Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band


40 years ago, the Beatles released Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and, somehow, oddly, amazingly changed the Western world. A hyperbolic statement to be sure, but this would be the only album from a rock band to which such a sentiment could feasibly be applied. Or at least give you pause. This is a great article in this weekend's Slate about the album. Please enjoy.
