Truly goated album BILLLLLLYYYYY SHEARRRSSS
Incredible from start to finish.
George Martin is the 5th Beatle. I need to find this in mono.
Almost foolproof album but I don't like when i'm 64
Like great art, it gives you more the more you give it. A genius album from a genius band.
Already listened to this one. Strong 9/10. Second best Beatles album. They don't miss. 'A day in the life' is an excellent closer but all the songs here have charm. Superb album
Incredible album. Sometimes challenges me more than other Beatles albums with its abbrasiveness and gender blending. Fav tracks: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds, Getting Better, A Day in the Life. Saved a song: Y RYM: Y (#42)
Classic
Ah, enfin quelque chose d’excellent ! Cet album, je l’adore, il est audacieux, créatif, il part dans plein de directions, il est parfait. Ce sera mon premier album noté 5 étoiles.
Tolles und kurzweiliges Album mit Welthits wie „Lucy in the Sky with diamonds“ & „Whith A Little Help from My Friends“ & „When I’m Sixry Four“. Die Zeit war Cool in Liverpool 😊.
Cool
Arguably one of the best albums ever.
Fire!!!
10/10 no notes
Perfect album.
Best of the Beatles albums, I think 🤔
Drugs.
Now we’re getting somewhere. I’ve obviously heard Sgt. Pepper’s many times, but I wouldn’t say this is an album I’ve heard more the 8-10 times. As I sit at my desk listening to at least the first several songs, it hit me, these songs don’t represent rock ‘n’ roll or psychedelic songs. They come across as songs that have been around since the beginning of time, that parents pass on to their child generation after generation. Timeless is an appropriate word, but also, they are harmless songs that can teach you something about how you might want to live your life. Like all the songs you sang with your parents as a very little child. Mary Had a Little Lamb is trash compared to Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds. I’d much rather hear Getting Better than Ba, Ba, Black Sheep. And these Beatles songs sound like those types of songs. Am I the only one that the Beatles, or at least Sgt. Pepper’s, hits this way? It’s like these songs have permeated the fabric of our lives. We know these songs without knowing them. I love the Rolling Stones, they’re probably my all-time favorite band, but the Beatles are on another level. Oh, wow, I just realized She’s Leaving Home is on this album. You might not know this song as well as the hits, but for my money, it’s a top 5 Beatles song. It captures the feelings of both a teenage girl and her parents. The girl longs to leave home and live on her own, but is still a little scared to be on her own. Her parents are angry at her for leaving after all they’ve done for her and they also fear what will happen to her. This one gets me, like get the Kleenexes. As for one critique, I hate the sitar, or at least how everyone picked up the sitar after the Beatles introduced it to rock ‘n’ roll. Now, when the Beatles use it, it’s not so annoying, but these other bands who started messing with it aren’t the Beatles. With that said, Within In Without You is brilliant. And, if the whole album isn’t brilliant enough, it ends with the masterpiece, A Day in the Life. I can’t imagine what people thought when they first heard that song. It’s still a goose bump inducer today. Not only is this an album you must hear before you die, all the Beatles' albums are must hear before you die. But start from the beginning and go to the end if you have never done so. You can really hear how these guys grew as songwriters, musicians, and human beings.
It's fab, of course, and it's all been said before, but even ignoring all that, the fact remains Sgt Pepper... is just an album sizzling with energy and enthusiasm. Is it the best album ever - is it even the best Beatles album? Probably not, but that energy and invention is endlessly irresistible almost 60 years later.
Buenisimo! Canciones q no tenia en el radar: - Fixing a Hole - She's Leaving Home - Within Without You
About time for some Beatles. Arguably the best album by arguably one of history’s best bands. Excellent listen.
I've been waiting for some Beatles and it didn't disappoint. A fun album top to bottom. Hats off Sgt!
Amazing groundbreaking album!
Fun happy upbeat
95
Another classic Beatles album. You can really get a sense of the art pop/prog rock sound being formed. But the best thing about the album is how eclectic it is; the sounds really move between a crazy variety of sounds, influences, and themes. This album also fully plays in the space of "themes that just were not explored in pop music at the time" (She's Leaving Home is a great example of this).
Always a great listen!
Have not listened to this album for many years . It still holds up. Their song arrangements still amazing. A Day In The Life sounds better every time it plays
Outstanding. So many memories listening to this as a kid. “Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite!” was the first song I ever deemed a favorite song. Love this album.
Probably my fourth or fifth favorite Beatles album yet still obviously a 5.
Easily my favorite Beatles album, they manage to not put any truly terrible songs on here.
I wish I could listen to Sgt. Pepper again for the first time. I wish I could listen to Sgt. Pepper for the first time in 1967.
Is it a masterpiece or did they boys just do a lot of drugs and goof around in the studio?
favorite song-fixing a hole best song-a day in the life hidden gem-she’s leaving home deep cut-being for the benefit of mr. kite!
And it’s not even their best album. But if you weren’t alive before this came out, there’s no way to fully comprehend the way this record shifted the trajectory of rock and roll.
Not my favorite from the fab four. But it's still masterpiece after masterpiece.
Can a record be overrated but still one of the greatest of all time? Some of these songs I’ve known for literally as long as I can remember. I sang “When I’m 64” in Kindergarten chorus. Other tracks such as “She’s Leaving Home” and “Good Morning Good Morning” (which anticipates Pink Floyd’s Piper by only a couple of months), I didn’t remember as well but are still bangers. Layers and layers to enjoy in this one.
a true classic
My favorite Beatles album since I was a kid! Such an iconic cover and story behind this album. A Day In The Life is still one of my fav songs from them.
GOAT! c ****** Alles stimmt hier, Jhon, Paul, George und Paul, die Songs, das Cover, die Zeit, das Konzept(-Album), alles... und das beim 97ten Album, besser wird es nicht mehr...
It’s okay. 😏
A day in the life
Iconic album that was a great bridge between their early and later sounds. A Day in the Life is one of the greatest songs ever written.
Outstanding creativity with the music, majority of the songs are top tier, and the album tells a story throughout that is unlike any other. This is what The Beatles brought to the world in all of their music. The genius of all of them and what they contributed will live forever.
Absolutely fantastic. Eye and ear opening the first time I ever heard it. While I don't think it's my favorite Beatles album, it's such a great document of studio exploration and really figuring out what the band could do without getting too weird.
I don’t even know where to begin. What can you say about this album that hasn’t already been said over the last 50+ years? I guess for me it all started in 2020 when I went through my Sgt Peppers phase. My mom was a typical beatlemania girl you’d see screaming on tv in the 60s, so I heard this album plenty growing up but it never really resonated with me until I matured and started reevaluating my taste in music. Once I hit 30 and started actively listening to Sgt Peppers, I understood the fuss. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t just being influenced by mainstream pop culture hype or mob mentality, but if I can recite nearly every lyric to every song, it must’ve resonated with me. We know the hits and it starts out with four right in a row, but the deep tracks like She’s Leaving Home, Mr. Kite, Within You Without You, Lovely Rita are staples as well. And then there’s that final track that convinces you of the album’s genius if you weren’t sold before. Mind you I’m listening in 2020 and beyond, I can’t even imagine the impact this had in 1967. The thing about this album (and The Beatles in general) is that the first time you hear it, you’re surprised how many songs you’re already familiar with. Songs from ‘67 that are still relevant pop music today is quite the sentiment. My only complaints are couldn’t they have just included Strawberry Fields & Penny Lane; and this doesn’t hit me quite like their others (looking at you Revolver and Abbey Road).
It’s hard to mark anything on a classic record down. Still, there are parts of even this that I could do without. Yet, I don’t skip them or shut them off. This record is undeniable and certainly worthy of inclusion on the 1001 albums you must hear before you die.
It's the Beatles. Love the arrangements and experimentation with instruments. Not my most fave album, but love it. Listened before? Y Saved any tracks? Y Gfavorite tracks? All of them ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved it.
FINALLY! It took 104 days for me to get a Beatles album. The arrangements sound fantastic in my earbuds. Great storytelling with lots of whimsy. Absolutely love it! Listened before? Y Saved to library? Y Favorite track(s): With A Little Help From My Friends, Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds, She's Leaving Home, Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!, A Day In The Life ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: Loved it! Saved most or all of the tracks.
Do we even need to listen to rate?
If someone says they’re a Beatles fan then lists this as their favorite album… well… they’re more of a Beatles tourist than an a fan. Interesting concept, some interesting songs, but not heir best work. Still a less than great Beatles album is always a 5 in my books
6 out of 5
One of the best albums of all time. Listened to it a week ago, so not much surprise factor.
Loved the flow and quirkyness
The only Beatles album I ever paid for. I'm not a great fan of concept albums generally, but this one is 92% excellent (you get to guess which track I usually skip)
I mean…what is there more to say that hasnt already been said. Wow that first half is a classic...39 mins on the shorter side but just so classic.
It's as good as it's reputation. Maybe even better. At the time it was a staggering achievement. Now, it's a fucking brilliant album. The tracklisting is perfect, it sounds like summer and it has the best George Harrison song.
Pretty great. Can't say anything that hasn't already been said. 5/5
C’mon man
my favourite beatle is Gregor Samsa
My second Beatles album - it seems like I got their hippie albums first - my first Beatles album I got generated was Revolver back at album no. 6! This album is crazy good, it fits the definition of the saying 'all killer no filler.' The album is overall quite whimsical which seems to be the case for those first-wave psychedelic albums. I love how welcoming the title track is ("We hope you enjoy the show") and then it sends off with a great transition to one of the best songs ever made "With A Little Help From My Friends." "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" is probably the epitome of this album and the hippie-era in general, referencing drugs, sounding innocent, playful, etc. "Getting Better" references issues John Lennon had such as, being violent - especially towards women - even if he was far from perfect, it says a lot to face the issues head on. "Fixing A Hole" and "She's Leaving Home" sound like movie musicals, just really lovely. The song "Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite!" is extremely radical considering where the four guys were at just 2 years prior. hell, even compared to the songs that they made that came after this. "Within You Without You" has George continue with Indian-themed songs, I believe it being just about the halfway mark is great song placement, no sooner, no later. The next one is a song that Paul wrote when he was only 14! ("When I'm Sixty Four") That song is a good contender for my favourite song of all time, it's just THAT good, everything about it. "Lovely Rita" has one of my favourite piano and singing parts, I believe this song is so underrated I wish people would give this song a chance. "Good Morning Good Morning" the album could've really done without this song, I would only ever listen to it if I'm listening to Sgt Pepper, never outside of it. The reprise of the title track is a lot my explosive then the non-reprise version wish the first track had more oomph to it more than it already does. "A Day In The Life" starts with the crowd applause from the reprise of the title track, then it picks up steam with the piano leading the charge, the song has these cinematic-like orchestral section which is just so great. I also think Ringo's drumming is EXCEPTIONAL on this song, then it all accumulates into the final ringing chord. It the song and also the album ends with this hidden track-like section (before it was cool to do so.) Some music journalists and publications consider this the best rock album ever, which I thought was ludicrous when I listened to it for the first time, but that title the album holds is completely valid; even it isn't my personal favourite rock album.
Its great! I really like the last song in the album. Have already listened to most of it before and I still love it.
Is it the greatest album ever? No. Is it the best Beatles album? Also no. But is it still a conceptual masterpiece of vivid imagery and experimentation? YES! Best track hands down is A Day In The Life.
The Beatles are untouchable. I didn't want to stop listening to the album. It really is a great work of art. I don't have much else to say, except that my favorite track is probably the title track. Each track was a delight, though!
one of the easiest 5's i will ever give
YOU KNOW
Many more astute, qualified, and eloquent people have reviewed this album before me, and I think they've done a great job. Nothing I say here will add any value, with the possible exception of my very simple review: I listened twice in a row. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I want to give 6 stars
this is the beatles i would reach for
Sem dúvida nenhuma, considero este álbum umanobra-prima que redefiniu a música pop e rock da época com sua mistura eclética de estilos. As letras sagazes e introspectivas refletem a contracultura dos anos 60, criando uma experiência imersiva, uma verdadeira celebração da criatividade e da experimentação artística.
Love this album. Great variety throughout, and very inventive. I'm a sucker for the clarinet, so "When I'm 64" has got a lot of airtime.
Fav. 100/10
Just the best. Rocking the concept album idea and just full of bops and bangers and tearjerkers. I hadn't listened to this album in a while and I'm grateful that I got the nudge to relisten.
Classic great etc etc
It’s better on cassette but that’s hardly a complaint. This is your favourite album’s favourite album.
Lifechanging - Listened to it maybe 500 times
i dislike the beatles but even i have to admit this album fuckin rules and those british kids do this style of rock better than most of their contempories. 4.5/5 rounded up
What a crazy pull for my first album. Faves: With a Little Help From My Friends, She's Leaving Home, Within You Without You, A Day in the Life
14/10?
Of course.
Absolute banger.
It's not Wings but it is pretty much perfect.
A beautifully constructed album and a sweet, playful expression of one's mind opening up and (although I wasn't there) of the Boomer generations' experience of that as youngsters in that moment specifically. Complete with some of the awks that brings. Still, every time it gets towards a bit too trite the pace becomes playful and daft again. Every time it seems like it might be overly silly and absurd it dives deep into some sincere expression. Accomplished, silly, wide open expanses. Hope, yearning, learning and the circus. I'd like to tu-r-r-r-n y-ou-u-u-u o-o-o-n-n-nn....
This isn't my favorite Beatles' album, but it's not far off. It's not a bombastic album by any stretch, but it's one that changed the landscape of music in general for generations to come. Beautiful baroque pop rock with a range of influences from world music and psychedelia.
🫠🫠🫠
Um, it's The Beatles!
This was a really good album
Outstanding, at their best
Just great all around. No notes
Worth the 5 just for A Day in the Life (original opinion, do not steal).
This isn't my favorite Beatles project but as a project it's still one of the best pure psychedelic albums of all time, if not the best. Even when trying to make music that's weird or inaccessible or simplistic, they can't help but make perfect songs. This album is rich with some of the most warm and interesting psyche music ever, I can't imagine what it would be like to listen to this is 1967.
If I had to pick one album to divide music als an art form in a “before” and “after” it would be this one.
It's a perfect album. Melodies that are perfect, and not too much. A melancholic vibe in the background. 10/10
album is wank
💯
This is probably a 4.9 for me, but we'll do a quick round up. An iconic and game changing album that has both really interesting and incredible songs .
There was a moment of dread when this thing came up and I knew I was going to owe Alex an apology. I guess I do like psychadelic rock - and this album is part of it. I don't think there's a single miss on this album and its historic influence on the sound for the decade afterwards.
4.9/5 Just amazing. faves: she's leaving home, getting better, a day in the life
They did this two years after making poppy songs like"You're Going To Lose That Girl." Absolutely remarkable progression in so short a span. What a ground breaking studio masterpiece this is. Underrated if anything.
I have too much to say. It's brilliant, obviously.
This one is an easy five and my personal favorite from the Beatles. Catchy and in no way lacking depth. By the time the second namesake of the album comes on there's a slight sadness like you know the band is about to leave the stage. Luckily, unlike a concert, you can just replay the album again.
I've really changed my mind on The Beatles throughout this project, especially after hearing a lot of music before and after they impacted the history of it. My project had most of their early albums in my first 200, and then abbey road at 250. I am at 950, and I just got White Album a few weeks back, and now Sgt. Peppers (here's hoping after I send this Revolver shows up.) Albums I know are on this list, I refuse to listen until they generate, even if it takes 700... This is one of the few albums that I truly can't wrap my head around how it sounds for it's time. It both sounds like the 60's, but also sounds ahead of anything of the year 1967 (besides VU & Nico debut) I thoroughly enjoyed this album. There's a juxtaposition with the rating on this album. I can see the case for rating this lower than expected based on not liking The Beatles, whether you think it holds up to their other albums, or even are just tired of the 60's sound in general due to Dimery's ever so bias towards 4-5 certain genres. However, there's also an inherit case to be made, that the pure gravitas of the album, and the culture shock it emitted, can only make it a 4 or 5 at the very minimum. One that gets harder to understand and empathize with the impact, the farther we get from the 1960's. Whether it's the outlook the west took after the album came out in the Summer of Love, the full-forced incorporation of eastern music, the artistic expression of album covers, sleeves, promotion, and easter eggs in song and design, the musical directions this would inspire, or of course, the stampeding statement trying to normalize, that this has been sparked by the use of LSD among others, you could argue that never has an album so sharply impacted the world, and it could only be a high rating. When you hear bands proudly declare that their grandiose album, that they poured everything into artistically, is their "Sgt. Pepper's", that's gotta count for something right?
It’s hard to write a review for this album. It’s an utter masterpiece. So many textures, so many new things to hear every time you listen, incredible songwriting.
While I don't think some of the earlier Beatles records are great, there's no denying that this is one of the best records we have. Every one of them are at their best here. I'll admit that some of my enjoyment of this album is that I've heard it a bajillion times and have heard so much analysis about it, but so what it's the fucking beatles. 5/5
Classic album, no complaints!
this album has consistently been one of my favorite albums ever produced by the Beatles. The sonic exploration that ranges from art pop to psychedelia to Indian Classical while using instrumentation ranging from guitars and drums to strings, fifes, sitars, and dilrubas make this album a wildly creative and unique exploration. It's just such a fun and playful album that also creates a sense of wonder and awe. Incredible album.
It's Sgt. Pepper's wtf else do I have to say?
Favourite songs: With A Little Help From My Friends, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, A Day In The Life
One of the best
Masterpiece!
what can I say about the first ever concept album that hasn’t been said a million times before? sgt. pepper’s not just whim and experimentation in a cartoonish package, it’s an ode to artistic freedom. I did, in fact, enjoy the show. whoever invented lsd, thank you for giving us this masterpiece.
A Day In The Life is actually so perfect
Can’t hit five stars fast enough.
Oh hell yeah. Love me some Lonely Hearts. Wont be much of a review here just gonna enjoy revisiting a classic.
Start to finish lp
I mean. What else can be said? It's great.
Not what I expected from the Beatles. The music is all over the place. And maybe that’s what great music is about. Perfect bars, notes combined with a lack of a set structure. All the songs seem go be imbued with instruments and vocals that saturate the listener and their attention to the brim. Not just expecting attention but almost demanding it. Never did I ever think that a Beatles’ album could be so musicallly, lyrically and structurally be so many things and yet be just confined to one song. Too good!! So happy that this was the first I ever heard.
My favourite
Still one of my favorites from the Beatles. No skips required. Just listen and enjoy
Classic
A contender for the greatest album ever made, and it wasn't even the Beatles' best album.
It took a decade but I finally love this album. I always struggled with its reputation as the greatest album of all time when it always sounded a bit novelty to me, as if the forward thinking production was the only reason people loved it. Once I got over that, I can see this as just a really fun, vibrant album. It’s not their best and I prefer them much rockier, but it was nice to finally get it.
I think every kid in the 90s who went through a Beatles phase in elementary/middle school additionally went through an even deeper Sgt. Pepper’s phase. I have listened to this album all the way through so many times and thought it was the most profound thing I’d ever heard when I was a kid. And you know what? It’s still one of the most profound things I’ve ever heard. I don’t love the George song on this one, and I’ve never loved “Good Morning Good Morning,” but “She’s Leaving Home” and “A Day In The Life” might be two of the best Beatles songs of all time. This might be the Beatles best album, or maybe it’s just nostalgia, but I’m still as obsessed with this album as I was when I went through my first Beatles phase.
Such lush and interesting instrumentation throughout. Paul's bass lines (and lead guitar on the title track and good morning good morning) off the charts. Ringo playing those tasty drums. A Day in the Life is that genius shit. Probably could have left its last few seconds (5:11 mark) on the cutting room floor. I do appreciate the lyrics: "I Never Gucci Any Other Way." 🤪
A blast of guitar that's instantly recognizable. "With a little Help" morphs into "Lucy in the Sky.". The plane ride to post colonial India with the first biggest Rock band in the World that resulted in "Within You Without You." Sgt Peppers is more than an album. It's a postcard from The Beatles to give future generations an insight into what the end of the road felt like for George, Paul, John, and Ringo.
Considered one of the best albums of all time... for good reason.
Day 54 Nearly 60 years old and still blows most modern music out of the water, truly groundbreaking. Not quite perfect for me as I always skip within you, without you, but it’s damn close 9/10 Highlights With a Little Help From My Friends Getting Better A Day in The Life
This is one of the few albums I know entirely.
Great album
Är detta den första Beatles-skivan?! I alla fall så kan jag ju sätta en femma olyssnat. Vid en genomlyssning är den nog till och med bättre än jag förväntade mig. Nästan att jag behöver en sexa. Genialt, klassiker rakt igenom. De river väggarna runt pop- och rockgenren så att de aldrig kunnat byggas upp igen. Femma med skruv!
The perfect record…I hear it still as I heard it the first time I listened.
After reading the Savage book, I finally understand how this evolved.
One of my favorite Beatles albums. 5/5
I’ve listened to this one many times through and will listen again. It’s a concept album that actually works. It has all the things the Beatles do (the ballads, the fun upbeat ones, the India-inspired, and the plain weird ones). The only song I dislike is Being for the Benefit of Mr. kite, but it can still get 5 stars
How could I not give it 5 stars? Great to listen to again no matter how many times that I’ve heard it.
I heard this album for the first time 9 years after it was issued. Prior to that I had only heard the songs that were featured on the “Blue” album that came out shortly after the band broke up. Anyway, the first time I listened to this album as a teenager, I was mesmerized and went out and bought a copy shortly thereafter. I have loved the album ever since and have listened to it countless times. Even the song, Within You, Without You, which I don’t particularly care for, somehow fits in to the whole listening experience…at least for me. And not to mention the historical significance and creativity. Definitely 5 stars.
The best to ever do it. On this listen, what stood out was benefit of mr. Kite, she's leaving home, and lovely rita. Also, the album cover is phenomenal.
One of the greatest albums of all time. ★★★★★
I'm biased, because I love the Beatles, but this record is a masterpiece that I love even more the older I get.
To me, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" is the ultimate classic Beatles album. It starts with the incredible triad of the title track, "With a Little Help From my Friends" and "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" without losing much of the momentum afterwards. I guess this might be the most reviewed album of all times so I see no point in adding more.
Classic
It's "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"! Of course, it's going to be 5 stars.
Not my favorite, but their best.
Good one
5/5 Sgt peppers... 9.5/10 with a little help from my friend 8/10 Lucy in the sky... 9.5/10 getting better 8.5/10 fixing a hole she's leaving home 8.5/10 for the benefit of mr kite 9/10 within you without you 7/10 when im 64 8.5/10 Lovely Rita 8/10 again good morning 8.5/10 Sgt peppers reprise 8.5/10 a day in the life 9/10 1)Lucy in the sky full of diamonds 2)Sgt peppers 3)a day in the life 4)she's leaving home 5)being for the benefit of mr kite 6)getting better 7)she's leaving home
Game changer when released. Timeless.
Almost 10. Felt too goofy for a 10
my fav beatles one so far
Sometimes the classics are classics for a reason. Because it’s not just the songs, the lyrics or the vibes here. It’s also the production and care George Martin is throwing into every second and beat of every song. It’s the massive influence felt in certain notes and how they’re played. It’s a band stretching its talent to the absolute limit without devolving into chaos. It’s a perfect record.
Overall: 10/10 My tastes have changed a lot since I first heard this one, but it will always remain a classic in my eyes. If people want to call it overrated, that's fine...but I'll always disagree. It's not even my favourite album by The Beatles, but it's probably their masterpiece. How did a band that essentially started out as a boy band make so many incredible albums???? It's so inconceivable to me. The concept of the album is so unimportant to how good it is either. Music just didn't sound like this before this came out. I don't even fully know what to say, I just can't believe these guys existed. Fav Song: Getting Better
The best Beatles album which puts if I. The running for best album ever.
Listening to this a bunch lately has landed me at an unusual ranking of Beatles, which coincidentally is the reverse order they will have (actually) died in: Paul > Ringo > George > John I will not be taking questions at this time
Unquestioned classic. Such an impressive soundscape.
nice to have an obscure album , not sure if these felllas will ever make it big though . 5
I listened to it just to make show of what I already knew. I think Fixing A Hole is one of my favorite songs ever. Lol. Idk why and it’s probably not. 5 stahs
Not my fav Beatles album, but I was ground breaking.
classic stuff
One of the BEST ALBUMS OF ALL TIME BY ANY ONE OR GROUP OF ARTISTS
Grateful to this album for how much good progressive rock it inspired
One of the greatest albums ever, but not the Beatles best.
I’ve always written the beetles off because I just couldn’t get into the sound. I think their songs are incredible but (super hot take), I just prefer the covers I hear. Throwing this up on the stereo, this is a masterpiece. Truly think this is one of the best albums ever made.
Its a full story, its rock, its art. I knew the Beatles was GOATed but I didn't realize they were this good. Favourite Song: Good Morning Good Morning Honourable Mention: When I'm Sixty-Four, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
Look, this is a great album, there’s no denying that. I know all the songs by heart. But every time I listen to it, I don’t feel the need to play it again. I don’t think there are any truly killer tracks on this album, except for one of my absolute favorite Beatles songs, “A Day in the Life.” The rest are fine, even good. I enjoy the whimsical “When I’m Sixty-Four” and “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!” I think my main gripe is that this album is often hailed as one of the greatest of all time, yet I don’t believe it’s the Beatles’ best work. To me, it’s slightly overrated. It’s an iconic album, one where a 4 feels too harsh but a 5 implies I believe it’s the greatest album ever. I guess it’s still a 5-star but a weak one.
mustve been inspired by panic at the discos second album
All time classic, lives up to it's reputation
I love it. I want more of it. How many bands can do whatever the hell they want and it all sounds amazing and groundbreaking? Not many.
Classic
Asides from some lyrics that have not aged well in places, no notes. A truly classic album and one where you can tangibly feel it was a major culture shift.
The Beatles needs no introduction when it comes to their influence on the industry, but Sgt Pepper is one of their magnum opuses to the world. Challenged and inspired by the psychedelic sound of the Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds, this album takes the tight rhythm and lyricism that Rubber Soul and Revolver had and cranks it up to overdrive. Variety is the name of the game here, and it’s what makes this album so relistenable. It’s like the musical manifestation of the feeling you get traveling around the world, in the sense that there’s always something new to hear. Whether it be from the truly psychedelic nature of songs like Within You Without You and Lucy in the Sky, the tender warmth the strings in She’s Leaving Home has, or the live feeling that sets the whole thing up, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, the album sets itself as a melting pot of ideas that each song flawlessly executes. There’s really no song that treads the same ground whatsoever (Besides Sgt Pepper Reprise), and there’s always something new and groundbreaking that hooks you in. When it comes to pacing, there’s practically no album that’s as tightly packed as this one. It’s only a 40 minute listen, but it really feels like it’s longer because of how well it makes the most out of its run time. Each song has more than enough room to breathe, doesn’t overstay its welcome, and more importantly, tells the story it wants to tell. For me personally, it’s my 2nd favorite studio Beatles Album, and the album everyone thinks about when you even mention the Beatles. There’s no better sampler platter of what makes these guys special, and deserves all the praise it gets.
I think it would be hard to dispute this albums greatness. Time may have worn people out on this album but it was and still is, a masterpiece. The production. The writing. The vocals. The music. It was so far ahead of its time I am not sure we have actual gotten “ it” yet.
No words needed …
VERY GOOD. I fucking love The Beatles (vinyl)
I remember my music teacher at primary school teaching us Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds … at the time I had no idea it was a Beatles song but I’ve loved it ever since (she also taught us when I’m sixty-four which I loved not so much 😁)
5/5 I love this album, but I'm biased and I've heard it a million times. They are by far my favourite band of all time. Won't elaborate more.
If there was any album that I wished I could have made, it's Sgt. Pepper.
It’s not even in my top 5 Beatles albums but it’s great. When I’m Sixty-Four, A Day in the Life, Fixing A hole are all kick ass songs, and none of those probably are considered a “hit” from this album. It’s hard not to grade on a curve for the Beatles, but the 5 years from 1965-1969 are the most fertile period anyone has ever had in pop music, and so even though this album exists next to Revolver and Rubber Soul and Help and Abbey Road and the White Album and Magical Mystery Tour, it’s still great.
While it’s not my favorite Beatles album, it’s still a 5 for me because of how it showcases the band’s many creative directions at this point. The duality of Paul and John in Day In the Life is a perfect example of this.
Certainly one of the most important albums in the history of rock, but still not the best Beatles album
Incredible stuff all around. Legendary.
The ultimate masterpiece. This album was, and is still, an unprecedented game changer in the history of music.
Classic that inspired the posthumous release of Mac Millers Ballonerism. I’ve done quite the deep dive on both albums and would recommend comparing the parallels of each. Both leaning into the more experimental side of their music portfolio.
A classic. Remind me to self to listen to all their albums consecutively and try to guess how many drugs they were on for each one.
Top 100 and a fave since I was 15 or something.
Classic
Masterpiece
love it
First Beatles album i've ever listened to. What strikes me right off the bat is that it's a bit more rock and roll than I expected. Honestly my only other experience with the Beatles is slow songs like Yesterday and Hey Jude, which although are classics in their own right, i'm sick of hearing. So something with a bit more tempo is appreciated. This album is basically the result of The Beatles getting sick of everything and everyone, including they're psychotic fans, going out to "find themselves" and evolving....with the help of drugs. I love that they started trolling their fans with this and there's almost a mocking tone of "This is how we are now, deal with it." that really pushed peoples perception of The Beatles and pop music in general. I can see how it connected with the youth. This is definitely the catalyst to the free spirit "Peace and love" era of the 70's. Completely revolutionary, and LSD experimentation seems obvious in the tracks. From the India influences that show up in Getting Better and Within You Without You; and the weird little twangy alien voices they use in Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds. This album probably hits different while on acid. There's a couple songs that stand out in Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite with it's carnival sound, and When I'm Sixty Four with it's weird old school Mickey Mouse up and down plodding around sound. Within You and Without You as well, just incredibly unique due to it's Indian sound since one of the members went to India to study the Sitar during their sabbatical. Within You Without You is transcendental in meaning and sound with it's Indian mantras. Just really cool hearing a band push the boundaries of peoples expectations and then see how it really impacted people with the 70's hippy movement. Lyrically, there's nothing super revolutionary as they seemed to get inspiration for songs from just random stuff anywhere from a parking meter attendant to stories they saw in the tabloids. The musical choices made to accompany these humdrum lyrics is what's really interesting.......which I guess still rings true today. Doesn't really matter what you sing about as long as the music works. Within You Without You and A Day In The Life have the most powerful overall message. A Day In the Life gave me goosebumps.
It's Sgt peopers
Trop bien Manque peut-être d'harmonie générale mais je reecouterai
There is nothing really new I can say about this iconic album but here is my summary and personal opinion: It's obviously one of the greatest albums ever made, and the most well known Beatles album along with Abbey Road among the general public. The idea of creating an alterego band whose songs are played by The Beatles was a brilliant idea. This is one of the first concept albums ever and I've always found amazing how the songs flow into each other despite of the variety of sounds (psychedelic rock, baroque pop, classical Indian music etc.) the album has a very compact sound. It's a real album's album. The sound engineering is absolutely pioneering in rock music. With this album the band has completely changed the view about how an album means in rock music, they raised the bar incredibly high with this one. And last, there are many great closing on albums but A Day in the Life is no doubt the most iconic album closing songs ever. On a more personal level, I loved this album from age 10 when I found this on an old vinyl at home in the mid 90s. I didn't understand any English but liked the variety of the sounds of the album and the colourful album cover. My focus has shifted on other Beatles albums more later (White Album, Revolver, Abbey Road etc.) and many fans think Sgt. Pepper's is not even in the Top 3 greatest Beatles albums, let alone their best, but whenever I listen to this album it makes me remember how brilliant it is and how much I love it.
5/5 no notes
Mengawang awang, warna psikedelik paling awal yang pernah saya dengar.
One of the best ever
4.9
Probably the greatest album ever, this created the concept of an album as a piece of art rather than a few singles and then some filler tracks. As immense as it is, the project is even more impressive when accounting for the fact that Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane were a product of these recording sessions, even though neither track was included on the album
One of my favorite albums of all time, unique change of pace for one of the most popular grpups in history.
pretty freaking good
A work of art, timeless, brought immense joy and energy to my Monday morning
absolute donger of an album
This is what the cosmos are made of
Masterpiece. And I pity the fools who disagree.
This album always felt disjointed and less thought out than the other Beatles albums, and definitely shows a transition point from mid-period Beatles (Rubber Soul and Revolver) and later-period (The Beatles, Abbey Road, Let It Be). Because of this, it has always been a little less compelling to me than the other albums. Still, it's the Beatles, so it is better than almost anything else out there.
🎩
Phenomenal classic
Why are The Beatles timeless? This is a real question? They are. There is no doubt about it. But how? Why them? How was this early rock-n-roll band to become what they did? Why them (again)? I don't know. Maybe I don't care even, because ... damn! What a band they were. I, for one, am super glad they do exist and that we can still marvel at their work today. I think my youtube algorithm might have made a mix instead of the actual album, but it is the same songs in different orders at any rate... and it really doesn't matter anyhow because The Beatles are simply one of the best bands that ever existed and anything they did was worthy.
No comments necessary
I am not a Beatles Boy but I recognize that A Day in The Life might be the greatest song ever written. This is a perfect album and it’s a shame that we have ever other Beatles album on this list instead of just having one to truly appreciate.
I think what Sgt. Pepper's does best is show The Beatles ability to create a concept album that spans across 4 or 5 different genres, some of them bordering on satire and the whole thing comes of without an ounce of irony. I'm not sure any other band could do this. It's not good because it's bordering on absurd, or good despite being absurd it's somehow both at the same time and still managed to have almost universal appeal and appraise. I think the song A Day in the Life almost feels like an inside joke at the end of the album. The previous track Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band book ends the opening track with the same name and controls the absurdity and diversity all the songs between then after it wraps up you get perhaps one of the greatest songs ever written (IMHO) almost as an afterthought. It gives the song space and room to breathe at the end of the album to stand out and underline just how amazing it is. I can only imagine the first time hearing this on vinyl and thinking "what just happened? Start it again."
Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band is one of those albums that is so widely praised that it just has to be overrated, right? Honestly, no, I don't think so. It's a genre defining psychedelic rock album that is solid front-to-back and ends on one of the best songs ever recorded. Honestly, I don't really have anything else to say about it.
Ja mei, des is halt Sgt Pepper, ne.
1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die: 15/1001 While I've heard the Beatles before (how could you not know With A Little Help From My Friends), I've never intentionally listened to one of their full albums. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band seems to have very favorable ratings, but isn't necessarily viewed by the masses as pinnacle Beatles. That stuns me because if this isn't the best they have to offer, I am absolutely thrilled to listen to more. It's undeniable how they changed music, I can say today they changed music for me. An early concept album, the opening track sets the stage for this ulterior band of which the original I already lack a level of familiarity with. The setting has the immediate feel of an orchestra warming up before a show as they then dive into a traditional rock sound that put a grin on my face. The crowd noise followed by the horns, *chefs kiss.* The seamless transition into With A Little Help From My Friends is so seamless and instantly captivating. If the first track wasn't a bit jarring to me in how different The Beatles would be comparated to what I expected, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds solidified the unique, experimental sound I didn't know to expect... And I loved it! The album continues between these various pivots, with songs to come working in the context of the album. Each offers unique flair and sound, even if not mind blowing singles I'd play otherwise. This point is proven with She's Leaving Home which is an orchestral ballad with beautiful instrumentation. It's this song that sets the tone for the middle of the album and solidifies the genre bending nature that only makes the album more intriguing overall. It's not connected to the thematic outline introduced at the beginning of the album even if When I'm Sixty Four has some of those undertones the other songs almost intentionally defy. Though it all flows with recognizable patterns and melodically interesting music that, while not all interwoven, bring about a flow that makes the album engaging. The middle of the album feels more like a day in the life of, a journey undertaken by individuals that's brought to life through the instrumentation and the lyrics. Good Morning Good Morning perfectly encapsulating this idea. Ultimately, it's through these parts that sandwich the album, with the Reprise coming back through, theoretically bringing the show to a close. But it's the seamless transition to A Day in the Life that finally fills this role, bringing the alternate ego and daily monotony all together in one final closure--- well, a couple final closures within a closure. The song feels like two seperate pieces that play on each other embolic of Lennon and McCarthys unparalleled partnership. A masterpiece that ends only to begin again with a final statement only true artists like The Beatles could have made work. Podium (extended): 1. A Day In The Life 2. Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds 3. With A Little Help From My Friends 4. She's Leaving Home 5. Getting Better 6. When I'm Sixty Four Honorable Mention: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (+Reprise) There are so many genuinely good songs on here. There are songs many tone strucks. There are songs many experimental elements. There's fun. There's culture. There's harmony. There's chaos. There's meaning. There's beauty. Cover to cover, it's creative and artful. It had me smiling throughout the day and was the best full introduction to The Beatles I could've asked for. It's for these reasons I give Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band 5/5 stars.
5 stars for the creativity and weirdness. Hell ya Paul
It's "Sgt. Pepper's" so it's not going to be any lower than 5 stars. Though I could never replicate the feeling of my 9 year-old self listening to this over and over, singing along with it, letting it inhabit my subconscious, it is still a wonder. No album opened the possibilities of pop music more than this one. Each song is a finely wrought masterpiece culminating with the most creative, mind-expanding song of all: "A Day in the Life." Yet, the older I get, the more I see how this is far from their best album. It doesn't hold together as a concept album for one thing. There are way too many Paul songs on it for another (and not enough George). But it's still "Sgt Pepper's," for Christ's sake, and it will always hold a very special place in my heart.
Really nothing to say about this that hasn't been said. It is a straight up masterpiece, a perfect album, Ive listened to it countless times from a young age. I imagine listening to this in 1967 was akin to whiplash, ending side 1 with Mr Kite, probably thinking "what the hell was that" and then flipping it over to Within you Without You. Wish that's how I first experienced it. It fires on all cylinders, contains their best creative impulses, and even though the loose chaos collage of the White Album is my favorite, I love the tightly constructed madness of Sgt Pepper, pushing so many boundaries in a clean 45 minutes
Always one of my favorites. Didn't listen to it the day it was generated since I am disappointed that its given me Revolver and this before #50. Listened to it plenty of times over the years and is an easy 5 star album.
Not much to say. Great
I’ve heard bits and pieces of Sgt Peppers over the years; after all, the album is prolific to an obnoxious degree. Having finally sat down with it, none of the noise around this album seemed to matter very much. I clicked with these songs in a way that’s going to take me many more listens to fully understand why. This is the only Beatles album I think I’ll ever need - and as a bonus my first purchase as a result of this list! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
A masterpiece. If there’s a track I like least it’s Mr Kite.
Not my favorite or even the best Beatles album. But it’s the Beatles. You can tell acid was an influence here. My favorites on this album are Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!, Within You Without You, A Day In The Life.
A classic.
Words simply cannot describe how impactful this album is, every track is apart of this baroque and beautiful story driven by the character of Billy Shears(ironically who was accused of replacing McCartney)
This album was released during what truly was the golden era of rock. Between Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys and McCartney and Lennon of the Beatles, they were setting new standards for everyone else to follow. Depending on the day of the week, this is no worse than my second favorite Beatles album, with "MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR" being the other. It was a real pleasure to have this selection roll up today!
Absolute classic
This project will forever be special to me because it inspired the name Lucy for my car <333
this album was my fav to learn about for my Beatles class… playing it all the way through again and listening for all the fun new instruments, cray recording techniques, drugs etc was awesome I heart this album so much
10 stars.
BRABO DEMAIS, 5 ESTRELAS. JA OUVI ESSE ALBUM 3 VEZES E CONTINUA MARAVILHOSO
Loved pulling this album out from my dad's collection when I was a kid. Great cover. I learned to enjoy those songs when I was a tot and the album was 10 yrs old or so. It's murderer's row on popular songs that still get airplay today... start off with the title track (111M listens), "With A Little Help..." (155M), "Lucy In The Sky..." (207M), "When I'm 64" (108M) and " A Day In The Life" (147M). Holy cow! Then you throw in the glue tracks that are hits in their own right with "Getting Better", "Fixing A Hole", "Lovely Rita" There are a few misses (for me at least) with "Mr. Kite", "Within You..." but rarely do even the great bands bat .1000. 4.7 stars.
What can I say about this classic? To me, the genius is in its overarching theme, creating their alter ego Lonely Hearts Club Band and the performance. It's brilliant and works together for me more as a whole conceptual piece--the sum is greater than the individual parts (yet the individual songs are also brilliant). I never tire of listening to this work of art.
Top 3 greatest albums of all time.
The Beatles siempre funciona bien
My mum has the original lp
I think I like almost all Beatles songs.
Pointless to give an opinion on this. Like trying to explain why breathing is cool or sunny days are nice.
Brilliant
I despise it when I hear "oh, the Beatles, they were overrated. This album was from 1967, have a listen you people who use this phrase and give your head a wobble. Massive gear change for music this was, pop music yes, but a mash up of all sorts that you just couldn't put in a specific genre, as a lot of this had never been heard or experienced ever before until 1967. To think Strawberry Fields & Penny Lane didn't even make it on this album! Am I a massive Beatles fan? No, not especially, but I am a massive fan of music and for that I am grateful & thank them. All you "overrated haters" can do one.
Totally marvellous and iconic.
Some great songs and music
Important turning point album for the Beatles. One of my all time favorites.
What can you say about this album that hasn't already been said? It's a true classic: production, songwriting, performance all top tier.
An almost perfect album. Almost. Still an easy 5. Brilliant.
i found an original vinyl from the release year at a small thrift store a few years ago and ofc i got it! such a great and iconic album. she’s leaving home makes me tear up, such a beautiful song. every song on this album is just so good. top tier beatles album for sure. 5+/5
I’m a Beatles fanboy and this is one of their best. When you have three of the best songs of all time on one album then it’s hard for me to not think it’s a masterpiece. 5/5
One of the best albums, of course. It might be the best ever. The final song, A Day In The Life, may also be The Beatles finest song. Listening to it again in 2025, it remains timely, perhaps because it is timeless. The compositions impeccable, including lyrics. The production is a masterclass. The musicians at peak. Even the album art extraordinary. Possibly flawless.
Amazing album
no comments
no se puede describir con palabras lo de este disco y esta gente. Es realmente perfecto. No existe obra de mayor impacto. No inventaron todo, agarraron todo lo que había y lo transformaron en el cielo hecho disco.
jajaja
It's Sgt. Pepper. It's very nearly perfect.
Such an interesting album, I love to listen to it. The mix of different sounds , harmonies , well structured lyrics make it such a piece of history for my ears. This enormous band has influence so many others , and definitely this was a breakthrough in their career and in music history.
Тут разве надо что-то писать?
It's the fucking Beatles, what else am I supposed to do
Banger
It's an adorable album that I don't mind hearing from time to time.
What’s there to say that hasn’t already been said
A masterpiece
yep it's still pretty good
Fun listen
Not sure it's because of the overall quality of the songs or the familiarity but if this can't get a 5 then I'm not sure what can
This still sounds great to me. There may be 1 or 2 Beatles albums I prefer to this, but they were never quite this gear before or after.
Landmark. I’m still trying to learn to play “A day in the life” after weeks of practice, so until I crack that its a full set of stars from me
Well.... it's sgt pepper's
There’s three ways to hear this classic: the original mono (authorized by the band), the original stereo mix (done without the band’s input as mono was still the priority back in 1967), and Giles Martin’s 2017 stereo remix. I highly recommend listening to all three versions.
One of the most wildly entertaining albums ever produced. This is the Beatles at their best: and that's saying quite a lot, of course! There's nothing I could say here that would add to the voluminous commentary already written about this record, so I'll just note how much FUN they all seem to be having here.
Outstanding work from a band at or close to their creative best.
The Beatles continue to push the boundaries of popular music with their elaborate psychedelic-infused pop & rock. This album will swoop you up and pull you away if you let it. There’s lusciousness and depth in the music, arrangements, harmonies - there’s memorable melodies vocally and musically. It’s very rich on all fronts. Plus it covers a wide ground of contradictions - it’s light and heavy, it’s poppy and experimental, it’s familiar and bizarre. It pushed music forward and it’s fun as hell to listen to.
One of the best albums ever!!
Superb!
Every note is burned into my brain.
There’s nothing about this album that can be said that hasn’t been said before. It’s a masterpiece of sixties pop and well worth your time. Every time another McCartney song has you wondering if the whole record is going to be this twee Lennon arrives with something perfect
One of the greatest (unhinged) albums ever released.
What a triumph. One of the first concept albums, and a damn fine one to start the format off with. Delightful psychedelic sounds all throughout, culminating in one of the best songs of the 60s (and indeed of any decade).
This album, in a vacuum, is a 4 for me. However, it is not in a vacuum - if I hadn't picked up this album when I was 11, I wouldnt have been able to enjoy Pink Floyd, or King Crimson, or a bunch of other bands, and I think that's true for many people. Each song is like an entirely new idea, with a new recording technique being explored. Still fresh after all this time and I should appreciate it more.
Probably only my 5th favorite Beatles album and still maybe a top 30 all-time album. Better than practically every album it inspired. 5/5
Needs no introduction, an absolute classic!
Very few albums have the prestige of being as critically acclaimed and influential as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - and a considerable amount of them are from this modest 1960's Liverpool band you and I know very well. What appears to be and odd and edgy attempt by The Beatles reveals itself as a genius creation with iconic tracks such as With a Little Help from My Friends and, of course, A Day in the Life. All of that while still being capable of keeping a certain coherence, especially in an album with a very specific premise like this one. Being done with the exaltation, I don't think this is a perfect album - nor the best Beatles album, a place I strongly keep for Abbey Road. Some tracks are forgetable and not only don't add anything to the album, but also downgrade it for me (I'm looking at you, With or Without You), so if these songs weren't here, maybe it'd be closer to perfection. Finally, mixed with all the remnants of the transcendental views of George Harrison and some existential tones, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band lacks a good worldview, but it's completely authentical and genius in its presentation. A solid Beatles album - but not their peak, fortunately. -- Pouquíssimos álbuns carregam o prestígio de serem tão aclamados e influentes quanto Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band — e, curiosamente, muitos desses álbuns pertencem àquela modesta bandinha de Liverpool dos anos 60 que você e eu conhecemos muito bem. O que parece ser uma tentativa meio esquisita e ousada dos Beatles acaba revelando uma criação genial, com faixas icônicas como With a Little Help from My Friends e, claro, A Day in the Life. E o mais impressionante: eles ainda conseguem manter uma certa coerência estética, mesmo com a proposta tão específica e teatral do disco. Mas vamos com calma. Não considero esse um álbum perfeito — tampouco o melhor dos Beatles (esse título, para mim, ainda pertence a Abbey Road). Algumas faixas são bem esquecíveis e, na verdade, não só não somam ao conjunto como ainda o enfraquecem (sim, estou falando com você, With or Without You). Sem elas, talvez estivéssemos diante de algo mais próximo da perfeição. Por fim, entre os resquícios de transcendentalismo do George Harrison e tons existencialistas aqui e ali, Sgt. Pepper’s falha ao apresentar uma cosmovisão mais sólida. Mas, em compensação, é absurdamente autêntico e genial em sua entrega. Um álbum sólido dos Beatles — mas, felizmente, não o auge deles. 8/10
I suppose that in general any album I own (such as this one) automatically gets a five-star rating. There may be some exceptions, but after listening to this record, the policy applies. Lots of familiar tunes.
5 stars- classic
One of those obvious perfect albums that changed music forever and everyone knows it. Then "A Day In The Life" comes on and it exceeds even those expectations
There really is not a bad song on this album. I feel this is when the Beatles began to be at their best, they stopped touring and just made memorable melodies and experimental music.
A Day in the Life is a hell of a way to close an album
Bought my first copy at Tower records in London.
From #29, Abbey Road: "[...] there's a photograph of me, 11, in front of the red wrought iron gate to Strawberry Fields, with my little yellow Beatles pin buttons on the jacket. On the way back from a Bed & Breakfast road trip [...]" ... when I only owned one of their proper albums, besides the Red & Blue compilations. This one. 5 stars, duh.
fuck yeah
Not listened to it today as prescribed - but need I?
Bit overrated but overall still great and highly influential
Oh, come on. Really? I own this one on vinyl, CD, Blu-ray, dubbed it on cassette. The Beatles at one of the heights of their powers.
A lot of albums have naysayers but I never understood how you could be critical of this or the very least not understand the appeal 5*
Five Stars... Side one would get 10 stars... side two... well... it gets saved by "A Day in The Life"... a lot of people consider this to be the Beatles best album... i don't... but it's great regardless... special shout out to George Martin.... one of the greatest albums ever, even with a few duds on side two...
The Beatles response to Pet Sounds and it's almost as good! Sometimes the tone shift was a bit jarring but I liked the music so much I can look past it. Favourite: She's Leaving Home (or When I'm Sixty Four) Least: Within You Without You
A classic! Five Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A classic, heard it a thousand times before
Ah, another classic 60s album. Sgt. Peppers is the first Beatles record I listened to from start to finish, and it's a beautiful record of some of their best work. From the opening tracks with the well-played "With a Little Help from My Friends" and "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" to the later "When I'm 64" and the thoughtful ending track "Day in the Life". It's great from start to finish.
Zapomniałem że to jest świetne
Very fun and perfect album 👌
4.5; I docked a half a point because I have always found some of the lyrics to be drug induced random ridiculousness on a lot of the tracks, but everything else is for the most part deserving of the praise, impact, and acclaim this album had. An important classic that helped revolutionize and break the conventions of the time. Joe Cocker has the better With a Little Help From My Friends" though! Just had to throw that in there lol
Look another clue that Paul’s dead, he’s holding a clarinet.
Probably my favourite album from the Beatles, it has a great sense of fun about it and some excellent songs
Still don't think it's the best album of all time (Rolling Stone), but it is pretty great.
