Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is a mind-blowing album experience. There are thirteen different songs on this album and thirteen different styles fused to a rock and roll frame.

The Beatles have yet again expanded the rock and roll boundary. This time, they pretty much pushed the boundary so far that anything possible is permissible.

Anyone who has listened to rock and roll has surely heard this album before. Therefore, opinions have already been formed. I have listened to this album since childhood and I have never grown tired of it. I still hear things on it that I have never heard. More than forty years later, it's remarkably modern and fresh. This album will have the ability to inform new musicians and bands well into the future.

Every song is near perfect. The two I cherish the most are Within You Without Out and A Day in the Life; they are simply two of the best rock and roll songs ever.
