-Abbey Road is the eleventh official album released by The Beatles.
............................
-Abbey Road became one of the most successful Beatles albums ever. In the UK the album debuted straight at #1. Abbey Road spent its first 11 weeks in the UK charts at #1, and then was knocked off just for 1 week to #2 by the Rolling Stones debuting at the top with Let It Bleed. However, the following week – which was the Christmas week – Abbey Road returned to the top for another 6 weeks, completing 17 weeks at the top. In all it spent 92 weeks inside the UK Top 75, making a big re-entry after over 16 years in October 31, 1987, when it was released for the first time on CD and reached #30. In the UK Abbey Road was the best-selling album of 1969 and the fourth best-selling of the entire 1960s, and the eighth best-selling album of 1970.
.................................
-Abbey Road was released in the United Kingdom on September 26, 1969, and in the United States on October 1, that same year. It had been intended by song and design to be their last album, but things didn't work out as The Beatles planned.
..................................
After The Beatles finished recording "The Beatles" (The White Album) in October 1968, and released in November, it was followed by their third film, Yellow Submarine, released in January 1969. During this time period, they also finished songs that would eventually turn into their last album, Let It Be. However, because the Let It Be sessions were a disaster for The Beatles, Abbey Road was their attempt to restore their image. During the Let It Be sessions, The Beatles were at odds with each other; Yoko was ever present with John; and many times, George and Ringo would not show up at all. This was the beginning of the end and as it turned out, Abbey Road caused the death of The Beatles. Because George Martin favored McCartney's ideas for the album, this caused friction between them and Lennon, causing John to basically withdraw from the sessions. Consequently, Abbey Road is really a Paul McCartney album. Much of Lennon's material was placed by the side, in a manner, considered hackwork.
***But, strangely, The Beatles never sang nor played together better then they did on Abbey Road. Although John Lennon resented to his dying day the fact that Paul did not let him sing the lead on Oh! Darling, which was Paul's song, they still were never more brilliant, more musically tight, than on Abbey Road. Their vocals and harmonies were never better, nor more inventive and precise than on this album.
In an attempt to restore their magic, Abbey Road was a compromise album, whereby John picked the songs he preferred for side A (on the original vinyl) and Paul chose the songs for side B, which both he and producer George Martin liked. The result is what I believe to be one of the top three albums in The Beatles history. The famous "medley" which began with You Never Give Me Your Money, was assembled from actually many unfinished songs, vignettes if you will, that is a work of genius, I believe.
Abbey Road is a absolute testament and proof that their art can be achieved, even when it appeared it was forced out of them, regardless of their personal problems with each other. This masterpiece found its way to the surface, in spite of the fact that it was against the wishes of its creators.
