Title: Only one place in all of London? Post by: petsite on January 21, 2016, 11:20:52 AM So, was there only one place in London that EMI took pictures of their recording stars at? Just wondering.

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?
