Michael Rylander points us to a great visualization Charting the Beatles. Designed by Michael Deal. For the Song of Keys diagram above he explains “The differences between each pictograph reflect the different relationships between songs within each album. For example, the pictograph for Abbey Road hints at the tonal architecture of the Abbey Road Medley, as the pictograph’s shape has a more narrow pull towards A-major/minor and the home key of C-major”.
