4 stars This is an excellent and tremendously important album. Few other records have made such a great impact on the history of rock, or perhaps music in general, as this, and that is not without reason. On Sgt. Pepper's, The Beatles keep up the experimentation that they began on Revolver, incorporating more psychedelia, new technical effects such as the wah-wah pedal and voice manipulation and a variety of new instruments, including Hammond organs, strings, brass, and the sitar, and in doing so pretty much revolutionize the entire concept of pop music.

A great album, featuring classics such as the title track, "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds", "Fixing A Hole" (which, among heeps of other things, has been considered a sign of the alleged death of Paul McCartney) and "Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite".
