During their "Mad Day Out" photo session at various London locations (28 July 1968), the Beatles stopped at St Pancras Old Church and Gardens. This secluded park yielded no less than nine photo opportunities. These are linked here by video of the present day, as if walking from site to site.

Fascinating. I love the Beatles Mad Day Out. This was very well done, juxtaposing the original photos with the park as it currently is. I must go there next time I'm in London. All the Victorian buildings give this part of the Mad Day Out a certain Gothic feel.

Great recreation of their ‘mad day out’ at St Pancras Old Church… it’s actually a very cool place to visit, even though it’s in a really busy area, it kind of sits in its own dreamy little oasis which has a timeless, peaceful vibe about it!

I used to leave in Camden Town in 2000s and taking the footpath of Regent's canal in the way to King Cross/St.Pancras to that church , to read a book, papers..... this place was so relaxing and enjoyable in the weekdays to my mind. And looking now, these pictures of the fab four there make my day. RIP John and George!

I’m for ever chasing. The Beatles around looking. And reading. Into their fascinating. History and I did this walk with the aid of the mad day out book so when I came across this I watched and went wow how very clever what you have done. It’s allmost bought them back to like 3 D style love the pictures their voices and camera. Thus is really a great watch 🙏

Good job. It is like a dream the way you move the camera around, then settle on something, and The Beatles appear and are gone, all with mysterious White Album music. I remember the crowd photos in the gatefold of the Blue Album Greatest Hits, my first exposure to Beatles music.

This is another locale that I've always wondered 'where' the photos were taken. It's very cool how it doesn't seem to change much with time. Here in California (where I live) everything is altered, remodeled, torn down, obliterated & added on-to. The only things that stay the same are official 'historical' places / buildings with plaques. Even some of those change. England is so awesome & I say that not as an over-used teemager phrase. The UK really IS awesome.🙂

I'm from South East London & I'm sorry to tell you most of London HAS changed enormously since the 60's & not for the better either. Of course there are still some great historic places to visit (throughout the country, not just London) especially if your from the States. There are some hidden gems off the tourist trail in London & you are welcome to come & find them🇬🇧

It seems there is some confusion as to the exact date of this photo shoot, or perhaps there were different photo sessions. In the booklet that goes with the early greatest hits of the Beatles, the attribution states, "St. Pancras, Old Church, London, 22 July 69." I'd really like to know the factual date when these photos were taken. It matters. Let's get the facts straight. Only one date can be correct; however, unlikely as it is, both could be incorrect. At this particular time in the history of popular music, a year makes a big difference, because we know what preceded it and what was coming. This was a seminal moment.

I got off the train from Paris at that station... if only I'd known 😃. Btw, this video seems to have a fuller version of the Revolution 9 piano piece, is the major-key section also part of the same piece? Do you know what the piece is? There seems to be other Revolution 9 source material there too... and was George's 'one more time' spliced in from 'Piggies' or is it source material too?
@pietschreuders8311

Yes, the piece is Robert Schumann's "Symphonische Etüden" Op. 13 (nr. XII: ‘Allegro brillante’). See "How The Analogues re-created Revolution 9" in FURORE Magazine 24 (2019), p. 82.

@@pietschreuders8311 Yeah, that's a tricky one. It seems that there's a mistake (at 0:16?) in it so it's not a released classical piece. What's interesting about the Schumann snippet is that it's symmetrical in pitch so that it sounds similar when played forwards and backwards. If you are interested in more details about Revolution 9, this might interest you (the Schumann is listed as unknown): search for 'Revolution number 9' by Ian Hammond
