The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Sgt. Pepper is one of the best albums ever, and my favorite psychedelic album. Some of the songs have an orchestra playing, like "A Day in the Life" and "Good Morning Good Morning", making the album sound very different than any of The Beatles other albums. My favorite song is "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!". "A Day in the Life" is the most memorable song on the album. "Getting Better" is a fun song and is another one of my favorites. "Within You Without You", "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", "With a Little Help from My Friends", "Fixing a Hole", "She's Leaving Home", "When I'm Sixty-Four", "Lovely Rita", "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", and "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)" make up the rest of this classic album from 1967. I also like their A Hard Day's Night, Help!, Rubber Soul, Revolver, Magical Mystery Tour, The White Album, Abbey Road, Anthology 1, and 1 albums.
