Setting the Stage for “Abbey Road” – Part 4
We’ve got some cool stuff up on our YouTube channel, which we hope you’ll check out.
Our two resident Beatle experts, Ken Womack and Scott Freiman, did a popular lecture series on the making of Abbey Road. In Part 4, they discuss songs including “Oh Darling,” “Octopus’ Garden” and the epic “She’s So Heavy.”

Funny about the mention of being jerked awake, by the end cut of I Want You, because the very first time I ever heard the song I was playing my brother’s Abby Road album in my room, with headphones on, and gradually falling asleep…. and exactly that happened — the cut-off at the end occurs, and I bolt straight up in bed, totally panicked for a moment, and look around for the someone who stopped the record!!! I’ll never forget that moment!
