Like Blake Shelton, Jimmie Johnson got the Boys ‘Rounds Here at Legacy Motor Club and went to New York City. And the entire gang got together to recreate possibly the most iconic piece of music history.
Erik Jones, Noah Gragson, and Jimmie Johnson went to NYC to remake the album cover of Abbey Road.
The Beatles’ Abbey Road is easily the most well-recognized album cover ever. A simple picture of the four bandmates walking on the Zebra Crossing at, you guessed it, Abbey Road, London. But 17 incredible songs made with the iconic Beatles ring to it is an easy recipe for success, especially in the late and trippy 60s.

But even more than music, the album’s cover was one thing getting worldwide attention. In fact, people who don’t even know the band or any music can instantly tell “Abbey Road” by looking at it.
And Jimmie Johnson and the Legacy Motor Club gang felt like a random zebra crossing in NYC was the perfect time to recreate the iconic album cover.

Talking about the album would be pretty pointless because the only things to share are facts everyone knows. The album has remained an inseparable part of pop culture in the late 60s for very good reason. To see the gang pay homage to the album on their trip to New York is a pretty incredible thing. Especially in 2023, after all these years.
It just proves the album has held the test of time and will certainly continue to.
Fans had plenty to discuss after the move of Jimmie Johnson
The seven-time Cup Series Champion certainly got a lot of recognition for recreating the scene, as the fans had a lot to talk about. One even pointed out the nature of the city, “Living in NYC for 18 years, I can say confidently that they were definitely honked at several times trying to take that picture “
Another fan had some questions about the fourth member, “Where’s john”. Hmm, Johnson got some questions to answer.
Other reactions just discussed the post.
“Jimmie did you buy the boys matching coat’s”
“Should of got Richard out there”
“This has potential to be such an iconic photo for years to come”
