Crossword Genius

Record of Turkish governor visiting in foreign lands (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abbey road

'record' is the definition.
(Abbey Road is an album by The Beatles)

'turkish governor visiting in foreign lands' is the wordplay.
'turkish governor' becomes 'bey' (term for a governor in the Ottoman Empire).
'visiting' indicates putting letters inside.
'in foreign lands' becomes 'abroad' (abroad means in a different country).
'bey' placed inside 'abroad' is 'ABBEY ROAD'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for abbey road that I've seen before include "Beatles album - recording studio" , "Thoroughfare of Beatles fame" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
