Sorry but the main thing I think about Sgt Pepper was it was the end of flower power and the start of great music starting the following year with The Beatles White Album and such tracks as Helter Skelter....

No one can deny that the White Album contains some marvellous tunes. Still, IMHO the Beatles peaked in 1967: Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane (February), Sgt. Pepper's (June), and (last but not least) Magical Mystery Tour (December). But Revolver (1966) wasn't bad either, nor was Abbey Road.

Very good programme on BBC2 this evening 'Sgt Pepper's musical revolution' (should be on the iplayer)

I still have a Sgt Pepper Vinyl picture disc.

During the period that the Beatles were recording Sgt Pepper, Pink Floyd were also in Abbey Road recording their first album 'The piper at the gates of dawn'
