it's interesting, they have multiple entries for some albums depending on what was on the cover when released, toronto band martha and the muffins have one listing in toronto for their album echo beach, and another in england for the same album because they used a beach there for the uk copy
I tried looking for a different version of the original, but couldn't find anything interesting.
I loved the ones that were put up though. Specially the Simpons' one since I am a big fan and the one where they were all dead-like. hehe funny.
Once I saw in an album of a friend a very personal version, where him and his friends clicked themselves just like in the picture. I though it was clever at the time.
Anyhow, I reeeally just wanted to say hi to you. so, Hi !
I remember having been there in 1963 (or 1964) for the first time.
And wondered, when I saw the album cover in 1969 (because I really couldn't imagine that it was THAT place).
I saw some dozen photos recently in a magazine ...
What a surprise! The lady with the lips!!!! (Except you've changed avatars!)
How good to see you again, superjuly!
So what are you up to these days? What's new?

@Walter Hinteler,
No, it doesn't look anything like the same place, Walter! You're right.
A lot more rampant tree growth by 1969 & no yellow Beetle (VW) in sight!

I'd show you the picture of my 18 yr old daughter and her friends but she'd kill me. She was in London two months ago. She and her friends are big Beatles fans. So, of course the sought out Abbey Rd. They took the picture and were almost killed. Apparently it's a really busy road and the locals are bored with all the tourists, use 'em as target practice....
C'est la vie....
...The crossing, in St John’s Wood, north London, has attracted increasing numbers of sightseers in recent years, and figures obtained from Westminster Council under the Freedom of Information Act reveal a rising number of accidents in the area.
Now, councillors in the ward are calling for changes. They are in discussions with the council’s traffic department over ways to make the crossing and the nearby junction safer.
Among the options is to simply dig up the black and white stripes and flashing yellow beacons and install another crossing further along the road.
