I am reading above and how can someone not like the Sgt. Pepper's album? That album is some insane shit...
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah - perhaps the finest cover under All Along The Watchtower
Many have already been said but..Oasis - Live Forever, Acquiesce & Whats The Story - listened to these tunes so many times in the past and still have the same effect as when i first heard themJeff Buckley - Hallelujah - perhaps the finest cover under All Along The WatchtowerThe Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows & A Day In The Life - both are way ahead of their timeRage Against The Machine - Know Your Enemy - a pissed off Rage at their finestThe Clash - (White Man) In Hammersmith Palais - shows their diversity beyond just another punk band Radiohead - hard to pick one song, so see The Bends or Kid AMuse - "x" off Origin Of Symmetry - their Wembley show highlighted to me they're one of the best live acts todayOthers..Jefferson Airplane - White RabbitDavid Bowie - Life On MarsPearl Jam - AliveJoy Division - Love Will Tear Us ApartBeck - Fuckin With My HeadThe Strokes - Last NightThe Doors - Soul KitchenThe Pixies - Where Is My MindArcade Fire - Wake UpSublime - What I GotThe Who - Won't Get Fooled AgainThe Jam - That's Entertainmentetc

That album is some insane shit... i didnt really like it... but i did love nearly everythin else they dun....***goes off and bumps Let It Be***Sgt Peppers is difficult to just jump right into. A lot of its greatness comes from its originality. It was a collection of sounds that were unheard by most rock listeners. It's like giving something like The Breaks to modetn hip hop fan. It just won't mean as much as it did when it was first heard in the music environment it was a heard. When rock and roll first came up in the late 40s and early 50s it sounded dangerous. Does it sound so dangerous now? When Link Wray released Rumble in the late 50s with a distorted guitar sound it was abbrasive and violent. Hearing it compared to metal it sounds tame. The other thing with Peppers is you have to already have an appreciation for psychadelia. Illmatic is a bunch of stupid noise to someone that doesn't like hip hop, and it's nothing special to most people that only listen to modern day south rap. It's a matter of taste and every taste can be aquired, it's just a matter of whether you want to aquire it. There are many sounds I've never aquired and many I probaby never will, but there are always people that like those sounds and like them for good reasons.And to whover said the Beatles were the N'Sync of the 60s; that's among the stupidest things I've ever heard. The Moknees maybe, but the Beatles turned music upside down and changed it forever. How albums are made, how sounds are discovered, how songs are crafted, how songwriters are respected as artists. The Beatles played major roles in chaning the world's view on all of that. Saying the Beatles were just the 60s N'Sync is like saying Rakim was just an 80s Lil' Bow Wow.
there are "out there" moments on the album, but to me there are songs that any rock fan can enjoy.... but you have some good points there...

Saying the Beatles were just the 60s N'Sync is like saying Rakim was just an 80s Lil' Bow Wow.word, preachonly thing I disagree with is sgt.pepper. I think it still sounds just as fresh and accessible. Songs like 'getting better', 'with a little help...' are still accessible as shit. The opening track and outro are fucking bangers. A day in the life is still gorgeous. Lovely rita's drums and piano bang to high heaven. Fixing a hole, mr.kite, and within without are kinda denser to get into but still very dope. Hell even LSD is a pretty accessible song.When I bought Curtis Mayfield's 'superfly' the essay in the liner notes said 'superfly' was the black sgt.pepper. I can see that, probably the best way to put it.yeah anyone who hasn't heard sgt.pepper....that's like not knowing Z from the alphabet you know? not just the record but the packaging and the cover art and all that, it's an amazing artistic achievement.-T
I just mean that Sgt. Peppers was damn near mind blowing when it came out. It just can't have the same effect on people now because people grow up already hearing the influences of Sgt. Peppers.
