Rick Edwards 20 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Doing a spot of music research for work Who'd have thought..... 19th Jan 1967 , The Beatles began recording 'A Day In The Life' at Abbey Road studios London, recording four takes of the new song. According to Lennon, the inspiration for the first two verses was the death of Tara Browne, the 21-year-old heir to the Guinness fortune who had crashed his Lotus Elan on 18 December 1966 in Redcliffe Gardens, London.
