[QUOTE=Barry;1388264]LP or CD? Regardless of format, IMHO it's the best recording the Beatles didn't make![/QUOTE]
I do have all of their studio albums (apart from "Yellow Submarine", does that one count?), but this and "Revolver" are CD. I sometimes think I should get these last two on vinyl, but really these CDs are perfectly good. On the other hand I think Sgt Pepper to be one of the greatest albums ever made and really I should get it on vinyl. Which just leaves Revolver, and I can't let that be the odd one out, so...
I'm curious about that last statement - so who made it then?
Sgt Pepper and his Lonely Hearts Club Band of course. ;)
After their last tour in the US, where the screaming adulation of the audience drowned out what the Beatles were playing, they returned to England vowing never to perform live again. Thereafter they would only work in the studio which allowed them, with the help of George Martin, to manipulate sounds and acoustic effects which would not be able to be performed live. The whole album is supposed to be the result of the fictional Sgt. Pepper and his Lonely Hearts Club band.

Don't be put off by the rather 'twee cover (one of Neon Parks poorer efforts), it is IMO a rather good psychedelic rock album, largely dominated but not exclusively, by David LaFlamme's electric violin. The tracks are quite varied in their pace and style: from gentle and poetic vocal, through screeching rock, to atmospheric soundscape.
Probably best summed up by a posting on Discogs: Great dose of focused dreamy hippie vibed San Francisco quasi-psych-prog-jazz-rock with edgy male-female vocal harmonies supplemented by David Laflamme's excellent violin performances.
