Why Don’t We Do It in the Abbey Road?

Well, it seems that Abbey Road Studios aren’t up for sale, after all.

Even if it were, Andrew Lloyd Webber promised over $50 million to buy the place.

Meanwhile, Paul McCartney will be playing Phoenix and Los Angeles next month.


Here’s a bit of Paul at the brand-new Citi Field in New York last summer, before we saw him at ancient Fenway Park in Boston.

Prue News

Prudence Bury has put her home in France up for sale. Prue says it’s time to downsize, but “Oh how I hate that expression.” Here is a link where you can see her property, which includes a separate guest/vacation house, called a gîte.

What a lovely place! The farm house was restored by Prue, and she did all of the decorating, of course.

What was their fashion line?

The awareness in America of Swinging London in the 60’s is evident in these guest appearances on one of the classiest old game shows, “What’s My Line?” First, Prue Bury’s friend and former boss, fashion designer Mary Quant, then their hairdresser Vidal Sassoon, followed by one of the first supermodels, Jean Shrimpton.

Prue Bury à la TV Française

Kudos to Microsoft’s Bing for coming up with this link that Google missed, about the Beatles Weekend held in Ouistreham, Normandy, France back in November. But I wish there were more of Prue in the video.
