Steve Shaw | BBC 4 Sergeant Pepper Analysis (50) | RE: BBC 4 Sergeant Pepper Analysis | 10 Jun 17 |
I loved it. Had it been a two-hour programme he maybe could have covered more of the songs. Lovely Rita may be my favourite but it didn't really get much of a mention. I bought the album on the day it came out before I went to school. I think I had an 'O' Level exam that morning. I wore out that copy within weeks (I had to weigh down the arm of my record player with three pennies sellotaped on top of it to stop it skipping) and had to buy another copy. Bad news as albums cost 32 shillings in those days. I had to work Friday night after school and all day Saturday at Victor Value to earn that much money. I know every note and every word of every track. How great to be sixteen and a Beatles fanatic when that album came out! |
