Abbey Road & Paul's feet



The Beatles - 1969

The final album and the end of a legend. The album Let it be was released on 1970 after the band decided to break up, but this album was recorded in 1968 but thanks to discussions between McCartney and Lennon the album wasn't published until 1970. Abbey Road was the last album of the group recorded in a 1969 and in a  tense environment, the problems between The Beatles seemed to grow and the goodbye was unstoppable.


This album count with the famous cover, this cover of the Beatles crossing the street inspired many wild legends, one of the most shocking theories is the one who talks about the death on Paul McCartney. This theory is reinforced with "clues" that the Beatles left in the cover for the fans to find them.
Clues as the car in the left side of the street, the fans said that the license plate contains the age of the real Paul; there is another clue that talks about the clothes that the Beatles were wearing, as you can see Lennon was wearing white clothes that made him the priest, then Ringo with black is the friend in grief, Paul isn't wearing shoes and has closed eyes so it made him the death man and finally George that is the  gravedigger. Sounds crazy right?


Abbey Road count with 18 songs, however this album was more successful for George Harrison  thanks to songs as Here comes the sun & Something. Ringo for his part wrote Octopus's Garden that until today this song is still a hit.
The album have the song "The end", that count with 3 guitar solos, one drum solo for Ringo and the iconic quote "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make" thats how the Beatles say goodbye to the world with this unforgettable album and its songs.

Random Fact! The photo that mark a new era in the rock only took 10 minutes to take it.


Thanks!
