For me, it's too close to call between the trio of "A Day In the Life",
"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" & "With a Little Help From My Friends". Probably not coincidentally, eleven years later in 1978, Capitol released "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band / With a Little Help From My Friends" together as the A-side of a single. The B-side was "A Day In the Life". For reasons I've never heard, no single was released from the album in 1967. Another of their legendary songs to come from that album was "Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds". |

Sgt. Pepper's is in my top five favorite albums. My favorite song is "A Day in the Life" too... So sad, so sad, with glimmers of sarcasm and the strange orchestral backing that Lennon told to play "slightly out of tune."

This album is a masterpiece. Certainly in my top five. Sad to say I haven't really thought about it or listened to it in years, but looking at the track list again gives me chills. I remember being around 12 years old and playing individual songs over and over again, driving my Dad crazy.
If I had to pick a single favorite, it'd be "A Day in the Life". I love the juxtaposition of the different Lennon/McCartney segments; like a collage of two entirely different brilliant paintings that should be a train wreck, but somehow they just mesh perfectly. Like PB&J I suppose. I'm listening to it now...ahhhh. It's easy to forget how everything we hear today would be so radically different if the Beatles never existed. Thanks prisoner. |

YAY!!! Another thread touting the " genius " of an album created by a bunch of drugged out pseudo musicians.
I just can't WAIT for the thread celebrating the White Album. |
