Recorded just before the band broke up, and released in September of 1969, Abbey Road became an instant classic from the opening track, Come Together, through classics such as the tender Something, the passionate rocker Oh! Darling, the optimistic Here Comes The Sun, the haunting Because, and through the infamous medley that featured Polythene Pam, Golden Slumbers, and Carry That Weight. No one had heard anything like it before or since.
Collective Unconscious presents a very faithful rendition of the entire Abbey Road album, infusing it with our own personal savor.

They also feature a set of Beatles classic tracks from earlier in their short career with songs like While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Paperback Writer, A Hard Days Night, We Can Work It Out and more…
