50 years since the U.S. release of ‘Abbey Road’

The Beatles released their album “Abbey Road” in the U.S. 50 years ago on Tuesday. To mark the anniversary, a deluxe edition of the album has been released — featuring many outtakes.

One outtake is an early version of the famous Abbey Road medley. It includes the song “Her Majesty,” which eventually became a hidden track at the end of the album.
