Abbey Road Studios, London

The Beatles' final masterpiece was recorded right here in this studio. The Fab Four loved the place so much that although some of their most notorious infighting occurred here, they decided to name the resulting album after it. The 1969 LP Abbey Road, the cover of which featured the boys crossing the street out in front of the studio, was a classics-packed triumph, and Abbey Road's epic legacy was cemented in the hearts and minds of rock aficionados forever. Today, Abbey Road Studios continues to operate as a fully functioning, top-of-the-line recording studio (and plays host to the very occasional concert event).
