Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band :
Southall, Brian,
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band : the album, the Beatles and the world in 1967 / Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Brian Southall. - 192 pages : illustrations (some colour), portraits (some colour) ; 26 cm.
Originally published: Carlton Books, 2016. Includes index.
June 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of what many think is the greatest Beatles album. This book is a new way of telling the story of the album and is split into two distinct halves: the "A-side" is all about the Beatles, the music on the album, the recording process, how the disc was received at the time and how subsequently it has been acknowledged as one of the greatest albums ever recorded. The "B-side" looks at the state of the world in 1967, from the Summer of Love to anti-war protests, from the Six-day War to the death of Che Guevara, from the launch of Rolling Stone magazine to Jimi Hendrix's first UK tour as a solo artist -- and much more. Those who were there will reminisce fondly and those who weren't will discover what happened in the year a rock 'n' roll album changed the world... forever.
