Before Sgt. Pepper's, no one seriously thought of rock music as actual art. That all changed in 1967, though, when John, Paul, George and Ringo (with "A Little Help" from their friend, producer George Martin) created an undeniable work of art which remains, after 3-plus decades, one of the most influential albums of all time. From Lennon's evocative word/sound pictures (the trippy "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds", the carnival-like "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite") and McCartney's music hall-styled "When I'm 64", to Harrison's Eastern-leaning "Within You Without You", and the avant-garde mini-suite, "A Day in the Life", Sgt. Pepper's was a milestone for both 1960s music and popular culture in general. --Billy Altman

A Good Album
Review date: 2010-06-15 Rating: 8 out of 10
I bought this album because I thought I ought to have something by the world's most famous pop group, even though I am not a fan of them, I much prefer Wings and Paul's Solo recordings. However this is a good album, with songs quite differrent to their singles. When I'm 64, is one of those tracks and sounds like it could have come from the 1940's. Other good songs here are Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, For The Benefit Of Mr Kite and the title track, Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. I maybe unusual, but I like this better than mamy of their smash hits and am glad to have it among my record collection.
Cool!

Such a great cd, it sounds just like the original LP but so much clearer. The music is timeless and any Beatles fan would be glad to listen to this.

I can see why people like this so much but in my mind it needs a little more before being the greatest album of all time but it's still really good. The 1st 3 songs are amazing the rest after that are well worth lisiting to. With good lyrics and a nice sound.
Genius

Deserves it's reputation as a seminal album. I'd already heard more than half the tracks but it's the less familiar tracks that make this worth owning - Getting Better, and Fixing a Hole being 2 examples
