Abbey Road at 50

This past Friday, I received the 50th anniversary edition of Abbey Road. It's beautiful. I'm really impressed with the mixing of Giles Martin. He does a wonderful job highlighting Ringo's drumming, and the harmonies of this album. Especially on the song "Because" and the second Abbey Road melody.

The demos included in this collection are wonderful. I've always seen Abbey Road as this mysterious album. There isn't a lot of photos of The Beatles recording the album. Plus with it being their last album, there's an added layer of importance to it. It's funny, this is the 4th time I've purchased Abbey Road, and it really doesn't get old.
