THE REVIEW

Orchestra played masterfully, electric guitars, pianos played simultaneously, drums, percussion, bass, very creative choruses and a lot of innovation.

"Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" is all of this. It was the first album to have a certain elaboration, not only in terms of the music, but also in the simple cover, and it was also the first music album to have the lyrics inside the vinyl. The Beatles had already churned out several classics, from "Please Please Me," to "Meet The Beatles," to "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver," all albums that, moreover, brought something new in the '60s. But with this album, the Beatles simply elevated music to art.

The masterpiece opens with the distorted guitar in the title track "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" and concludes with three pianos played simultaneously in "A Day in The Life." In a varied and fascinating orchestral triumph, the four Liverpool artists sang truly unique, original, and singable choruses, like in "Lucy in The Sky With Diamonds" and "A Little Help From my Friends." The album represents an imaginary concert played by a fantasy group, portrayed by the Beatles. No album had such a swift impact in the world of music as "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band," which expressed the Beatles at the highest peak of their career.

In short, it was truly a success for the four from Liverpool!

 The most beautiful track on the album is the closing one: A Day In The Life is perhaps one of the most beautiful and modern songs by the Beatles.

 She’s Leaving Home still manages to move me, blending perfectly in the myriad of bright lights and colors of the album.


By waties

 "’A Day In The Life’ is the masterpiece above another 4-5 masterpieces, I seriously wouldn’t know how to define it."

 "It’s like going to the theater and seeing 4 strangely dressed guys doing strange things singing natural, human music."


By Sanjuro

 The whole class watches him squirm like a Houdini of the urban underclass, the new feminist girls then... kick the male chauvinist bear and spit rains down everywhere.

 Davide X instead of lady laxatives could have found with unchanged results... a copy of the already much-mentioned Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.


By vellutogrigio

 Although inferior to contemporary "hard" rock songs by The Who, Rolling Stones or Kinks, it perhaps has the merit of introducing this kind of music to less attentive listeners.

 A masterpiece that seems to have no weak points... you won’t hear it played in any dance entertainment for sixty-year-old professionals. Chapeau.

 "Sgt. Pepper’s should be protected by an impenetrable case to avoid attacks from any deterrent agent of natural or artificial origin."

 "Anyone who loves rock music and beyond MUST own ‘Sgt. Pepper’s.’"
