Abbey Road Medley - The Beatles (STEREO) video

(STEREO) uk.youtube.com Copyright - 1969 EMI Records Ltd. Album Info With the Let It Be album partly finished, the sessions for Abbey Road began in April. Most of the album was recorded between 2 July and 1 August 1969. Properly, Abbey Road was the last album started by The Beatles before they disbanded. In September 1969, just shortly before the release of the album, John Lennon was on hiatus from the group with the Plastic Ono Band, effectively being the first official sign of dissolution. The Medley The climax of the album is the sixteen-minute medley consisting of several short songs, both finished and unfinished, blended into a suite by McCartney and George Martin. Most of these songs were written (and originally recorded in demo form) during sessions for The Beatles and the "Get Back"/Let It Be sessions. An alternate version with Harrison's lead guitar solo played against McCartney's (with Starr's drum solo heard slightly in the background) appears on the Anthology 3 album. The song ends with the memorable final line, "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make".
