384 of 439 people found the following review helpful By AntiochAndy "antiochandy" (Antioch, CA USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Audio CD) One of three LP/CDs by the Beatles among my all-time top ten, along with "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver". Though not my personal favorite, this recording is essential in any collection of pop/rock recordings. It has been, since its release, a standard by which others are measured. It also marks the high-water mark of the Beatles creativity as a band. After "Sgt. Pepper..." came a directionless time during which the "Magical Mystery Tour" and "Yellow Submarine" records were released, followed by the period the band's breakdown, as chronicled in the "White Album", "Let It Be" and "Abbey Road". Though these latter efforts contained plenty of great music, it was clear that the Beatles were increasingly unable to function together as a unit. Individual tracks almost always spotlighted one of the band members while the others worked essentially as a backing group.During a recent TV special, it wa said that,...

Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Audio CD) I feel like a monumental jackass reviewing this album: should I review the Q'uran and Coka Cola Classic next?

Is anything more impervious to criticism?I just feel like recording the joy [I am not exagerating] I'm feeling right now as my 11-year-old daughter is discovering this album. She is spurning Christina Aguilera and I don't know what other one-dimensional rot for the complex, multi-layered, polyphonic wonders of the peak album of the most musical foursome of all time. This feels like a great victory for me. Parenthood hath its rewards. Just had to type that out. 79 of 94 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Audio CD) [I originally wrote a seperate review, called "A magical world that has never better", posted August 23, 1998, on Amazon.com. Because it is marked as a private review it is not listed under my profile. As this is the original review, of which the second one from 2000 is modelled after (hence the 2.0 in the review title), I thought I would include it here.Mike London, October 18, 2007] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Review I. "A magical world that has never been bettered" August 23, 1998 This whole album is a masterpiece. Nothing has been done before or since that can equal this one. Of course its been said a zillion times, but its really true. I bought it in Christmas last year (1997), and as I listened to it, it got better and better. For me, The Beatles (at first) took some time getting used too. Then they got stronger and stronger. On this... Read more |
