Abbey Road

This guide to Abbey Road in London opens on the morning of August 8, 1969, when a policeman held up traffic and photographer Iain Macmillan climbed a stepladder to shoot an album cover for a friend's band before the street reopened to traffic. You'll hear about the four men who crossed the zebra crossing again and again for his camera, and about the parked car nearby that fans would later read far too much into. Stand at the crossing itself, where tourists still stop traffic to walk it today.
