We
won't bother blathering on about why this is just such
a great studio, you know that already. You don't need
to be told that Abbey Road is the best studio in the
World, you know that already... So, that's great for
us blurb writers, we can skip work and leave you to
tour around our selection of video interviews and tours
safe in the knowledge that you'll be busy for hours
and won't notice us slip back in to continue the blurb
writing.
The
following features were either shot at Abbey Road or
have a connection with the studios. Just remember, Abbey
Road may have vast historic importance but it continues
to be one of the World's leading recording facilities
so PLEASE do visit
them if you have a suitable project!
Just
one final word - just because they are so well known
and so respected shouldn't put you off visiting and
booking. The staff are fantastic, once you're over being
there you'll find that Abbey Road has a unique feel
and atmosphere that really is great!
