RELEASED ON 1st JUNE, 1967, “SGT. PEPPER’S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND”, THE BAND’S
EIGHTH LP BECAME THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE “SUMMER OF LOVE” BUT ITS APPEAL
IS TIMELESS. WORK HAD BEGUN ON THE RECORDING IN LATE 1966 AND AT ONE STAGE
IT WAS THOUGHT THAT. BOTH “PENNY LANE ” AND “STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER ”
WOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED BUT WHEN THESE WERE RELEASED AS A SINGLE IN FEBRUARY,
THAT IDEA WAS ABANDONED. “REVOLVER ” HAD ONLY JUST BEEN COMPLETED IN TIME
PRIOR TO THE BAND FLYING OFF ON YET ANOTHER TOUR. NOW THAT TOURING WAS
BEHIND THEM MORE TIME COULD BE SPENT WRITING AND RECORDING . . . BETWEEN
NOVEMBER 1966 AND APRIL, 1967, THEY SPENT OVER 400 HOURS IN THE STUDIO - A FAR
CRY FROM THE “PLEASE PLEASE ME ” DAYS. OF COURSE THE MUSIC WAS MORE COMPLEX
AND NOW THAT TOURING WAS OVER, THERE WAS NO NEED TO CONSIDER WHAT COULD BE
WHAT COULD BE REPRODUCED IN FRONT OF A LIVE AUDIENCE --- IN THE STUDIO
“THE BEATLES” ENCOURAGED GEORGE MARTIN TO ACHIEVE 'THE IMPOSSIBLE' AND
IN TURN, GEORGE AND THE ENGINEERS WOULD FIND INNOVATIVE WAYS OF REALISING
THIS DESPITE STILL USING ONLY FOUR-TRACK EQUIPMENT. FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN
THE U.K., NO SINGLE WAS LIFTED FROM THE ALBUM AND THIS ALSO HELD TRUE IN THE U.S.
THE ALBUM WAS ALSO NOT BANDED, ENCOURAGING THE LISTENER TO PLAY IT ALL
THE WAY THROUGH, PAUSING ONLY TO TURN THE DISC OVER. THE GLOSSY DOUBLE
WALLET FEATURED THE GUYS IN THEIR PEPPER UNIFORMS SURROUNDED BY IMAGES
OF PEOPLE THEY EITHER ADMIRED OR WERE INTERESTED IN WHILST ON THE BACK OF
SLEEVE THERE WERE THE LYRICS TO ALL THE SONGS. INSIDE EACH SIDE OF THE WALLET
WERE OTHER SURPRISES, A CARD FEATURING VARIOUS CUT-OUTS AND IN THE INITIAL
PRESSINGS AT LEAST, THE PAPER INNER SLEEVE BORE A PSYCHEDELIC DESIGN - HERE
OFFERED IS A 1967 MONO 1st PRESSING WITH THE EARLIEST MATRIX NUMBERS : XEX
637-1 / XEX 638-1, THE FOLDOUT COVER IS IN NICE SHAPE WITH SLIGHT WEAR TO
UPPER LEFT SIDE CORNER ... PERFECT CUT-OUTS INSERT ... THE VINYL RECORD SHOWS
A FEW LIGHT MARKS BUT PLAYS VERY WELL WITH A HINT OF BACKGROUND NOISE...
COME IN ITS ORIGINAL PSYCH INNER SLEEVE
