But McCartney soon transitions to her father, who provides anecdotes about the songs recorded there and what instruments contributed to those compositions. We get a few biographical notes about Abbey Road: How it was founded as EMI studios, how George Martin became attached to the company, and what was initially recorded there before it became the permanent home of the Beatles. Unfortunately, her film falls short of the example set by Greg 'Freddy' Camalier's incisive recollection of FAME studios in " Muscle Shoals." While Camalier's vision thoughtfully parses the mythology, scandals, and music to offer a complete portrait of what made those four walls so special, McCartney becomes too bogged down in purely rendering a jukebox-driven recounting of events. And yet, the documentary, coming to Disney+, captures the soul and the earworm tunes that emanated from the studio's surroundings with an endearing ease. In "If These Walls Could Sing," McCartney slips nearer to recounting her father's history with the space.
