Working at Abbey Road studios, London, Paul McCartney began work on his new song Penny Lane, recording six takes of keyboard tracks and various percussion effects. The song's title is derived from the name of a street near Lennon's house, in the band's hometown, Liverpool. McCartney and Lennon would meet at Penny Lane junction in the Mossley Hill area to catch a bus into the centre of the city.
