Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band!


Roundabout

Recommended Posts

Well, it's obviously one of the most important albums in the history of popular music!  Completely different from anything that came before it, and groundbreaking.  An absolute masterpiece!  But of course, if you like this, may I suggest you should also check out two other albums from the same period that were also extremely influential: The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, which was one of the main inspirations for Sgt. Pepper, and The Moody Blues' Days of Future Passed.  Three different styles, all experimental and hugely influential, the culmination of decades of development in pop music moving in different directions and setting the stage for a huge variety of other ideas in the years to come.

Worst album ever!

 

I joke. Arguably their best album (definitely the one with the most massively recognizable tracks) though I personally prefer the vibe of the White Album (or "self-titled: The Beatles" for the pedantic music nerds among us).
