Former Beatle Paul McCartney paid a visit to his old stomping grounds this week, returning to the famed Abbey Road.
In a video posted Monday, McCartney was caught making a solo strut across the road, in an apparent hat-tip to the iconic band's 1969 record, E! News reported.

Aside from being by himself, McCartney donned a totally different attire from the nearly 50-year-old album cover. This time around, the rocker sported a white-collared shirt, maroon pants and sandals with a blazer draped over his shoulder instead of the classic dark suit and bare feet.
