Beatles's 40th Abbey Road Anniversary



Forty years ago, The Beatles shot an album cover
along Abbey Road and hundreds of fans stormed the
famous spot to mark the event.

The cover caught the Fab Quartet strolling across
the famous crossing to meet in the north west
London and do their singing.

The shot was recreated with Beatles lookalikes
crossing the same path organized by tour guide
and Beatles cafe owner, Richard Porter.

Porter said: "The picture is just so easy to copy
well normally it is easy to copy. It is simple
and it's like a shrine to the Beatles."

Beatles's former road manager joined the event and
said: "Other than Paul and Ringo, I'm the only
person alive who was here on that day. It's great
to see that the whole thing carries on. Through
the musical genres and revolutions of the last 40
years the Beatles are still number one."
