So, was there only one place in London that EMI took pictures of their recording stars at? Just wondering.

Isn't that at one of EMI's buildings?

I'm rusty on my Beatles photo locations, but I think it may even be the same "EMI House" where, elsewhere, the Beatles shot the famous "Please Please Me" album cover.

Doesn't seem at all surprising that EMI would do photo shoots and press photo ops at their own building, and that both bands would appear at this building, especially considering these photos are what, about only three years apart?

Just look at how much more popular the Beach Boys were.  Not even one photographer for the Beatles!

EMI House, Manchester Square (demolished 1999 after standing empty for four years).
