Tiivistelmä: | On the eve of national elections, Britain is on a roll. Will it last? On a corner in the London village of Belsize Park stands the shell of a former church known as Lyndhurst Hall. Built in 1884 at the height of the British Empire, it once housed a missionary school linked to the legendary explorer Dr.David Livingstone. But as its congregation shrank, the massive sculpture fell into disrepair and was abandoned. Then, a group led by Bwatles producer George Martin and backed by Japan's Pioneer Electronic Corp. spent $25 million to transform the relic into Air Studios, a world-class temple of sound at the center of Britain's $4 billion music industry. |
