It was 40 years ago today.....

Personally, I preferred the early Beatles when they were playing what George Harrison once called "those same ten dopey tunes". Oh well, you can't deny the significance of Sgt. Pepper to the musical development of the Beatles and others, and the context of the album in its time. I guess I'll have to pull it out and give it a spin on the 'table tonight.

"A splendid time is guaranteed for all............"

What I remember about the album is when they played the opening track SPLHCB whether it was AM/FM they always let it run into "I get by with a little help from my friends." To this day i don't believe there was a song where two songs were run concurrent as one. It was like a mini opus. My dad loved this song esp. when Ringo came in RIP dad .

Sgt.Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band was one of my favorite groups of all time, right up there with The Dukes of Stratosphear, or maybe The Hindu Love gods! ;^)

Seriously, one of the mind blowing Lps of my youth. I think we first listed to a Mono copy. Very cool. *****

My Dad dug the album too. I think that was one of my first records we found common ground on.

Anybody running the OMR UHQR?

Happy Listening!

I did not know about the 40 yr anniverary of Sgt Pepper but something made me put on "Concert for Bangladesh". I admired George a lot. Now I gotta find the Pepper. Thanks.
