The album feels even more like a collection of singles (instead of an actual movie soundtrack) than Help! or A Hard Day's Night, but maybe that's because every song sounds like it could have been a hit single--with the natural exception of the goofy/weird instrumental "Flying". Even George's "Blue Jay Way" paints a vivid sound-portrait in fascinating detail. And although the goofy TV movie may have been mostly Paul's baby, this album features the two 45 rpm masterpieces that sum up the quintessential best of Lennon and McCartney at this stage of their development: Paul's "Penny Lane" and John's "I Am the Walrus". --Jim Emerson

Great accompliment to Sgt Pepper
Review date: 2010-03-26 Rating: 8 out of 10
You can't really go wrong with this album.....as well as the 6 original songs from the EP you also get the singles and b-sides released either side of Sgt Pepper. If anything, this collection is a lot more consistent than Sgt Pepper.....all 6 tracks from the original EP are of a high standard, especially I Am The Walrus and the title track. There is also the chilled-out instrumental Flying, the atmospheric George Harrison song Blue Jay Way and the Macca standards Fool On The Hill and Your Mother Should Know. The singles speak for themselves - Strawberry Fields Forever, Penny Lane and All You Need Is Love were classics in 1967 and still hold up as classics today. Hello Goodbye was never a favourite of mine but Baby You're A Rich Man is a great Lennon b-side. Well worth buying.
2009 CD: Poor remastering.

2009 CD: Poor remastering.
The CD may reveal new details on portable devices or in a car; however, it is a rather frustrating experience on a decent kit. Dynamic range apparently is severely compressed; as a result the sound is subjectively unpleasant - loud and tedious.
This release does not do the justice to the album.
