The world famous
Abbey Road Studios, where most notably the bulk of
The Beatles' albums were recorded (including its namesake, right) as well as
Pink Floyd's
Dark Side of the Moon;
Radiohead's
The Bends and
OK Computer; and the final albums by both
Elliott Smith (
Figure 8) and
Oasis (
Dig Out Your Soul), respectively, has been put up for sale by the cash-strapped
EMI label--owner of the legendary facilities--in an attempt to avoid defaulting on a major loan.
Here's a suggestion to someone who might be able to help:
Sir Paul, instead of just bitching about it and remaining on the sidelines like you did when you let
Michael Jackson buy your catalog and subsequently place "Revolution" in a Nike ad, buy the damn thing! 16 million dollars for a place that holds a big chunk of your legacy is not that bad a deal, right?
