3 stars I have to agree with some fellow reviewers in so far as they are bemused as to why this album receives cult status. I too feel it is not worthy of more than 3 stars because in the main the musical content does not reach the same breathtaking heights of ' Double White', ' Revolver' 'Rubber Soul' or even ' Let it Be'. there are some real pearlers like ' Lucy In The Sky with Diamonds(LSD)', ' When I'm 64' and ' Lovely Rita'. What makes this album popular with a huge fanbase is the fact that it does hold true to being a concept album. Overall a very good album but nothing more. Influential very definitely.
