This bit of news really doesn’t surprise me, but then again it is still quite astonishing.<\/p>\n

“Abbey Road,” The Beatles’ iconic final album, was remastered and reissued recently to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the album’s initial release.<\/p>\n

Then we hear that it shot to No. 1 on the United Kingdom record charts — a mere 49 years and 252 days after it hit the top of the charts the first time.<\/p>\n

Wow! What does this say? Well, it tells me that the super group’s music still holds up. It remains relevant for so many generations of music lovers.<\/p>\n

Two members of the group — John Lennon and George Harrison — are deceased. Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are making new music to this day. Sir Paul is still performing before huge crowds with a show that blows one away; I know, having attended a concert recently at Globe-Life Park down the road in Arlington, Texas.<\/p>\n

Still, The Beatles appeal to many millions of young people and, oh yeah, old folks like me.<\/p>\n

Rock on, fellas!<\/p>\n\n
