Reviews (page 13 of 15)
Actually might not be my fav Beatles album. I think you can easily give this a 5 based on historical/impact, but in terms of a listening I may even gravitate towards a 3.5 or 4. So gonna go with 4.
Enjoyed, v experimental, lots of Indian stuff w Paul's more day in the life stuff
Must have been an odd release at the time. Lara says "interesting use of instruments from the orient" haha. Overall pretty strong album with only a couple weird tracks.
Really great, goes without saying. Torn between a 4 and a 5 because while it is undeniably great, influential and a milestone in pop music, i hate Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds with a passion. Some other songs aren't as great as the hype would make you believe.
CLASSIC
I was previously familiar with this album, but never really dug into it particularly, at least compared to other Beatles albums. Like, now that I look at it, I'm only slightly familiar with some of the songs. -I like the spooky and Indian-esque vibes of "Within You Without You" -Whole album was nice, but I preferred the second half. Especially "Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!," "Within You Without You," "Lovely Rita," "Good Morning Good Morning" -I am well aware of this album's status as an innovative records, but I don't think it holds up as strong as other innovative records. Innovative records like "Black Sabbath" by Black Sabbath or "Tommy" by The Who hold up much better. The music inspired by this album has usurped it, in my opinion.
Gotta respect it don’t gotta love it
Loved it. Knew all the songs but hadn’t listened to them all together
Great songs. Timeless classics.
This album is pog and I must admit it is getting better.
Far out maaaan.
Some weird and proggy songs. Enjoyed
Favorite Beatles album so far.
Pretty good album. Songs are a bit weird, but it doesn’t take away from how good they are.
Not the best Beatles album but still notable for being weird and expiremental which was outstanding for the time.
Iconic, wonderfull. It's not my favourite album of the beatles, but it doesn't make it a bad thing
Classic Beatles
Finalmente ouvi o mítico Sgt.Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band e digo, a expetativa era gigante. O álbum é o clássico álbum dos Beatles e possui os mesmos problemas que qualquer álbum dos Beatles tem, músicas que são assim um bocado chatas. Pelo que compreendo no álbum os Beatles fazem-se passar por uma banda e dão um concerto como estas personagens e infelizmente nenhuma música é memorável, tirando o Lucy in Sky of Diamonds, mas é memorável por quão enfadonha consegue ser. Mas é um álbum dos Beatles, não é mau. É bastante engraçado de se ouvir, mas fica aquém de outras obras que eles produziram, nomeadamente o Rubber Soul, que não acho que seja assim tão bom, mas consegue ser melhor que o Sgt. Pepper e o seu clube de corações solitários. É um álbum curto onde as músicas seguem o clássico dizer do Pessoa, primeiro estranha-se depois entranha-se. Ficando sempre um pouco distante de um álbum espetacular devido a esta estranheza inicial. Em suma, não é mau, mas com toda a expetativa esperava algo mais. Destaco a música Fixing a Hole e dou a nota de 7 ao álbum Nota: 7/10 Data: 09/01/2025
Wide ranging. Clear influences of drugs and Yoko and all the various life stages they were going through. A classic.
Liked the oldies.
This is such a fine album. But I kind of always felt it's missing something, as much sense as that may make.
I'm not a huge Beatles fan, but it's iconic for sure.
- fun, creative, catchy, weird
It’s not the “best of the Beatles” but it’s up there
They were all clearly off their faces when writing/recording this.
I'd have to say, the best of the Beatles
Great start, great end, few weak tracks in the middle
Since so many say this is the greatest album of all time, it's tough to give it anything but a 5. Great production, orchestration and album art. IMO 3 or 4 songs are a bit "meh", 2 too many for a 5 from me.
Interesting and conceptual. More drug-driven and plays more with middle voice instruments
Un poco flojo para ser de los Beatles.
A classic
Really great album though starts off excellent but then the rest of the songs aren't eye popping except for the last song, A Day in the Life. 9/10.
Every track is a certified hood classic (apart from Within You). 7/10, Mr. Kite is cool.
Good album, not the best they've put out, you can definitely hear the experimentation in this which makes for some hits but more importantly misses
Some real classics in here. Ah... that loops lovely.
Concept much?
Not my favorite Beatles album by any stretch, but still a lot of damn solid songs on there that are classics by every merit. George=best beatle
Pretty cool and and its iconic
Great, great record. Not *tons* of their biggest hits, but a thoroughly great record.
Classic.
Some cool stuff, some timeless stuff if course, but half of it is corny as hell.
My favorite album for many years growing up, but it hasn’t aged as well for me as most of the other Beatles material.
8.6
BIIIIILL-EEEEEEY SHEARS!
several great classics
Lucy in sky of diamonds is bop
Half good, half fine
Not my favourite Beatles album?
I meaan it's the beatles it's really gooood
Possibly in a minority (of those that actually like the Beatles) feeling this falls short of the coherence of Rubber Soul and Revolver. But one of the great psychedelic rock albums of the era
Lots of good songs and a cool variety of instrumentation.
A very nice album. I love most Beatles songs. It was some time ago that I had listenend to the whole album.
Album quasi parfait.
Very fun songs actually. Good album.
It's a really solid album but some of the songs a really weak. The best songs are some of the greatest ever made though.
I wish I could listen to a Beatles album anew, without being aware of them and their legacy. Their music has been with me since before I was me, Mum was a big fan. I can't imagine how mindblowing this album must have been when it was released in '67, it's so unlike anything else. There's still nothing quite like it. I prefer other Beatles albums, but this is still fantastic.
Nice classic, lots of good hits and drug references
Not their best album imo but really not bad. Im torn with giving it a 5 cause beatles, but 4 is fine imo
spotify couldn't find the album.. so
Första conceptalbumet? Före sin tid
I feel like this one has a little bit of a darker tone than previous Beatles albums. I've heard all the songs on this before but never listened the whole way through the album, so this was interesting. Especially on "Fixing a Hole," you can kind of tell the Beatles were diverging from where they were at before. "A Day In The Life" = still my favorite Beatles song. Obviously this is one of the best albums of all time, I get a liiiiittle bored toward the middle so I'm gonna give it 4 stars.
Mid
1967. Key Songs: With A Little Help From My Friends, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
Classic album, a lot of the tracks aren’t for me but I totally see why folks love this stuff
Classic psychedelia from the most famous band in the world!
Someone smarter than me said this album is carried on the weight of the beginning and end of the album and I fully agree. A few songs on this area right shite.
Ein paar Timeless Classics aber auch viele nervige, verdrogte Songs. 3,8 / 5.
Need to revisit with a good set of speakers, panning is really distracting. In the end it was really fun, but nothing that really blew me away, I understand the praises but it did nothing special for me.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Odotin enemmän
Grand album but not as as great in my mind as is usually written
Interesting production. Some of the more theatrical songs aren't really my thing though.
El album empezó muy bien, pero se me ha descafeinado mucho hacia la mitad del álbum. El final ha mejorado un poco, pero no lo suficiente como para valorarlo mejor.
Ok
it's been a while since I've listened to this album all the way through. I think it's so funny that this is considered the first concept album when the concept itself doesn't expand passed the album cover and 2 tracks (plus another track on a later album references Sgt. Pepper's I think??) regardless, I may be in the minority, believing that The Beatles were better when they were pure pop rather than the psychedelic sounds in the later years. there are some exceptions to this, one of which is the final track on this album: A Day in the Life
This was some regular people music! BORINGGGGGGGGGGG 2 stars but +1 because it’s a classic
Not my favourite beatles album, but there are definitely some really great tunes here. When I'm Sixty Four is probably my favourite on the album.
A day in the life is really interesting. Within you without you also. Doesn't seem like a band but a bunch of individual projects. Had higher hopes for what is supposed to be an all-time great.
Couple of hits, gets way to experimental.
Druggy Beatles are my favorite Beatles, but I still don't really like the Beatles.
from my friends: fun lucy in the sky: trippy? getting better: fun and uplifting fixing a hole: seems childish she’s leaving home: contemplative and bittersweet, while telling a story? benefit of mr kite: circus, mysterious and magical but no hidden meaning within you, without you: genuinely am i high rn? such a weird experience, i could feel the dreads growing and smell the weed for some reason? just doesn’t sound very beatle-ish when i’m 64: sounds like it would be for a commercial or an old barbershop, but the lyrics are kind of weird? lovely rita: defo a love song or smth, but told like a story good morning good morning: chaotic, fast paced, sound like it would’ve been in a musical A day in the life: starts off slow and a little melancholy like a good ending, but lowk gets very dark as if that’s normal for the world. without feeling like the events are overwhelming but so common whirlwind. sounds like alice in wonderland reimagined. i can’t tell if there’s supposed to be hidden meanings or if it’s just weird asf
First time listening to this album straight through even though I've heard about half the songs individually before. Like most Beatles albums, I feel like their music is better listened to in a variety playlist. It makes it kind of hard to rate the album because overall, it's a big "this is average", but there are some great songs on here and it feels very "classic". Decent highs, low lows. Favorites: With a Little Help from my Friends, She's Leaving Home, Within You Without You, Lovely Rita, A Day in the Life Song that made me suffer: Good Morning Good Morning 3 stars: some fun songs, would listen to some songs again, but probably never as a whole album
Classic, kinda boring time to time, but still legend, catchy, British,
high 5 good this
Not a favorite but some great song on this album.
What a ride! Emblematic album. It's nice to hear this album after so many. It really shines.
I like this album. I don’t always like the Beatles but I enjoy this album. It’s a good album with some good songs. It’s a groundbreaking album which pushed Brian Wilson to try and make a better music. Is it always great songwriting no and they aren’t great players. It was a decent good album that pushed some production into the mix that was different. I know people love love the Beatles. I think Revolver is a better album. But hey what do I know I’m just a casual listener
Goofy goofy fun time! I liked this Beatles album much better than the last one. Was definitely more into the middle third of the album. I know Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is supposed to be a banger but I just wasn’t feelin it. If I had a nickel for every time a white boy wanted to make an album around an alter ego… Favorites were She’s Leaving Home, Within You Without You, When I’m Sixty Four
6.8/10 I mean its def the beatles not much to say
I like the Beatles vibe. But it feels a bit repetitive to me.
Quarry men. Paul’s a big fat cunt
I don’t know. With the Beatles I have the impression you’re just supposed to like them and rate them 5 stars and if you don’t you have to have a really eloquent critique that demonstrates your music literacy to legitimize your rating.
Also man muss credit dafür geben, dass mit sgt. pepper der blueprint des konzeptalbums in die Welt gesetzt wurde. Cool ist auch, dass es eine Pastiche von Britischer Dance Hall Musik ist. Der Sound selbst ist aber nicht unbedingt mein Geschmack. Ich kann das Album dafür appreciaten was es ist (dazu zähle ich auch das großartige, kreative packaging design), ich muss es mir aber echt nicht regelmäßig anhören. Fun Fact: Ich habe das original-Release auf Vinyl. Allerdings die Version aus dem niederländischen Vertrieb lol
I’ve said it before and will do so again: I grew up in a house that did not play or follow the Beatles. This means I’m familiar with their more ubiquitous, popular tunes and know nothing of the middle songs. I enjoyed this album as much as the others I’ve heard by then so far. It’s ok but not something I would regularly seek out or put on. And on my scale, that’s a 3. I feel bad with a long streak of primarily 3s lately…I’d prefer to be more polarized. Not today. 3/5
THis had some good songs in it. Feels all over the place as an album. Generally good fun and I enjoyed the ones with sitar
The first three tracks are absolute bangers and some of my favorite Beatles' songs, but everything after is less interesting to me. Maybe if I did drugs this album would hit more. Rating: 3
3/5
Mid
Uppity jolly midness
the weird beatles album. not particularly a fan.
Not my cup of tea, did not make it past Fixing a Hole
6.8/10 One of those albums that kind of lost my interest over time. It used to be my favorite album, but as I discovered more and more music, it just kinda started sounding less and less exciting to me. I'm DEFINITELY not one to call The Beatles overrated, but this album kinda gives that title off for me. It's not a bad album by any means; there's ambition, cool recording techniques, and interesting ideas, but it just doesn't work for me coming back to it. Something about some moments just don't feel finished to me, even though they put in like 600 hours (I think) into mixing it. I just find myself gravitating to most other Beatles albums as opposed to Sgt Pepper's. A Day in the Life gives it bonus points though. One of, if not their best songs. (Had to throw in my icy cold take with my slightly warm one)
Beatles
Es muy bueno e interesante pero no es mi favorito de los beatles, aunque sea demasiado bueno. Tiene temas que no son la gran cosa la verdad aunque sea muy valorado.
It's good 'n' all, it's also kinda hokey -
No está en mi top de los beatles pero en cuanto a rock psicodélico de los 60s es tope de gama 7,5/10
Ehright
Too many music hall novelty numbers, for me.
A Day in the Life is an amazing song, the rest was various levels of not for me. I think this is my least favourite of the Beatles albums we've had (so far)
ik prob higher but im in a rounding down mood rn
Great album, though not their best. I think the first half of the album is far better than the second half. Even still it's a good album. I just prefer most of their later stuff starting with The White Album more.
I get why this is an important record, but it doesn't do a lot for me. I like the first and last tracks and that's about it.
Intro had me really amped up for something more conceptual here but all the songs in middle are just classic mellow Beatles stuff - not necessarily bad but not what I was expecting and felt a little let down
Well….listen, I’ve never really gotten The Beatles. I understand their legacy, I know about the hysteria, it all makes sense but this album, for all I’ve heard about it over the years, kind of disappointing. For what was meant to be some sort of concept album, I felt like it fell apart after the first half. Some real standouts with ‘A Day In The Life’, ‘With A Little Help From My Friends’ and naturally ‘Lucy…’
again. major drug vibes
Good a bit overrated
Surprisingly still holds up well, some tracks kind of boring though.
my least fav Beatles album, for me it's all the worst Beatles song writing tendencies condensed in one album. with that being said it has A Day in the Life which is probably my favourite Beatles song, so that bumps it up a lot
Chill album, my favorite song was "being for the benefit of mr. kite!". Not a big fan tho, I wouldn't listen to it again.
i don't like the beatles at all and don't understand why so many people love them. this album was actually better than expected, or maybe my tastes have changed so i dislike them less than i used to for some reason. still not something i would want to listen to regularly though
Hat mir besser gefallen als ich in Erinnerung hatte. Vor allem die erste Hälfte. Danach wurde es bisschen strange aber ganz cool 3.5/5
se deja escuchar
Decent selection of songs but doesn't have many of my favourites of theirs.
Beatles är beatles, vissa najs låtar, lite indiskt sound stundtals. Kan se de var viktiga för musiken utan att gilla dem.
Repeat listen
- few good ones but not my favorite beatles album
bylo super do poki nie zalaczyla sie muzyczka z hazbin hotel a potem jakies plemienne bebenki przez 5 minut a tak to ogolnie nie porywa jakos bardzo Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds banger
it's good but most faded into the background for me
man merkt die indischen einflüsse, danke klaas 🤩, ziemlich gut aber nicht mein favourite
I get why it’s so beloved … but it didn’t do it for me. They did some really cool things here with the audio (particularly on the first song), and had some great hits, but a lot of the songs felt borderline filler and totally inconsistent. 3+
Some good songs but most meh Beatles album on this list so far
okay! im hearing the voice on the left and the instrument on the right. with a lil help from my friends is sweet!
buen disco, me gusto dentro de todo
Not my cup of tea but it’s the Beatles
The Good: We get to join a band! The Bad: What if we don’t have a lonely heart? The Ugly: That look of sheer jealousy from the other band members, with their broken hearts… suckers! Well.. I knew it was coming… the album that is. And I listened, with great interest as I’d never really listened to the album… and I liked the start, and then I started noticing the influence that several songs on this album must have had for Queen’s work further down the line… And then we got mystical… we got sihtar.. we got a general thought of “what the fuck is this doing here?” And then they just lost me… Lucy In The Sky, With A Little Help Form My Friends… what monster classic gems! The rest… I could have been spared most of the album, to tell you the truth… I heard the album Mr Dimery, can I die now? 3 1/2 downgraded… 3*
need to be high to do the whole thing but it's pretty cool and I'd heard most of it
good album, not the beast of them.
Parts of the album are undeniably good, but a lot of it is shit and eternal Lennon/mccartney dick sucking
"When Im 64" really crashes this album
not mad at it rn
Kinda annoying?
It has an interesting background context but it’s not their best and some songs are so weird.
Not sure I’ve ever listened to it all the way through. A day in the life is incredible. Some other good stuff. But some shockers. Just feels like throwing tracks on an album
It's fine, but by the end, I was tired of The Beatles.
Its the Beatles, had high expectations and none of these songs are ones ill go out of my way to listen to. Definitely an experimental album knowing their other albums. 3
I liked the first few songs but not so much the rest
Really not sure how I feel about this album. I'm sure in the time it came out it was otherworldly. Some songs are just annoying, some are good.
Liked: Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
To quote a famous whining philosopher: "If I speak... big trouble, big trouble. And I prefer not to be in big trouble."
The only Beatles studio album in my shelves, and only the second time I've played it in full. 'A Day In The Life' is really good... that's all I have really. There's one or two tracks that reach a level amongst a lot of naff filler. Heard before ✅️ Listened this time ✅️ Revisit 🫳 ★★★☆☆ (5/10) Total reviewed : 288 Already owned : 64 Purchased : 15 To buy : 3 Nope : 206
A proper album, but i am grading largely on how likely i am to re-listen to the whole thing. some hits in this, but also some filler
Morceaux ultra connus mais pas forcément ma came pour autant
Not my favourite album of theirs, but can imagine how insane this was when it came out
Me gustó y son los Beatles. Pero no me mato y tampoco me pareció una obra de arte, esta aprobado 3 estrellas
I wasn't wowed by this, honestly. I hope I enjoy future Beatles albums more. It wasn't bad by any means, just not compelling to me and I didn't love the vocals.
Revolutionary, but disjointed AF.
Sgt Peppers is often hailed as the once of the best albums ever, Perhaps the best that the Beatles ever made. This is both an incredible testament to the Beatles as a music making unit that for something to be in the upper part of their discography is must also be one of the best albums ever made. It's also a wonderful example of how powerful good aesthetics are. Sgt Peppers invokes such specific imagery, the cover, the outfits. There are also absolute bangers on here. The album starts with three of them back to back. But from there you get into a meaty middle of songs that don't keep up with that opening crawl. A decent number of these ideas in the heart of this album are explored better on albums that either came before or after this in the Beatles discography. There are really only a few songs on this that essential even within the Beatles own music. But this albums benefits from those few songs being at the extreme ends of the album and packaged in an all out and very fun packaging. Don't misinterpret me as saying this is bad by any means, 3 is probably harsh, but the actual music here isn't the best the Beatles had for us and is pretty massivley overrates. TLDR, Revolver is much better.
great album for a monday morning in the office.
I was digging the beginning of this one but I think it got worse over the course of the album. 3 stars
good album to listen to while enjoying a mafia game
Juguetón, experimental, variado
This is my first full Beatles album listen. I expected the social commentary and pretentious production moments, but didn’t expect the more self reflective, and ‘couples’ focused tracks. The bolder songs such as Within You Without You did not resonate with me, but I was doing chores on indica so probably not the correct drug choice to properly appreciate that songs risks. Listening in 2026 also naturally renders the album less innovative, I can imagine it being significantly more immersive at the time. While I don’t think I’ll return to the album as a whole, the listening experience wasn’t negative and I liked a handful of tracks.
6/10 on the first listen, some interesting songs
I am not one of those crazy Beatles fans and honestly think this album is overrated. I said what I said.
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band 1967, The Beatles (27 marzo, 2026). Puntuación: 7/10 Vibes: Circo Beat de Fito, psicodelia, lava lamps, caleidoscopio, collage, dream fever tipo Walter Mitty, el diario de Greg, arquitectura archigram, bongos, camisa de estampado de palmeras y playa, Wes Anderson, Bali, India, The Darjeeling Limited, "Lovely Rita, meter maid!" Datos: Brit rock, Collage sonoro experimental Canción favorita: Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, A Day In The Life (escucharlo con audífonos)
Liked the titular song and most of it really. Good listen, I was listening to the remastered version though. I can see how it was a huge influence for decades after.
They could stand to be a bit more innovative
kında yesılcam muzıgı ama ok
20/03/26 uma das melhores capas existentes tentei ouvir esse uma vez e não gostei do início agora foi, só que tem coisas aqui que eu gosto muito e outras que eu acho uma merda a primeira é as letras e a atmosfera drogas e circo, não tem sentido pra mim a sonoridade meio psicodélica colagem é o que eu gosto, quando não tem elementos circenses, embora eu tenha um pequeno problema com muitas músicas dos beatles parecerem iguais isso com revolver, e nesse álbum tbm - os que diferenciam mais para mim são rubber soul e abbey road obviamente a primeira faixa é foda porque ela se mantém constante, com vocais interessantes para os instrumental with a little help from my friends igualmente Lucy in the sky with diamonds é o melhor LSD que eles poderiam ter usado, porque ficou bom, uma das melhores deles - o John Lennon high pitched é insano que nem em getting better, a guitarra martela demais, e se sobressai um pouco e o John Lennon falando que costumava ser cruel com a mulher sendo que ele deixou ela passando fome pela Yoko Ono é uma hipocrisia do cacete a melodia de fixing a hole é sem graça, a guitarra solo é bacaninha sinto que a atmosfera narrativa de espetáculo das duas primeiras músicas foi deixada de lado, desfocou algo com potencial she’s leaving home é interessantemente orquestral, combina com a melancolia, mas sai totalmente do clima rock do álbum - de certa forma funciona como quebra de expectativa e não enjoa voltou o clima de espetáculo em terceira pessoa no mr.kite, os vocais e o instrumental meio fúnebre é peculiar esse solo todo órgão foi legal within you without you totalmente George Harrison, mas chata e sonoramente poluída - solo de sitar interessante, mas se enrola de forma igual a uma música de revolver que tem essa sonoridade essas risadas do nada when I’m sixty four toda silly, seria mais bonitinha se não fosse a merda viva do John Lennon, nem chegou aos sessenta e quatro (desculpa) Lovely Rita tinha potencial, mas é só mais uma eles tem certa obsessão em falar de mulheres que parecem mais masculinas, para mim isso aí tem nome essas arfadas e gemidos psicodélicos GOOD MORNING KANYE WEST REFERENCE???? (odeio ele pra deixar claro) esse kazoo estourado, a música inteira é caótica demais, mal montada e fica chata um solo insano, a bateria dessa salva um pouco esses barulhos de animal wtf narrativo completamente desperdiçado esse beat de hiphop na penúltima ficou foda, foi um reaproveitamento inteligente e encerra a narrativa de espetáculo de forma interessante (embora ele esteja implícito até demais por boa parte do álbum) a day in the life é instável de um jeito bom, os vocais são fodas e os drums fills também (a música se mantém nessa base de um jeito interessante) as partes de psicodelia são interessantes, distoantes e intrusivas o clima da música vai mudando a cada parte psicodélica, se mantendo animada mas cada vez mais etérea o final é o ápice esses 40 segundos de grave baixo, estática com um loop de padrão sonoro de fala aleatório para encerrar é de fuder não é aquele álbum que eu acabo e sinto que wow mudou minha vida, é mais um álbum aclamado de época dos beatles, que introduziu certa psicodelia artística e sonora em um projeto meio inconstante (revolver também se enquadra nessa definição, embora eu ache ele um pouco mais atraente visual e sonoramente) daria 7/10, pra fins de avaliação dou 6
Fun and energetic album
I actually enjoyed this album to my surprise, I usually don’t enjoy old albums.
Weirdly despite quite liking the Beatles, I'd never really given this album much of a listen. And for whatever reason I find myself quite muted on it. There are tracks here I really like - particularly Within You Without You - but this definitely feels like the weaker of the band's golden era records that I've listened to so far.
Overrated
C'est pas le meilleur je trouve
Cannot deny the influence and the weirdness, even if it's a bit overwhelming at points
fave song: when i'm sixty four vibe: not my fave beatles album (revolver fancam) but solid and foundational, resident of the intersection of mom and dad music rating: 66/100
An overall enjoyable collection of psychedelic sounds and melodies. The composition shines more than anything else on this album. The songs flow nicely into one another, making it an alright listen - especially the first half. The intro, in particular, grabbed me. That said, the album never truly moved me. I suppose I will try again some day, but as a whole it didn't manage to convert me into a Beatles fan. I have tried multiple times, and while I fully recognize how their legacy shaped music, I can't say they are among my personal favorites. The best tracks for me were "With a Little Help From My Friends" and "Within You Without You".
3.5
I get why the beetles are so good, I just don't like their music that much, at least this album
sólido 7/10 no soy muy fanática de los Beatles pero me gustó más de lo que pensaba
Liked it somewhat. Just not my type
the truth is that i'm just not a crazy huge beatles fan. SORRY. pleasant to listen to but not an album i'd seek out. lovely rita was my favorite
I like this one for its softness and easy listening. There's a lot of classics here, but I'll be honest I think nostalgia has a big effect on this one for me. I wonder if I would like this album the same if I had not grown up around it. Positives: A lot of the instrument choices on this one are still refreshing to this day. The arrangements are still very unique and layered nicely. Negatives: I don't really find myself attaching strong emotions to many of these songs, save a couple. Favourite song upon listening: She's Leaving Home Started/Finished: 1am 24/02/2026 - 2am 24/02/2026 (single listen) Did I grow up with this one: yes Number of albums reviewed: 1 (including this one) 1 is bad, 2 is not for me, 3 is good, 4 is great, 5 is legendary ~ My music buff family made a music buff of me ~
No a big beatles fan but its great
Relatively good album 2/3 really good songs
This album was difficult for me to rate, both because it’s the first album we got and because the reputation and impact of the Beatles is often better than their music itself. I love the exciting, rock tones in some of the songs but overall feel that other than the notoriety, many of the songs are a little… milquetoast. Season: Late Spring Favorite Song: Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
Es el primer álbum que escucho entero de los Beatles porque no son una banda que escuche gustosa. Es innegable que el álbum es impecable de principio a fin, tiene unas transiciones increíbles y cada canción construye un universo sonoro que transporta, sin embargo son contadas con los dedos de una mano las canciones de esta banda que me gustan lo suficiente para tener en una playlist y escuchar diariamente. Este álbum lo confirma, pensé que no me gustaban los Beatles porque nunca les había dado una verdadera oportunidad, pero después de esta escucha son pocas las canciones que me quedan dando vueltas en la cabeza, aunque cada vez que empezaba a sonar una me parecía una obra de arte. Siempre fui crítica del dicho popular de que los Beatles inventaron la música, porque me parece que en su época había bandas iguales o mejores, pero escuchando este álbum pude detectar al menos 5 canciones que me recordaron a canciones posteriores todas de géneros diferentes. Ahí radica el mito de los Beatles, son una gran banda para admirar y absorber. Mis canciones favoritas del álbum: 1. Within you without you 2. She’s leaving home 3. Lovely Rita 4. A day in the life
meh
oh my gosh is that an album cover?! nyuhhhhh uhhh so good
A very eccentric album. The Beatles definitely defines their unique style here. When I'm Sixty Four and Lovely Rita were pretty good, and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was probably my favorite (and one of the only Beatles songs I can recognize). 5.8/10. Good, but I probably wouldn't sit down and listen to these songs again.
Lo be the Beatles but a but repairs Ive agent
Can appreciate it, but a little too weird and experimental for me. LSD is a good tune —-this was first time listening as I remember. — I Re-listened and liked better this time!
legalzinho. as músicas são bem paradas, mas gostei do instrumental
there are better beatles
Great vibes coming from this album and honestly great synergy and sound coming from the band. Also loved all the other instrumental elements either being strings or some winds in there really added to the album's dynamic. 6.5/10, Favorite Song: When I'm Sixty Four
Twas fun. I had never listened to a Beatles album in full, better than I expected.
Solid album!
Better than I thought it would be
Thirteen songs from the Beatles. It's not my favorite album of theirs, not even in the top 3 despite loving a few of the songs. I find the stretch from Fixing a Hole to Lovely Rita doesn't really move me. So this record feels more important for what it represents in the Beatles' career and how it helped open up the sound of popular music than for how much I enjoy it. Speaking of representation, have you ever sat and stared at the album cover? It's an idea of a "who's who" of 20th-century culture. But that idea is also bound in time and place, so the perspective, while intending to be wide, narrows over time. Looking at it now, I don't recognize nearly all the individuals in this collage meant to represent a magic crowd of movers, shakers, and history shapers. I have heard, through the power of the internet, that a few folks were left off the cover to avoid controversy. I guess even the Beatles had limits.
Objectively good album with good music. It was enjoyable but not necessarily an album I anticipate re-visiting, probably because the genre isn't completely up my alley. Still a great listen!
As always with The Beatles in my experience, some songs are bangers, and the others are kind of there. Most of the second half of this album was just alright. Like, they certainly have the ability to create some fantastic music, but they’re so inconsistent. I enjoyed this album. I can’t say a single song was bad, but at the same time, it wasn’t impressive in any way. Good album, but I can’t say I agree with all the praise it’s getting. 7/10

Ah my favorite Beatles album. Mostly cause it's weird. I was also told this and Pet Sounds was the first whole album idea. So apparently before those two albums were mostly just singles mashed up and released. So this and Pet Sounds were the first mainstream albums created from idea to creation to release as a whole idea and not just individual songs. It's a fun album, get really weird in tracks but works for me. No I'm not a fan of every song, I like the concept and execution of it and will enjoyed several songs. It flows better than the white album. It's worth listening to even without the historical context.
Started off rlly strong, fell off a bit but still enjoyed it tbh. Basic but fav is with a little help from my friends. So upbeat and fun.
I was trying my best to expect good things, but I found myself excitedly awaiting the end. I will not be listening to the various versions at the end
Not my fav beatles
Beatles. Decent, I can see the appeal.
Known it for a long time. Other than some brilliant moments, to me there are much better Beatles albums. I understand that everything about this record is revolutionary, but I just like the other albums better.
really liked the beginning. started to lose me when it came to all the carnival/zoo noises. should i be giving points for creativity or just go off of my personal enjoyment? i think the latter
It's cool how weird and experimental they got with this one. Did I like most of the songs? No, but I can appreciate the album as a whole and had a good time. Glad I finally listened to this one, big hole in my knowledge.
Overrated.
I’m a bit sniffy with regards to the Beatles as I believe they are greatly overhyped , however I was pick an album I would pick this one for the art work alone the cover is fantastic
i mean, i guess.
There’s one song on this that makes me disoriented and nauseous
Quite a few good songs on this album, but far from my favorite Beatles album.
Classic Beatles but once again… it’s the beatles
Kinda weird. I’ve heard some of these songs before.
feels like a Wes Anderson movie combined with Ace Ventura movies
7/10 - не слушал
Stundtals spännande och välgjort, överlag konstigt och spretigt. Antar att jag hamnar i helvetet för det här.
I'm not the biggest Beatles fan in the world, but I'm finding that the "drugged out era" of the Beatles (which my parents always referred to this record as) is probably my favorite stuff of theirs. It's less sugary pop than their earlier stuff, and it takes a few more calculated risks than the Beatlemania era of their music, and they still retain a lot of their pop sensibilities without so much saccharine nonsense. I'm still not willing to fawn over them, cause not every risk they take on this record pays off for me (there are a few legitimate stinkers on this record...and also, I really hate the sitar), but I can appreciate this record a lot more than their earlier body of work. 3.4/5
To quote a dead genius: "They were so high they let Ringo sing a couple of tunes"
Its more my vibe and I might listen again
like it was nice, it ws kind of experimental since there were a lot of different rythyms and the songs overall were different which i like, buuut, the songs werent much my style. But i respect the album.
I liked this!! But I find it insane that the doors' debut album came out in the same year, because that is far more interesting and intricate (that was generated a couple days ago so I can't help comparing the two). Standout tracks (all 3.5/5) - She's leaving home - Lovely Rita - Good morning good morning
Worst - She's leaving home Best - Lucy in the Sky
Het is wel oke maar voor me gevoel heb ik dit allemaal ooit wel een keer gehoord. Het voelt niet alsof ik naar nieuwe muziek aan het luisteren ben. Er zit geen enkel nummer tussen die ik mijn afspeellijst zou zetten. Dat zeggende is het geen slechte muziek 6/10.
Personally speaking, I am not a big Beatles fan. This album, in particular, I had a few favorite songs, but the rest I can kind of tolerate. Though it's not bad, it's just not my taste.
I hate this era of the Beatles
Beatles are overrated
Čudne harmonike in trube hahaah
Classic album that everyone should listen to. Great start!
6.5/10
An upbeat album for the Beatles, but a little too “showy” for my tastes. All of the songs are catchy, but there are so many other great Beatles works out there!
it was very old timey obviously. sounded good. I already knew Lucy in the sky with diamonds and that's definitely my favorite. probably wouldn't listen on my own but that's ok
Mid but not bad some hits for surrereeerrrre
One of my primary school teachers used to use some of the tracks from this album in her classes. Can't say I've revisited it much since then but a good record all round, if not something I'd go to of my own accord.
Generational
Was alright. Lucy in the Sky is a bop as always
Best Beatles album?
альбом звучить дивно, визнаю його унікальність та вплив на музику вцілому. але це не моє. fav songs: within you without you. a day in the life.
i enjoyed the show, for the most part.
I see the influence this album has on many bands that came after it. Personally, I struggle to listen to any music by the beatles.
One of the better Beatles albums.
It's Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band, how can you not like it?
Uggghhh finally time to listen to the Beatles I guess…. After listening to it it’s not bad, but not for me. The only songs I liked were Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, A Day in the Life and maybe the title track so 🤷
Oh joy, another Beatles album. Other reviews rave about chords sticking in you soul for long periods, or music in technicolor, but I just heard the same tracks that have been overplayed on every radio station in the world for 40 years. Sure this was seminal, but does this list really need to include every single note ever recorded by anyone even vaguely connected to this fucking band?
Solid album, you can't go wrong with the Beatles.
I can certainly appreciate is, but it honestly didn't give me much. I like the vibe and overall feel. It sort of blended into one big piece, which is I guess by design as a concept album. Definitely worth listening to overall.
Well, this was inevitable, might's well get it over with. Yep, "Sgt Peppers" is an incredibly important record that inspired countless important bands in later years. But do I ever want to listen to it again? No. (Aw come on, even "Day in the Life"? NO.) This record came out when I was nine years old and has been on constant rotation ever since - so yes, I have heard it, thank you.
truly felt like a circus and i liked that. i can acknowledge its greatness but its not my vibe there’s an instrument in there that isnt doing it for me
A classic and genre-bending album to change how we heard and viewed music. The Summer of Love, will we experience something like that again?
Hard to say what I thought about the album. Most of it is solid classic rock music, but one song struck me as being very aware of the Beatles's star power.
The Beatles are good, not breaking any ground by saying that. This album has some weird songs and overall doesn't have their best stuff on it but none of it was bad and two of them are quite good.
Strong start, excellent finish. (But lol it's chaff in the middle let's be fr?)
Los Beatles cumplen, pero no me flipan
First of all, we have to acknowledge the enormous impact this album had on popular music and culture in general. That can't be denied. Unfortunately it is to its detriment that it inspired so many artists to do better. In short it has not aged well. There are absolutely some great songs here, but the whole offering is incoherrent. It has some of the worst of Paul's "Granny Music". For Every "A Day In The Life" there is a "When I'm Sixty-Four". They are throwing literally everything at the wall, and only some of it sticks. It's adventurous and experimental, but not all experiments are worth repeating. If I were to listen to The Beatles, I'd much rather go for the albums immediately preceding or following Sgt. Peppers. Revolver is just a much more consistently enjoyable listening experience, and the white album is way more daring and interesting. Sgt. Peppers deserves it's reputation as a groundbreaking work. It really was important, but that doesn't mean it's particularly good.
Sempre curti algumas músicas deles, mas ainda não tinha escutado esse álbum. Sensacional.
Beatles innit
(73/100)
Whimsical
Might be my favorite Beatles album. Definitely walks the line between creative and circus music, but more successfully than magical mystery tour, which feels more campy. It's the Beatles. I listen to the opening song a lot. wish it would go on longer before ringo starts singing.
Really liked the final note of A Day in the Life. Holds so well
Hot take but this is probably my least favorite Beatles album even though it has some of their best songs. Just good to me nothing more.
Meget fint album, har aldrig rigtig hørt så meget Beatles. Men det her album var ret sjovt. Mærkelig ting at sige men det minder mig på en eller anden måde om Monty Python. Mange sjove lyde og føles lidt som om man er i cirkus til tider 7/10
Ah, we have finally made it to the Beatles. According to current online music discourse I am not allowed to dislike this band as they influenced every other artist ever and invented literally every music genre. Luckily for me I form my own opinions. So let's see. Damn this really went into some bing bing wahoo ass music
At first I thought I might finally warm up to the Beatles, but then the second half was pretty irritiating.
didn’t listen
I think me being so far removed from a pre-Beatles world prevents me from appreciating the Beatles as much as others rave about them. I also think if I was on acid or seriously stoned I would enjoy this (and other Beatles albums, I'm looking at you White Album) a lot more. However, I was not when I heard this so it's just kinda meh. It sounds nice, if kinda weird. I dunno this just really doesn't do anything for me and I don't really understand in an emotional sense (I can understand it in an academic sense) the impact this had on music in general. Call me stupid if you want, I don't really care, this album is kinda mid.
not one of the stronger Beatles albums. can see how it had big impact on other artists &appreciate variety of styles/sounds. just not my favorite.
3.15
Idk man. Lots of familiar songs. Lots of variety. Very different. Definitely get it but again I think this is a "you had to be there album/band"
Not their best but still great
The Beatles are great. Not every album is a 5 though. This one has a few great songs but altogether is not a favorite and I probably won’t listen to it again in its entirety.
if it wasn't the beatles making this album... i'd probably enjoy it a lot more. this album is so revolutionary - it helped shaped most albums i've ever listened to in my life, the fascinating use of all sorts of instruments is just such a wonder - you only need to look at the review i gave a few days prior on Kate Bush's The Sensual World to see that I love that sorta stuff. I just can't... enjoy it. they just don't do anything special to me, their voices are annoying to me. maybe i just dislike 60's Psychedelic Rock...
I'm going to offend 90% of the people on the website when I say this, but why the hell is this album rated as one of the best albums ever? We are not in 1967, we are in 2025... There is not much that is special to modern ears, like Wow, that is groundbreaking. It sounds like an album produced by some talented musicians on drugs, not by some of the greatest artists ever. If this were 1967, then, sure, with the talent in the industry at the time, I would commend this album with the nature of the industry. This dreamy, loose, and psychedelic album does not meet the standards that a modern music listener can enjoy. Give this album to someone who has not listened to this album before, and you will be shocked to see how they will rate it. I know that, as this is my first time listening to this album, as someone who wants to like all different types of music. Not bad, but insanely overrated.
Ok when I'm 64 is a banger 3/5 still
Kids love Lucy in the Sky
Interesting, haven't listened to much of the Beatles, however the variance in each song was intriguing, though not as immersive as I was expecting. Lucy in the sky with diamonds, getting better and when I'm sixty four are my top 3.
Yes - it is The Beatles and yes - it is a milestone in music. But from my nowadays perspective it is an average album with only a few standout tracks and also a few sucker.
Een paar mooie liedjes naar wel echt erg verouderd
Classic, can get repetitive with lyrics but its beatles still a classic.
Pretty good album, respect for being pioneers with this one, though some parts of it were missing me with the vibe a bit. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is by far my favorite on the album. Good album name.
Classique mais pas mon style
Pretty overrated album I think. Obviously has some amazing and super influential songs - mainly at the start and end. But there’s a fair few duds through the middle.
I am famously a Beatles skeptic, but I liked this album. I felt like the first half of the record was a lot stronger than the second half, but overall very solid. Best Track: She’s Leaving Home
Couple of standout tracks and a few fillers
Never heard of it
I don’t get it I’m afraid. I’m a big fan of bits and bobs of the Beatles catalogue.. but I just can’t get on with this one. I appreciate it was pretty revolutionary at the time but I don’t think it did it for me
I guess you really had to have been there. It is pretty inoffensive.
Very calm and chill
Viele solide Songs. Nichts was mich komplett überzeugt hat.
Love the beginning, love the end, but the middle lacks quite a bit i feel. It feels illegal to give a Beatles album a 3 star but here we are? Fixing a hole through to within you without you ranges from boring, to just quite annoying. Such an incredible opening four songs though, just banger after banger. Best Tracks: With a little help from my friends or when I'm Sixty Four. 3.5/5
A little too weird for me.
Migos clears
It's an iconic album bookended by classic songs. But frankly, the material in the middle of the album isn't that enjoyable to listen to.
Beatles albums rarely feel coherent to me in any meaningful way, and Sgt Pepper’s is the worst offender. I like a lot of the songs on this album independently, but it’s lesser than the sum of its parts.
First four tracks are great, the rest verges on annoying to overrated
What starts off promising - A Little Help From My Friends and Lucy in the Sky being a sublime way to kick off - quickly collapses into the same quirky flower power pulp we're used to. By 'Within You' we're back to the sitar and the thin spiritualism has taken over once more. I dont care for the Sgt Peppers idea either - I suppose we are to put a premium on this because theyre the first people to invent a fictional band or whatever people say about this. I can't think of a more annoying place to be than in the room when they were brainstorming this concept in 1967. And what do they do with it? Nothing. It's forgotten by the second track.
The album does not live up to the hype or the standard set by track 1.
