This Is A Joke, Right?
[Read the article: Why is "Sgt. Pepper" so overhyped?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Tell me it's a joke. A bit of provocation on the part of Salon to stir up a reaction from geezers like me? That's what this column must be. Otherwise it's pure nonsense, ill-informed and poorly considered. Even if Salon's critics don't enjoy the music, there's no denying that Sgt. Pepper was a cultural watershed, one that changed the lives of millions of us. To relegate it to being an "overhyped" and, by implication, irrelevant bit of pop flotsam is just plain wrong. This column reads like filler from the back pages of a college newspaper. It is certainly too shabby to warrant publication in a forum of Salon's stature.
