Review: “If These Walls Could Sing” – Tribute to Abbey Road Studios
The near-accident anecdote
Mary McCartney, a photographer, director and daughter of Paul and Linda McCartney, told S-Magazine the incident happened outside Abbey Road Studios while she was filming footage for her new documentary about the world-famous studio.
She says: “The part where the car almost hit him at the crosswalk was so funny. When we left the studio I said, ‘I’m filming you [auf dem Zebrastreifen]’ And he walked over and the car didn’t stop for him at all,” says the filmmaker.
Fans still regularly visit the famous crossing in St. John’s Wood to recreate the Fab Four’s iconic album cover – often to the chagrin of London’s taxi and bus drivers, McCartney says.
If These Walls Could Sing traces the studio’s long history and includes interviews with McCartney and Ringo Starr, as well as Elton John, Nile Rodgers, Noel and Liam Gallagher, Roger Waters, Celeste, George Lucas and more.
