Abbey Road Photo Turns 40


This weekend, the iconic album cover photograph for The Beatles Abbey Road turned 40 years old. The late Scottish photographer Iain Macmillan took the image.

BBC News has a nice article about the image, but the link also has some interesting audio clips from John Kosh, the album's creative director, as well as comments from the two album reviewers for Rolling Stone magazine.
