A big thank you to Geoff Pesche. It was so kind of him to invite you and your wife to tour Abbey Road Studio and allowing us to enjoy your story.
Seeing the St Pepper’s recording machine at close quarters like that would be like holding Picasso’s favourite paintbrush.
The richness of the sound that came from those machines cannot be duplicated any other way. Analog forever!
Thanks Dan for this Magical Mystery tour of Abbey Road.
As a child of the 60s and retired commercial radio station technical engineer, I found this video really cool
Thanks 🙏
Thanks Dan,This was fantastic.I was born in 1956, so all my memories of the 60s and 70s music and especially The Beatles are great.I miss those times so much.
Hey john, you're so welcome :-) glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the support. Cheers, Dan
Thanks again,Dan. What a great vacation that turned out to be. It sure seemed like a great time was had by All.!! Hey you passed 90k. Way to go Dan
@@MoviesMusicMonsters No other band compares to The Beatles. John, Paul, George and Ringo were unique and their songs were top notch.
If I had to pick my favorite Beatles song it would have to be, Hard days night.
Since I Was Born In April 1962, I Was Almost 2 Years Old, When The Beatles First Played At The Ed Sullivan Show, On February 11th 1964, Wherein I Was A Month And A Half Away From My 2nd. Birthday, So I Literally Grew Up Listening To The Beatles, Being The Youngest Of 4 Siblings . . .
As I Grew Up, And Entered The 1970's, As A 7 Year Old, I Decided To Listen To All Of The Beatles Albums, Which My Older Brother William Had Amassed From The 1960's, Which Included Their Let It Be Final Album, Which Should Have Been Their Abbey Road Album, Which Was Recorded At The Same Time As Their Let It Be Album, Which Was Released In Late 1970, And George Harrison's 3-Album Masterpiece: All Things Must Pass, Which Older Brother William Played All The Time, So I Was Thoroughly Programmed With Their Beatles Music, Then George Harrison's Solo Music, Then John Lennon's Solo Music, Then James Paul McCartney Jr's Solo Music, Then Richard Starkey, ( I.E. Ringo Star's ) Solo Music, So I Was A Bonified Beatles Fan From Age 2 On, And I Still Am A Major Beatles Fan At Age 62 Years Old . . . 🙂 lol . . .
Rest In Peace, Jonathan Winston Lennon, And George Harrison, And Thank You Both, And James Paul McCartney Jr., And Richard Starkey, For Giving My Siblings, And Myself, Your Beautiful, And Wonderful Music Soundtrack To Grow Up With And To . . .:-)
Peace Be With You . . . :-)
What a magical mystery tour for you and your wife . I'm 74 , so 13 when I first heard The Boys in '63 on L.A. a m station KRLA . Thank you Dan 👍♥️
Visiting Abbey Road Studios and sitting inside studio 2 was otherworldly for me - almost an out of body experience. I was lucky enough to be in London at the same time a Beatles lecture series was taking place in November 2021. Right place, right time. Climbing the stairs to the control room ... seeing all the original equipment ... simply amazing, and I agree it's too bad more people can't experience it. Fun fact: I went to high school, and was college roommates for one year with, the CEO of Avid Technologies - maker of Pro Tools. We lost touch years ago, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's been there - we were both huge Beatles fans and drove to L.A. to see Beatlemania while still in HS in '78.
The hallowed ground of rack and roll.
Thank you Dan, that was awesome. To see it from a fans perspective instead of a documentary is even cooler. I was born February 6th 1964. I guess I was racing the plane coming in from London on February 7th! I'm a lifelong Beatles fan, and the city I live in in New Jersey is actually the hometown of Paul's current wife. A couple of years ago, he was wandering downtown about 5 mi from where I live. Talk about missing an opportunity in my own backyard! But again thank you for that fun trip to Abbey Road Studios
Alan Parsons was the sound engineer on the Beatles album Abby Road also engineered Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. He, of course, went on to put together one great recording career himself.
I was 17 when Mark Lewisohn released his Complete Beatles Recording Sessions book and got it for Christmas. I spent so many hours poring over every little detail and listening to the songs while reading about how they were made. It's such an incredibly interesting and valuable book
Hey there :-) yeah, it's a great book but even Mark Lewisohn himself feels this outdated. He's including a lot of the newly updated information in his huge Trilogy of books.
One other reason to visit, is not so much to cross the pelican crossing BUT to watch the reaction of drivers as the almost endless number of people cross the road on the only grade 2 listed road crossing in the entire UK.
Expect expletives :)
Good to see you geek out Dan. You and your wife had a blast.
"Wish You Were Here" was also recorded at Abbey Road. During the recoding a guy walked with no eyebrows and overweight. The members of Pink Floyd didn't know who he was. Then after a time Richard Wright asked who that was and it was Sid Barrett. One of the original members of the band. They had not see him in years, last time he was skinny and had eyebrows. It hit them all hard on how much their friend had changed, even Roger Waters started to cry.
Dan: First, I am SO appreciative of your humble attitude upon your invitation into Abby Road. Most TH-camrs would say "It's about time I got in here." Thanks for the incredible access!
Vintage recording techniques and no friggin' auto-tune...can't beat it!👍
Geoff Pesche picked the perfect couple to nerd out at Abbey Road studio. Thank you for taking us along!!☺️
While I was just a kid growing up in the 60's (born 59) I really remember the Beatles. I can remember the time just before and once they hit the air waves everything changed. I can remember when their newest albums came out and started being played on the local AM radio. I also recall the news when it was announced they were breaking up. Always wished they could have produced one more album together but that was forever ended in 79. While I am not a musician in any way, I always am curious on how they old songs were recorded. Just as you talked about the modern offerings for the classic sound effects, they just aren't the same as what they used back then. Good video, and anymore Beatles content would "be so cool" to watch one day.
Born in London, 1944, during WWII, last there for 2 weeks in July 2013, and the
surrounding areas, from Earl's Court.
Saw wherevI lived, Park West, near
Edwere Road above Marble Arch.
My parents came to NYC in 1949 on
the Queen Mary, and first back in
1979 with my parents. Now 80 years
old, and a USAF Disabled American
Veteran, and remember the Beatles
arrival to NYC in 1964, while starting
college. Cheers. 😊
That's incredibly cool. I would love to see studio 2. Abbey Road is my favorite Beatles record.
Really enjoyed this one. Watched it twice.
Hey thanks :-) the videos I do on music are never as popular, but I love doing them just the same.
This one really hit the nostalgia feels. Thanks for that.
It's like watching a kid on Christmas opening the gift that he never expected, BUT always hoped for! Good on you, SIR and GOOD on your epic Mrs.!
I was fortunately invited in a few years ago by two kind employees and given a wonderful but brief tour. Also could not take photographs. Thanks for this.
Yep, the equipment and recording rooms would've knocked me out!!
That was a pretty incredible experience to get so impromptu. Thanks for sharing all these details.
It was really far out :-)
Ah!!! I'm so jealous! I visited London in 1988 and made it as far as getting my picture taken at the entrance of Abbey Road at the top of those iconic steps (and I still treasure it), but could not make it inside, even though I was in radio at the time. This sort of makes up for it. Love all the photos and stories and you got a couple of songs mastered at Abbey Road! Are you kidding me? Thanks for the tour, Dan! Well done!
love the pics of your wife leaning against the doors that say don't lean on the doors....
now I have to go back and look for that pic! lol
Dan. Here is a suggestion for a video
What ever happened to Dr. Demento. For those who might not know who this zany person is Dr. Demento born as Barret Eugene Hansen is the only DJ who played novelty records on the radio and introduced Weird Al Yankovick to the world
"You have got to be freaking kidding me"! 😂
Thanks Dan. I was born in 1957. As a kid, I lived in St John’s Wood for a while. I’d go past the studios often. Occasionally I’d see band members from Beatles, Pink Floyd etc. going in and out. Lords cricket ground is close by too. Another legendary place. How cool is that! 😁
Okay, having your song cut to vinyl AT ABBEY ROAD is peak coolness. Also, you and Mrs Monroe make a stunning couple - definitely you look like stars.😊
I've been outside the Abbey Road Studio which was pretty damn cool. Walked over the zebra crossing. I'm glad you got to look inside. You're a lucky guy.
Maybe the Mrs can be on with you on some videos! Your passion comes through LOUD and CLEAR! Amazing trip
She's the most amazing woman in the world :-)
@@MoviesMusicMonsters not to mention absolutely gorgeous, Dan! 🥰 You definitely topped her chart with that trip! 🙂
As a life long Beatle fan literally for 60 years, this would be like visiting a shrine. A unique view behind the scenes and info I never knew. Thanks Dan.
Studio 3 was where Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon was recorded.
From a Liverpool couple . That was fantastic Dan. Thanks bud. Regards Edd and Angie.
Not a die-hard Beatless fan but I do enjoy their music and the new tricks they did on each album. Paul is my favorite and he really opened up when he started WINGS. Ringo and George also made songs I still like. But there is no denying what they did for music and how a little studio was part of it.
Such an awesome and unique adventure. While not especially a Beatles fan, I would have reveled in a tour of what was then EMI simply for the fact that John Barry recorded many of his film scores here, including several of the James Bond scores.
Hi Dan. Awesome tour. I’m a photographer and had the privilege to spend a week in studio 2 doing documentary photography for Alexander Kariotis and the Rock Opera Orchestra. I was in awe as soon as I walked in the building. So much history there. It was amazing to see all that vintage gear just sitting in the hallways. Standing in Studio 2 had a familiar feeling to it. It looked just it did in all those Beatles documentaries I’ve seen over the years. I really love your channel. So many topics hit a cord with me. Keep up the awesome work! Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
That’s the kind of experience that most of us mere mortals can only dream about! Last time I was in London I had quite an extensive tour of the Abbey Road studios….parking lot 😊
You should do a short video on last night’s episode of Doctor Who entitled “The Devil’s Chord”. It takes place mostly inside EMI Studios during the time when the Beatles recorded their first album.
Brilliant report Dan! I’m a Yank living in the U.K… never been to Abbey Road, but you’ve got me chomping at the bit now! Must make a visit after all these years. Cheers!
Another excellent episode. By the way, its called a zebra (zehb-rah) crossing
OMG!! That's Fabulous.....it's not everyday you have a front row seat in the most famous recording studio in the world!! Hugs From Okinawa! :)
You lucky lad...lmao. From an old guitar players point of view you got to set foot on hallowed ground!!! Thank you sooooo much for taking us on that awesome journey!!!!!
2024 Election? Dan Monroe for President. His wife for VP!!
So happy for you Dan. Wow
DM's enthusiasm for everything is so remarkable!
Bloody hell Dan, how cool is your life!?
I heard that somebody wanted the cover of The Beatles next album to be a picture of the four lads on top of Mount Everest, but The Beatles said screw that and went outside and they took that famous picture of them walking in front of Abby Road studio. How cool is that !!!~
I went to the Abbey Road Studios in 2019, I peered through the gates and walked across the crossing a few times. I have to say I am so envious… but glad you got to go in and share your experience with all of us.
HEY! Don't lean on those doors!!!!
Great work, Dan. I grew up listening to the Beatles. Keep it up my friend
Very cool video! My friend Paul Dinletir has actually gotten the chance to record there a few times, he runs a company called Audiomachine
My mum's from Liverpool, but maybe 10 years too young have seen them. But I do consider it my city though, my great, great (lots of greats!) grandfather was governor of Liverpool,
Dan, your enthusiasm is infectious! Loved this one, thank you.
I'm mostly a Sci-Fi and Monsters fan of your show but, THIS show on Music was just as spine tingling for me. Great stuff!!!
That had to be one of the most AWESOME things to ever experience! I mean “ How cool is That”! I’m talking Arctic Cool! Thanks for sharing that tour with us! It will be the closest I will ever come to being there. Great job Dan!!
I love how excited you got making this video congrats. What a great Birthday present
Hey Mike :-) yeah it's super exciting. That's what's great about life. It's all exciting. Thanks for your support
This video was even better than I imagined! Excellent telling of the adventure you and your wife experienced!
Its when we get ' invited in' when we least expect it that makes the adventure even better!
This was your best video bar far. You can feel how great of an experience this must have been for you.
What an Awesome Abbey Road Experience ~ It was Destiny that You Two encountered Him, but Your Passion for The Beatles and the Music made Geoff Happy to Share that He is fortunate to work at the Shangra La of the Best Music Ever Made 🎶
Incredible experience... thank you so much for sharing. I can never get enough of the Beatles...
I miss that kind of stuff.
Very cool! I didn't see the better parts of London when I was in England, so this is a sweet watch!
Very Cool Dan. thanks for sharing your wonderful vacation. I could here the excitment in your voice when recalling the story. sounds like you had a wonderful time.. It's awesome you were able to go inside. Hope your next trip is just as memorable.
Speaking of Beatle books.
If you haven't read Geoff Emerick's,
it's a must. A treasure trove of info
for Beatlephiles. Glyn Johns' book
is another one 🤖👍
This had me smiling from ear to ear! I can really feel your joy! What a great time y'all had. Thanks for sharing with us all.
Your voice, just so perfect for this show👍
Should be doing voice work.
Ah... the good old days of analog recording.. you are right... it is not the same as today (partly why vinyl is making a comeback)...
Even if it's on Vinyl it's still recorded and mastered digitally. Very little analog recording goes on now days
@@FoulOwl2112 Yeah, which is why it loses something going digital since sound is an analog wave form to begin with...
Congrats to you and the Mrs.
there was a documentary on Abby Road a couple years ago called. "if these walls could sing" directed by Paul McCartney's daughter Mary McCartney. unfortunately is was release for Disney+
Unfortunate indeed.👎👎
You are someone special, you're the guy with one of the best TH-cam channels.
Love me some Beatles. That device that you were hugging I guess would be considered reel to reel but maybe I'm wrong. Anyway back in college in the early 1980s a buddy of mine had a reel to reel stereo that he could blast and play music for the block and if you looked out the window at our parties you would see people dancing on the sidewalk. We'd just wave them up to grab a beer. The sound from the thing was amazing.
Wow. Very cool.
How cool is that? :-)
@@MoviesMusicMonsters Extremely... I'm jealous.😁
Thanks, Dan. Another well put together video. I'm looking forward to the next one!
Thank you my friend, I'm working on tobor the robot right now from 1950s :-)
Now How Cool was THAT?? Great little adventure 😎
Great vid Dan, think I felt the same as you when I visited Sun studios in Memphis on your side of the pond
Awesome thanks for the tour. As a baby boomer who grew up with the Beatles It was awesome to see where all that great music was created thank you very much for this.
Well cool video as a mad Beatles myself 🎉
Abbey Road album was my favorite that was the only LP I bought along with lots of 45’s
What a trip of a lifetime. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this awesome experience with us!
Well done Dan. I’m glad you did more of London than the standard tourist normal subjects. Just a heads up hot off the press;coming out for release soon is my friends film about their manager called the golden touch. You heard it here first.
It’s all about, who you run into in life.
What an absolutely wonderful experience you had - am so happy for you - and thank you for being kind enough to share it with us. One of the most absorbing videos I have seen on TH-cam. Thank you!
Indeed, Movies, Music and Monsters.
WOW, this was really cool. Though i never was a Beatles fan, I have appreciated what they did for music history, I have always wondered about Abbey Road Studios. Thanks for sharing!!!
That was awesome, Dan! Thanks so much... the feeling you described is the same I had when I toured Hitsville in Detroit. Growing up there and loving Motown music as I do, it was an almost religious experience. Maybe that can be "the topic of another video"!
How awesome was that!!!
Haha :-) thanks
More of this please
You were blessed Dan. Great experience and thanks for having the peace of mind to document it…and now share it. Wow.
What an amazing guy to be so generous to some random stranger at the gate. Great video
very cool. jealous ! your approach to guy on the bike is THE right approach. Can't tell you how many doors that honest conversation style has worked to 'open doors' for me. Hey, whatta you got to lose !? BTW, yes, London is FANTASTIC. my favorite big city for many years :)
Knew it was going to be good but this exceed my expectations!! What a great trip. Thank you for sharing.
I went there 6 years ago. Unfortunately wasn’t ask inside. Thanks for the tour. Definitely a dream come true.
I'm no Beatles super fan. But I'm glad you got your wish and shared it. I wouldn't mind seeing it myself but i wouldn't be as excited. And that's ok.
Yeah, I don't do a lot of stuff on music on this channel but I'm going to start diving into soundtracks and such in the near future :-)
Dan this is probably the best video of yours in my humble opinion. Your love for history and music is something I have endless appreciation for and you certainly deliver my friend. And I must say you and your wife are an incredibly gorgeous couple man. You guys look like big time rock stars and walking and sitting and mingling among the folks at Abby road fits you guys so well!! Like you absolutely belong there. Congrats to your family for such an amazing experience and thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you so much for such kind words
Cool video
Thanks :-)
