Beatles - Abbey Road album cover photo
I noticed the following several years ago, and I have not been able to find anyone else post or talk about it. If it has been spoken about before or noted, I would be interested in hearing about it.
When I look at the Abbey Road album cover photo, I noticed that each of the Beatles had a feature that the others did not. For example, the obvious is Paul being barefoot, but not so obvious that Ringo is the only one wearing a tie. I have listed the other features below, that a Beatle had, but the others did not. I don't know if The Beatles did it on purpose (they did with the Volkswagen Beatle in the photo), but considering that they were genius's with a sense of humour, maybe they did. I would be interested to hear everyone's opinion. Thank you.
