I also, just this morning, bought a paper label cassette of Sgt. Peppers 🌶 Lonely Hearts Club Band. Was that wrong?

I like the new Pepper but wouldn’t want to be without the original. Received the new White several weeks ago but haven’t listened yet.

The GM subtle changes don’t seem so subtle now and I fear his remaster will be relegated to nothing more than a curio of its time. It did make plenty of money and does sound great though.
