Title: Don't Fall For It
Review: "Before Sgt. Pepper no one seriously thought of rock music as actual art. That all changed in 1967...". Says who? To hold this album out as "art" any more than other leading albums of 1967 is simply biased.First, this isn't rock music. Some of it is pop, and the rest, well, is ragtime, Indian, etc.Second, the real "art" was being released by Jimi Hendrix (Are You Experienced) and Cream (Disreali Gears) in 1967, which have certainly stood the test of time better than "When I'm 64".The song "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" is great. So is "A Day In the Life". You can get these on the Beatles greats hits compilations. And those are the only two songs you need out of Sgt. Pepper. Mathematically, 2 songs out of 13 is worth less than one star. Sorry.
Is the review positive or negative?
