47: Beatles release Abbey Road


Abbey Road is the eleventh official album recorded by The Beatles. Although its release preceded that of Let It Be, the latter was mostly recorded in January 1969. Work on Abbey Road began in earnest in April of that year, making it the last album started by The Beatles. The album was released on October 1, 1969 in the United States, and is regarded as one of The Beatles’ most tightly constructed albums, even though the band was barely operating as a team at the time.
