Legendary music studio Abbey Road celebrated its 75th anniversary last night with a big celebrity bash.

The secret party took place at the studio, with a host of top artists and bands, in addition to both present and former staff.

The recording studio, which was made famous by the Beatles has seen a host of famous names work there, including the likes of Oasis, Radiohead and Blur.

The managing director of EMI Studios told the Independent: "Whenever I walk through the door I sense all the ghosts around me - Elgar, John Lennon, Syd Barrett - and the hairs stand up on the back of my neck...You don't get that in many jobs."
