In the history of rock, there are seminal records... and then there are the true cream of the crop. The Beatles' 1967 classic Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is very much in the latter camp, a record so mind-bending and fresh that, 55 years later, it remains one of the most-revered albums ever recorded. And when we say recorded, we mean it in the old-fashion way: Using tape reels and decks without a semblance of computer assistance, which wouldn't have even been possible ast the time. From musicianship to lyrical work to production, Sgt. Pepper's may be unrivaled even in the Beatles' very own discography of genre titans. So let's delve in, go through some of these amazing songs, and discuss the neverending legacy of what some would argue is the strongest LP ever set to vinyl, one that shook the world it entered into, and continues to morph it to this day.

Colin for sure we were at the same show I was at that el cielo, show and Leitmotif show and, the one at the Filmore. There is a DVD that Dredg put out from the catch without arms tour I think Fuse TV Played it on TV as well am in that video. I think during the interludes for the fade in and out. Dredg is a kick ass band. Sorry you don't hear about people that really like them.

Ive tried to get into Beatles many times over the years, ive always thought they were a bit over-rated (which I stand by), but having giving this album a good listen after this podcast I really loved it. Though delving into their back catalogue a bit, that Sitar was featured in Revolver the year prior, and I was blown away by how ahead of its time Tomorrow Never Knows was off that album, I had to check it wasnt a re-mix from 50 years later that I was listening to.

Hey guys! Just a quick correction: Ronnie Wood is still alive. The person I think you're referring to is Charlie Watts. I dunno - I don't listen to the Stones, but great work on The Beatles podcast, truly. If you guys can find the time and are interested, I'd really like to see a Slowdive podcast, or Cocteau Twins, or some other shoegaze band from the 80's/90's. Cheers fellas

Not even a Beetles fan although I know their music is classic. But this was a fun episode to listen to.

Maybe Colin knows this, but hearing him mention watching 100 years old films and such, reminded me of the various film vault fires throughout the years that had burned thousands of old nitrate reel to reel films, and were the only copies of said films. One, I think in the 30s in Jersey at Fox before they were filming on the west coast. Another one in 1965 or so in LA, and one as recent as 2008 or something like that. In some cases, they don't even know what films were even in there because those logs were destroyed as well.

Ohhh… this brought me right back! It even made me all teary. There will never be another band that comes close to being as impactful as the Beatles. And I’m so glad that they touched your lives in such a positive way. Thank you for doing this. I love you both so very much. ❤️❤️
