“Abbey Road Studios (formerly EMI Recording Studios) is a recording studio at 3 Abbey Road, St John's Wood, City of Westminster, London, England. It was established in November 1931 by the Gramophone Company, a predecessor of British music company EMI, which owned it until Universal Music took control of part of EMI in 2013. The studio's most notable client was the Beatles, who used the studio – particularly its Studio Two room – to create many of the most beloved songs in popular music history. Through the recording of these songs, the studio saw the development of innovative recording techniques that the band adopted throughout the 1960s. In the 1970s, the studio was renamed from EMI in honour of the group's 1969 album Abbey Road.” (Abbey Road Studios, Wikipedia)
