Apart from the abuse im gonna recieve for insinuating that macca isnt good for much else these days, thought people might like to know that abbey road studios is being sold by EMI to pay for a few hefty debts.

If I won the lottery.....

Surely 30 million quid is pocket change for Sir Paul?

it doesn't actually say that Paul is one of the consortium lined up to save it, he's just commenting that he hope it will be saved. Well so do we all. There's a quid in the post.

Radio 6 were saying this morning that Andrew Lloyd Webber was putting up the cash.

I just had a text from my guitarist, who works for the National Trust, saying they are trying to raise a fund to buy it - actually looks like they are after a pointer whether to or not [url="http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-global/w-news/w-latest_news/w-news-should-national-trust-save-abbey-road-studios.htm"]HERE[/url]

After some of the tosh he's forced into the public sphere I think buying Abbey Road is the least Lloyd Webber can do in recompense

[The Funk]

So, who does Paul McCartney know who's had a long association with the place? Sir George Martin, that's who!
