" and our band name is "Scurvy Otto & The Rickets", different from your name spelling of course. We arrived a couple days after Brian Wilson and his crew were there and they took most of the different styles of artist only t-shirts given to paying customers. And the LSO was in Studio 1 recoding the soundtrack for Harry Potter. This shop was not there in '08, that building was apartments then. And people were actually walking into the car park to take pictures on the steps while I was trying to smoke my cigarettes. And the garden is in the back where the wooden side door is. And the in house restaurant we ate and drank from. And while no one was looking one night we went on the roof! Cheers-

    Abbey Road, Despite being not the final album the Beatles released was essentially their final Recorded Album. Them Leaving Abbey Road is symbolic that their journey as The Beatles is finally over.

    Absolutely loved the video! when I was there they didn't have the shop and the guard at the studio told me that they didn't have any tours at the time. they didn't have that much graffiti. Can't believe how much history is in that studio, I will go back someday, I got souvenirs from the Beatles little shop in Liverpool and I actually saw their first manager Alan Wiliams and didn't know who he was at the time lol.

    Hello Hannah 😊 First of all, I would like to thank you for a very thorough and professional presentation of that part of London. I've been a fan of Beatles music for over 20 years but unfortunately I didn't manage to come to London expecialy for crossing that famous pedestrian 🙂 I hope that someday I will notably because of the significance which Beatle music has had in my life. Greetings from Montenegro 👋

    100% the crossing is in the same place , two small metal covers in the original photo are in the same place today. The “ moved “ rumour was started by residents sick of crowds of fans constantly outside their homes.

    Great stuff! They used to have special events at Abbey Road which were interesting - I went on one to celebrate the anniversary of recording the Raiders of the Lost Ark soundtrack and they let you walk around the studios and the had a special screening of the film in the studio the music was recorded. A real goosebump moment! They let you know via email on their web site so may be worth checking if it’s still something they might do when things return to normal. Unbelievable how quiet it is! If you fancy a Beatles fix after the visit checkout the last Richard Curtis romcom called Yesterday which was all about the Beatles music. A good feel good movie if you’re in the mood for one.

    A friend and I were there in September 1980. Honestly don't remember the iron fence. In fact, I walked right up to the front door, kneeled down and looked through the mail drop. All I recall seeing was a long corridor. Suddenly someone opened the door and asked what I wanted. I should have offered a few quid for a tour. Just didn't think quickly enough.

    Each one of these London vlogs gets better and better! So much fun. I continue to love the maps and the information plaques. The Tube stop advice is wonderful! I’m curious about the term Oyster card. I know what one is but what is the origin of the name? Just curious.

    • @HannahRicketts
      @HannahRicketts  3 роки тому +1
