The album was of course, named after the London road in St. John's Wood that houses the E.M.I. studios (although, at one time it was going to be titled, "Everest").
The cover photograph was taken on Friday 8th August 1969 by Iain Macmillan at 10 o'clock in the morning.
For these quick snaps the police held up the traffic for 10 minutes as six pictures were taken (in two of which Paul wore his sandals).
Along with the Sgt. Peppers cover, The Beatles once again managed to create something so iconic that it has been imitated many times.

Side 1: Come Together / Something / Maxwell's Silver Hammer / Oh Darling / Octopus Garden / I Want You (She's So Heavy)
Side 2: Here Comes The Sun / Because / You Never Give Me Your Money / Sun King / Mean Mr Mustard / Polythene Pam / She Came In Through The Bathroom Window / Golden Slumbers / Carry That Weight / The End

LABELS: EXCELLENT/NEAR MINT
Both labels are clean and fresh with only one spindle trace on Side Two, none on Side One.
The Side One label has a mark - either from an old label or from manufacture and therefore given an EX grade
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT+/NEAR MINT
Both surfaces shine like-new with nothing but a couple of harmless marks on Side One, Side Two is unmarked
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays perfectly throughout with a beautifully deep, rich, warm sound and my play-check at volume found nothing of note to fault.
No clicks, ticks or pops or even any surface.
An exceptionally clean player and overall great copy
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
A really fine example with a deep glass-like gloss to the laminate front and back and practically unworn edges.
There is some soft creasing to the extremities and a tiny bump on the spine but all text is clear and bold.
The original Apple inner sleeve has a small tear top corner but is otherwise sound
