Written by freelance music journalist Alistair Lawrence with a foreword by Sir George Martin, Abbey Road celebrates the 80th year of the world’s most famous recording studio in style.

This lovingly produced book is a must-have for all music lovers. From the original bill of sale for the property and classic landmark recordings to today’s sessions, Abbey Road takes the reader through the studio’s illustrious history.

Featuring interviews with key figures and a wealth of rare and never-before-seen photos collected from the studios’ own private archive, the book provides a fascinating insight into the creative home of artists such as Kate Bush, The Beatles and Pink Floyd.

Abbey Road is an incredible document of cultural history for anyone who values music and how it's made. This is the essential music book of the decade.

Sir George Martin states:
"This then is the story of the greatest studio in the world - it was my nursery along with so many brilliant stars who created their work there. It is a terrific story, well told and even though I know most if it I still find it captivating. So imagine you are coming with me up those steps to the doors of Number Three Abbey Road. You will have a super time, I promise you."

Jonathan Smith, Senior Vice President EMI Studios says:
“Our rooms have hosted some of the finest recordings ever made, great artists, composers and musicians, not to mention producers, engineers and technicians who are at the heart of our piece of the creative process. The Abbey Road Studios story is a fabulous one and this book is a wonderful chronicle.”
