    More like an homage Ian, like The Clash's London Calling cover is to Elvis Presley's debut album.

    Here is the second one. I must admit I bought 2 copies to do my bit to stop Take That I think it was from having the Christmas number one. Are there any you can think of?

    With apologies to @AberdeenSaint the best recording of bagpipes anywhere.

    Some photos of Abbey Road, London. From the 1960s, of course ;)


    First up, The video is covered by Let It Be, which didn't appear on this particular album, but on an earlier recorded album that was released later than this one. Does that make sense??? Quite nice piano version.

    Anyway, here is what one person said of this on Youtube comments:
    Let’s talk about that remarkable LP cover photograph. It was simplicity itself - go outside the recording studio and traverse the pedestrian crossing a few times. Okay, so traffic had to be halted briefly, but the out-take photos reveal there were no hordes of assistants, press handlers, light reflectors, camera equipment.....no towing in a VW Beetle to get the [LMW] 28IF “clue” into the shot. Just four of the most famous people on earth, a few bystanders, and after a short while (30, 40 minutes?) one of the most iconic images of all time was captured on a roll of film. Marvellous.
