About this deal

While there can be a little confusion about the last Beatles album- Abbey Road was the last official Beatles album all four members worked on together. (Let it Be was released after the group disbanded-and is a story for another day.) We have a zero tolerance approach to verbal and physical abuse of our staff. Please respect our staff who are working hard to provide a service for you. What has been going on there for over ninety years has called for skills that are musical, creative, technical, mechanical, interpersonal, logistical, managerial, chemical and, romantics might be tempted add, close to magic. It may have begun life as an affluent suburban house, but it soon became a creative hub renowned around the world as a place where great music, ground-breaking sounds and unforgettable tunes were forged - nothing less than a witness to, and a key participant in, the history of popular music itself.

The overriding ego-driven rift between the Beatles had been coming to a head for some time, since the untimely death of manager Brian Epstein, and without the man’s insightful acumen the band had been moving forward artistically unfocused, but financially losing much of the royalties coming to them. When the clash between Paul and the other three, John, George and Ringo emerged concerning management between either Allen Klein or John Eastman wedged the band apart, they continued to produce musical product essentially to keep the money coming in.

The title of this book, Solid State, refers to the transition in the 1960s in popular music from vacuum tube amplifiers to solid semiconductors, which opened up a world of innovation in music production and sound quality. It also serves as a metaphor for what the Beatles did to popular music - they left the old methods in the dust and paved the way for just about every musician and performer who followed them. Even if you aren’t a diehard fan of The Beatles, this book will still hold your interest, especially if you have any knowledge of recording technology or music history.You are responsible for unloading items from your vehicle so only bring what you can lift. If you have bulky items, please book a bulky waste collection service through your Council or our ‘ Any junk Service’. Our staff will not be able to help you with moving waste from your vehicle. Still, there is a lot of great content here about the inner workings of the Beatles' operations and the relationships among the bandmates as things began to fray. In February 1969, the Beatles began working on what became their final album together. Abbey Road introduced a number of new techniques and technologies to the Beatles' sound, and included "Come Together," "Something," and "Here Comes the Sun," which all emerged as classics.

Of course, the Alan Parsons name drop may also be of interest to those who were not aware of his participation in the making of this album. His most notable claim to fame, besides his own personal projects, was his work on ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ by Pink Floyd- and for his work on the Lord of the Rings movies. Don't let the 3-star fool you. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There was a little more focus on the technical aspects of recording, sound engineering, and production than I expected. Should have guessed that from the title. You are responsible for unloading items from your vehicle. If you have bulky items that you can't lift, book a waste collection through your Council or our AnyJunk Service. No manual handling assistance will be available. Primrose Hill.

Image Location: Primrose Hill Is Abbey Road worth a visit?Overall, this is an interesting book, especially for Beatles fans, but also for anyone who enjoys music history. Timber and all wood including pallets, skirting boards, shelves, laminate/wood flooring and fitted furniture. This is a wonderfully detailed account of the making of The Beatles' album "Abbey Road" - in fact, for a layman like myself, the level of detail is perhaps a little over the top at times, but for true fans - which may be the primary target audience of the book - I am sure that all details are welcome or even necessary. It is amazing how this album came together, considering everything going on behind the scenes. The exciting studio wizardry juxtaposed against the turmoil within the band’s stratosphere, shows the various ways the music is symbolic and a mirror into the lives of the group at that time. While so many things The Beatles did musically inspired people and blazed trails artistically, The Abbey Road album influenced the way music was made and continued to be an example for years to come. Abbey Road has long been my favorite album by The Beatles, even more than their epic Sgt. Pepper. In this light, I knew little about their making of this epic album. For a total disclaimer, I'm already biased about this album.
