Why is "Sgt. Pepper" so overhyped? Why is "Sgt. Pepper" so overhyped?
  • Sgt. Pepper

    I am 45 and I have often felt like I am one of the few people who dislike the later Beatles (post-Revolver) music and really like the early (pre-Revolver) music. I find St. Pepper to be plodding and overdone. I think that early Beatles music is joyous, fun, has great singability and is great to dance to. But it seemed as the 60's progressed and the more drugs they did, the duller the music became. So, I agree basically with Gina and David. I can see how the production was revolutionary at the time, but if the songs are no fun then production cannot save them. So it was good to read that someone else is on my wavelength. Thanks!
