They had to fit in the square format of the cover, so rather than have them all in a line, I put Ringo in the bottom right corner, since he was the last to join the group. He was also the shortest.

He arranged us in a hotel corridor: it was very un-studio-like. The corridor was very dark, and there was a window at the end, and by using this heavy source of natural light coming from the right, he got that very moody picture which most people think he must have worked at forever and ever. But it was only an hour. He sat down, took a couple of rolls, and that was it.

Several of the songs were hardly written before we went into the studio. In some cases, we'd just got the general idea for a number. For instance, the middle eight might be missing. Our recording manager George Martin would pop out for a drink or something, and in the meantime we would finish it off. When he came back, we'd have quickly added words and a bit more tune.

—George Harrison, 1964
