[00:08] Facing the uncertainty of whether it would be their last album, the Beatles had planned a trip to the Himalayas to photograph the cover of Everest, the provisional title of the record.

[00:13] However, pressure from the record label and the complexity of such a distant trip led them to make a simpler decision: to go outside right in front of their studios and take a picture.

[00:25] A simple image but loaded with history. Abbey Road not only became the cover of a legendary album; it transcended music, transforming into a global icon, a place of pilgrimage, and the origin of one of the greatest myths in pop culture.

[00:45] In just 10 minutes, four men on an ordinary street in London created one of the most iconic photographs of all time.

[00:58] By the summer of 1969, the Beatles were in crisis. The biggest band in the world was barely managing to stay together in the studio.

[01:04] Although Let It Be would be released later, Abbey Road was actually their last recording together, and somehow they all knew it was the end.

[01:16] I think the Beatles have gone through so much, and it was a long time. They'd been incarcerated with each other for nearly a decade.

[01:22] Let It Be was such an unhappy record, really, even though there are some great songs on it. I really thought that was the end of the Beatles, and I thought I would never work with them again.

[01:30] I thought, what a shame to go out like this. So I was quite surprised when Paul rang me up and said, "We're going to make another record. Would you like to produce it?"

[02:00] And the engineer Jeff Emerick, who is our Beatles engineer who did all the great sounds for us, was smoking cigarettes called Everest. They were like a kind of menthol cigarette at the time.

[02:56] I drew a little picture of a level crossing with four people. Now you can't drive your car along there without getting stopped.

[03:41] Abbey Road was a fairly busy street, and Macmillan and the Beatles would have only a few minutes, along with the support of a traffic officer, to take the photo in record time.
