A DAY IN THE LIFE To most of you, London’s Abbey Road Studios will need no introduction, but just in case... It is arguably the most renowned recording facility in the world, made most famous by the Fab Four, who recorded eighty percent of their music here in Studio Two during the swinging ‘60s. And let’s not forget Pink Floyd’s seminal Dark Side Of The Moon, also recorded within those same four walls. The list of artists goes on, and on, and on... Today, under ownership of the Universal Music Group, the studio is buzzing, and as busy as ever. Raiders of the Lost Ark was the first film to be scored here in the late ‘70s, and Studio One in particular has become a real hub for that medium in recent years; many bands, old and new, are still clambering to record here. This is my first visit to the establishment, so perhaps you’ll forgive me for taking the obligatory selfie as I walk briskly across that zebra crossing before entering the hallowed ground? No? Okay... So without further ado, in we go.
