What

What does the tour involve?

Where

What will I see?

Abbey Road. Taxi drivers won’t love you for it, but recreating the famous Beatles zebra crossing album cover is hard to resist
Addresses to die for associated with Jimi Hendrix; the flat where Mama Cass and Keith Moon both sang their last.
The studios where classics such as ‘Walk on the Wild Side,’ ‘Bohemian Rhapsody,’ ‘Let it Be’ and ‘War of the Worlds’ were recorded.
Famous Venues: 100 Club and the Marquee sit close to more esoteric locations – such as the Pulp’s Saint Martin’s College and the Beatles’ Number 3 Savile Row
Album Covers– many album cover photos were taken in London – ‘Ziggy Stardust’ (David Bowie) and ‘What’s the Story…. ‘(Oasis) are just two that can be reproduced.
Places. Carnaby Street, The Bag O’ Nails and the Legendary 2I’s Coffee Shop– the home of British Rock N Roll in the 1950s and of course Tin Pan Alley itself – Denmark Street – a haunt of many musicians from Elton John to the Pistols and still home to a heavy concentration of music shops.
