Photo: The shot before 'Abbey Road'
Making the rounds on Facebook, is something that intrigues me more than the usual viral video of the day.
Perhaps the most iconic image by The Beatles, is the four walking across 'Abbey Road." Unseen by many, the site fstoppers.com posted the photo taken prior to the shot that we all have come to know and love. They were oblivious to the importance of the image which is about to be captured. Moments later, the cover of Abbey Road was made and sealed into history.
Now I want to know who that lady is? Any Beatles fans have an idea?
The photo most of us have seen below was taken August 8, 1969 outside EMI Studios on Abbey Road. Photographer Iain Macmillan was given only ten minutes to take the photo while he stood on a step-ladder and a policeman held up the traffic.
