Background...

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is the eighth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. Released on 26 May 1967,[nb 1] Sgt. Pepper is regarded by musicologists as an early concept album that advanced the roles of sound composition, extended form, psychedelic imagery, record sleeves, and the producer in popular music. The album had an immediate cross-generational impact and was associated with numerous touchstones of the era's youth culture, such as fashion, drugs, mysticism, and a sense of optimism and empowerment. Critics lauded the album for its innovations in songwriting, production and graphic design, for bridging a cultural divide between popular music and high art, and for reflecting the interests of contemporary youth and the counterculture.

The outer GATEFOLD cover is great for age and has the much sought after EXTRA WIDE SPINE (8mm instead of the usual 6mm) and has retained a lovely sheen still. Has the usual dort, age discolouration/wear to the corners/edges as to be expected for an item of this age, and some crinkles to the outer protective film.

The vinyl has a beautiful glossy sheen in appearance and  sits flat to the surface. Lovely clean labels and nice spindle holes.  There are a few insignificant non feelable surface lines and some neefle dots next to the label. Spindle trails can be seen at an angle.

The green Peter Blake cutouts are excellent as seem to have been kept inside the gatefold. Beautifully vibrant with only minor imperfections.

Completing this set is the ofter missing Red Fool's Swirl protective inner. In general it is lovely for age  has a small nic to the top and a seam split starting.

OVERALL A FANTASTIC, ORIGINAL PIECE TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION!!!

Will package securely and post via signed for delivery.
