While I could say that most Beatles albums are my favorite, this is the one that I know almost all the words to.

The Beatles?
Isn't that the band that Paul McCartney was in before the Wings? ______________________ Seriously though, Sgt. Pepper is one of those records that I need to listen to in its entirety. I cannot just pull a track or two out - it just doesn't work for me. Being able to listen to it with a good pair of headphones (alas, my Sennheiser's finally died after 20+ years of abuse) while lying down comfortably with your eyes close - that is the perfect way to experience this album! |
Yeah, incessantly in high school. I adore it and could listen to it most any time. Each song is a gem on its own as well. However, I think my favorite Beatles album is still Rubber Soul, but that's by a very small margin.

Revolver, Rubber Soul, Abbey Road and then Sgt. Peppers (imho), but I acknowledge the supreme greatness and genius of Sgt. Peppers.

One of my earliest memories is looking through my dad's records. It was probably was around 1968. The two albums that stood out were Janis Joplins Cheap Thrills (because of the cartoon cover) and, of course, Sgt. Pepper. A short time later my folks to me to see the movie Yellow Submarine and I fell in love with Beatles music. I can still remember my father coming home from a business trip and handing me the Corgi Yellow Submarine toy. He told me whilst on the plane he saw it flying outside the window, and he reached out and grabbed it. A silly story, perhaps, but it made the toy (and the Beatles) that much more special.

While "A Day in the Life" is one of my favorite Beatles songs, I'm sure you can guess what my favorite album is. I know this makes me odd.
|
That was the first album to ever include the lyrics.
|
I didn't know about the original album until after seeing the wonderful piece of cinema that the Robert Stigwood Organisation dumped on us...
but the first Beatles album I owned was "Sgt. Peppers" and I still have at least a couple tracks on my mp3 player at all times. |

Best album cover to play "Where's Waldo with major historical and pop cultural figures" ever. And the vinyl record came with cool cut-out toys.
And Paul was OPD, according to his patch on the interior gatefold. Countless hours of fun. |
