Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band vinyl review | Vinyl Rewind

[@nikoplaysguitar852]

My grandfather gave this album to me on my 18th birthday in 2010, but i wasn't as in to beatles at that time as i am now. But what i found out later is that, the album he gave me is an original 1967 issue with the yellow parlophone label on the vinyl.

Whaaaat Within you without you is fantastic! It's such a complex song and those drums. Oh god those drums just get me. This album is perfect the way it is, absolutely perfect. But if they really do re-release Sgt. Pepper's with Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane it'd be neat to see what Paul wanted the album to be.

[@WorldwideWyatt]

Jamie Hartley I agree, sucks that Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane weren't included. Doesn't even matter where you put them on the album, would have made it easily #1.

Let's not exaggerate. Lucy is pretty mediocre

[@robsonbass6058]

In a box of records I picked up at an estate sale for $10 I found an album with a white cover. I pulled it out and it had a Mobile Fidelity Labs "test disc" label, and grooves on only one side. It looked like it had never been touched by a needle. I played it. It was side one of Sgt. Pepper. This explains why someone had hand written, on the corner of the cover, "Pepper" in cursive. Sounds really good.

[@vincentharris7854]

Sinatra's "Songs for Young Lovers" was a concept album that predated "Pet Sounds" & "Sgt. Pepper." It was released in 1954. All the songs on this LP focused on a particular aspect of love.

[@jaustill237]

It's a good point, but the first Concept Album was Woody Guthrie's Dust Bowl Ballads (1940). Still the point being that Sgt. Pepper mark's the shift from when that was a novelty to when it became the norm.

[@benjamincox4211]

Vincent Harris Sinatra did another concept album later on called “Watertown” which is terrific

[@mintybadgerproductions]

Is that really a concept album though? I mean 90% of pop songs are above love and relationships anyway, even more so in the 50's. In the Wee Small Hours probably has a better claim to being Sinatra's first concept album. Either way I wouldn't actually consider Pet Sounds or Sgt. Pepper as concept albums, but rather albums that established a new approach to making albums that kicked off the modern album era.

[@witherblaze]

What I love about people's opinions regarding The Beatles and their best album, is that it's always diverse. No one will agree because the made so many amazing albums, and everyone's opinion has merit. My opinion always changes, but predominantly id go with Sgt Peppers

[@StillPlaysWithModelTrains1956]

There was this rumor floating around in the late 60s that Paul McCartney was dead and if you opened the Sargent Pepper's album to the lyric section inside, you would see a photo of the Fab Four, but Paul was standing with his back towards the camera. If you look to Paul's left, George Harrison's has his finger pointing towards the lyric line "Wednesday morning at five O'clock..." The story was that somewhere embedded in the album there was a secret phone number. If you found it, you were to call on Wednesday morning at Five O'clock and someone would tell you the time and place of Paul's funeral... Genius marketing in my book!

[@boosuedon]

This has been deemed the greatest album ever made, not so much for the music on it, but the way the music was made! Martin and the Beatles pretty much invented techniques used to record these tracks. They would vary recording speeds to obtain a specific sound, layer the recordings, obtain exotic instruments, again to obtain a specific sound. The final chord in "A Day In The Life" was obtained by using 5 pianos, an organ, all struck simultaneously with a sound engineer at the volume controls to get that chord to drag out almost twice as long as a regular piano would. What we hear is a sustained chord from a piano, but we don't appreciate that what that piano is doing is impossible for a single piano to do! "Mr. Kite" is, in itself a phenomenon. The album changed the way producers and bands made albums. Brian Wilson (Beach Boys) said this as well as many others.

About radio air play. It was not played as much when it came out except on the first few and far between FM underground stations. Top 40 radio still ruled and The Monkees were getting the air. This was an ALBUM phenomenon. Parties were thrown to listen to it. Eventually within a year or two radio began catching up. It's important to remember back then radio was always behind the times(except aforementioned FM stations) The coolest stuff got listened to by albums.

[@Henriqueleal0609]

[@Gigidag77]

The "gibberish" track doesn't actually fade. It is supposed to continuously loop as the actual runout groove. On CD releases they obviously had to put an end to this track somehow and decided to fade it out instead of just *bang* gone. On later (or non-parlophone) vinyl releases they omitted this track or did the same fading thing as on the cd releases, because the timing to get the run-out groove sounding right was hard and time consuming to get right during production.

[@sammcbride2149]

Well done review, as always. I've always thought of the Sgt Pepper album as the Beatles blowing the cover off their collective genius and just....absolutely....showing off. "OK, kiddies, get ready for this one!" Even the bright colorful outfits are the perfect outfits for showing off. "We hope you will enjoy the show!" And what a show it was...and still is. And always will be.

My daughter lives about 500 yards away from Penny Lane.and I went to visit Strawberry Fields about 5 years ago which is quite close as is John Lennons old house on Menlove Avenue.

Without Pet Sound's by The Beach Boys, we would not have Sgt Pepper by The Beatles yes. However, without Sgt Pepper, Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys would not have gone insane.

[@nigelalicetufnelbowie3899]

My Urban Exploration They were influenced by avant-garde recording artists like AMM, Karlheinz Stockhausen, John Cage and Morton Subotnick as well as Frank Zappa/The Mothers of Invention "Freak Out", which he would grow to resent 1960s counterculture and their shortcomings ultimately contradicts their sets of morals.

[@nigelalicetufnelbowie3899]

'ultimately contradicting their set of morals' good subject matter to parody though.

[@nigelalicetufnelbowie3899]

Brian became fundamentally depressed after reading lukewarm reviews of Pet Sounds from critics through press notes. He kept a close relationship with the Fab Four during this period, even taking a plane to their studio when they first started recording for Strawberry Fields Forever and Paul, who munched on celery for the benefit of his song Vegetables, showed Brian a demo of She's Leaving Home. He would find anything around the house, using it for an individual sound effect, later overdubs were made when he finally had the chance to approach the mixing desk. Although, he had lost hope in the project and wished to not dwell on it any longer, Capitol demanded a new release. When they finally got their wish, most, if not all traces of the original was absent. Yes, including lyrics and chord structure.

[@MegaRaven100]

*Evan Miles* Frank was an arrogant wanker. Period. He later admitted that 'Sgt Peppers is actually very good' but he could not say so at the time. Frank used people and then threw them away like trash. I love some of his music but learned to hate the man by the late 70's as his asshole side dominated everything by then. Highly intelligent, brilliant and driven he nevertheless lacked any concern for others and it shows in his music. He could NEVER really judge his own music and put out more complicated music crap than any in history- Only the Grateful Dead have more mediocre material available than Frank but at least they are bootlegs of less than inspired live performances. However there is also more good stuff from them and the Beatles than Frank!

[@nigelalicetufnelbowie3899]

MegaRaven100 I know, he refused to play at Monterey when he was invited because he felt that the rest of the bands taking up the preceding slots "were inferior to him", he would sabotage his other band members, by significantly altering the former arrangements to his songs, saying "you can't do anything right!", just to throw them away shortly afterward. Question: Why would you hire these people for them to waste their talent, and to get chewed out every day in the studio? Might as well just take up something that fits your own preferable tastes. I saw an interview that was taken around '71, he was asked about "women's lib", calling the whole thing in retrospect, "meaningless", saying it was just a fad. I wouldn't want to be part of his band, since most of his titles were arbitrary in regards to his songwriting, telling others who question him, "I guess you just don't get it." Calling out musicians for being possessed, and the majority of the right wing religious crowd still believes that MK ultra bullshit. Believing in limited government (which I can be okay with, since it's not my problem) but we need guidance, without the things we take for granted, like gov't checks that come in the mail and free health care, which is currently non-existent, WE WOULD BE LOST. I collect CDs and vinyl, but let me just say that I wouldn't be the one, wasting my money, though from a distance it looks like I'm doing this to support the artist, but no, I'm doing it for the advantage of people like corporate Frank, where I'm spending my money, it's only a small percentage of a large chain of greed, either that those who are knee deep in debt are paying their due with my dollars. I can totally understand that his "asshole side of him overshadowed his music," because we had a Democratic president in office, and unlike Frank, he doesn't spend all of his time sitting on his ass giving everyone a mouthful of his biased critique. This was a time of constant change, and compared to the beginning of the decade, the record goes to show that a great amount of progress was undertaken. Paricularly italicizing race relations, nonetheless a slowly developing bond between other countries that took years to come into fruition. Growth and maturity, that is barely present in the man's personality. In stark contrast, consistently more alike of a quantum leap than you will choose to partake in more or less of thirty years. Rather to refuse that what's in front of you isn't true.

I bought the original '67 album in stereo and had never really noticed the sleeve mentioned in the video. Don't remember ever having the insert. It would be nice to know more about the selection of characters on the front, as well as their placement. One thing I just noticed that struck me as rather odd is the image of Sonny Liston (boxer who fought Cassius Clay-aka Mohamed Ali) instead of Ali. They had visited Ali's training site in Miami when they were first on tour in the US in '64 and had some well known photos taken with him in the gym. Liston was viewed by many as a dim witted brute and Ali especially furthered this notion with his scathing poetic proclamations.

[@MegaRaven100]

Abbey Road does have a very good sound. Too bad it was the first really disappointing LP that in every way showed a band in decline. I think the whole second side is a long bore of trivial little songs that go nowhere ('Because' is nice) . I like two of the Lennon tracks with the first standing out., Come together'. Sgt Peppers is so much more intense and creative, a band at its heights breaking new ground in psych rock. Superior in so many ways. For me the Beatles ended with 'The Beatles' (White Album) should have been their swansong just as Led Zeppelin should have quit in 1975 when 'Presence' came out. That's why they say the good die young.True it may be but a lot of time this dying means we never see the decline (Hendrix, Doors etc)!

True The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds influenced Paul in the making of Pepper, (especially God Only Knows) but Revolver influenced Brian Wilson in the making of Pet Sounds. And so it goes. Re: Beatles vs Stones. They still are competitors in my opinion- I think Mick takes the guys out on tour, in part, because Paul and Ringo still tour, and vice-versa. Who will stop first? But they were in fact good friends. Not only did the Stones have photos of the Beatles hidden on the cover of Satanic, John and Paul added background vocals on one of the Satanic tracks- We Love You. John also had Keith in his Plastic Ono Band concert with Eric and Mitch Mitchell, and so on.

Roger Watters ,Pink Floyd, admitted that the band happened to be on tour when Sgt. Pepper came out. BBC radio had announced they would play the album in its entirety at 7pm Friday. The band was on the road at the time and they demanded that their driver pull over at a rest stop so they could hear it clearly. When they finally pulled off the road they discovered the rest stop was packed with other motorists doing the same thing they were. So The band went out and convinced everyone to open their doors so they could all listen to it together.

It was a mono world still in 1967 and it does take time to make a quality mono mix but if your mono mix is properly balanced it makes making a stereo mix easier and can be done be quickly. This is why EMI engineers were left to do them without much input from the Beatles. They already did the hard part.

Interesting, I never heard that take on it. Makes sense though

[@jacob_n_r_z8755]

When i compare the original stereo mix to the remaster i gotta say that i like the remasted better. Because it has more bass it has more dept and when you listen to it with headphones it even better

my aunts who were only 3 or 4 years older then me and they had had this album in 1967 , i just remember it sounding kind of scary but you heard it everywhere - to this day it still brings me back plus the news was saying paul was dead which kind of freaked me out as a 6 year old kid they kept it up on the piano so everyone could see it but they wouldnt play it because they thought it was so special and everybody just stared at it like a religious experience or something and everyone wanted to borrow it , once in awhile though theyd play it and i remember everybody that was there just sat there listening to it like zombies - seems like yesterday

[@dianejames1625]

by the way the funny smell that always seemed to be there now makes me think they were all high on pot and that probobly explains why they acted like zombies !!!!

You should do a vinyl review of Led Zeppelin IV

[@FantomWireBrian]

I hope you can find out what happened to the painting that your mother made one day, it sounds really nice.

Zac Fraizer: Weird, maybe because I don't usually listen with headphones on, I never noticed it or yeah, maybe it's a bad mix you got. I'm with you on Mr. Kite, seems a bit like filler (or a bside), would rather have had Penny Lane or Strawberry Fields Forever. Fixing a hole was a little odd to me.

[@FrazThe]

Yeah, those songs would fit perfectly. Honestly, before I had listened to Sgt. Peppers, I always assumed "Strawberry Fields" was on it. And relistening to "Fixing a Hole," I agree, the song is kinda weird. I think its teetering between being sort of melancholic, like a ballad (based on the melody), but then the chorus is somewhat jubilant, and its confusing. Plus, the mixing on the multi-tracked vocals is a little obnoxious.

[@dexterscott7017]

+Zac Frazier (Etc.) listen to fixing a hole with gread headphones and some hallucinogens.....your opinion of the song will change drastically...or so i've heard.

[@FrazThe]

+Dexter Scott It's definitely grown on me, without the need for hallucinogens

[@VinylRewind]

+Dexter Scott haha, I will have to try that some time

[@hayizmehs1252]

They should have replaced she's leaving home with penny lane I think

[@justink5585]

I have an original mint copy of the LP with the cutouts

[@jaustill237]

Capital Record versions did have the run off (hidden) track, but you need an older or much newer version. Many of the repressings (especially from the 70s and early 80s) were missing it.

[@ROCKNROLLFAN]

I found this cassette tape at the valley missions over a year and a half ago for just .25cents

[@jeenkzk5919]

"if you find a vinyl copy be sure it comes with the cardboard cutout and the paper sleeve"....Good Luck!!! I've never seen it until I watched this video! I've only heard about it!

[@Bighuge12]

There's a restaurant on the Boulevard in buffalo and they serve a meal called the sergeant pepper and a meal called the Ringo

[@desiderium3243]

I have a 1971 repressing that has the yellow stereo banner and Apple 🍏 label on the record

[@toasted_heretic]

There is nothing new in this "review", but it's still a really good watch. Top bananas to the presenter.

[@wtfemtf]

Go to Spotify if you want the cool looping gibberish thing at the end.

[@alfiec2103]

I got a copy of sgt pepper for £10 with everything in it all the cut outs were there and I still have it
