Episode 48: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (The Beatles). McCartney In Goal is the podcast that debates and dissects the great albums of rock music, using a competitive knock-out format. Today we’re discussing, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band which was the eighth studio album by The Beatles. It was released on 26 May 1967.

The McCartney In Goal team take an unruly amble through the album discussing:

  • why this album, once deemed the greatest of all time, might have lost its unassailable status?
  • is Sgt. Pepper's truly a concept album?
  • why did John Lennon dislike some of his own contributions to Sgt. Pepper's?
  • and, eventually, the best song from the album.

This is your chance to revisit your favourite songs, see them from a fresh perspective, and witness a lively battle for the top spot. Don't miss out on this exciting and enlightening debate!
