Why not, today’s music sucks so much, a 50 year old album will probably sell like hotcakes.
The music of the 50’s - 70’s was the best. It will probably never be repeated.

50th Anniversary? Impossible. My mom bought that for me a week after it was on the shelves. No way that was 50 years ago!

Despite it’s influence, I personally think this album is overrated. Other than A Day In The Life and Good Morning, Good Morning, I dont care for the songs on it.
But thats just me.

Sgt Pepper's was great but Rubber Soul and Revolver were their best...by far.A 50th Anniversary of either one would find me first in line at Best Buy.Better still...why not release them in DVD-Audio and/or SACD????

The Who Sell Out was the best album that came out in 1967.

Some of the 80s British pop was actually pretty good.

“Within you Without you” is what kills it for me.

Some of the 80s British pop was actually pretty good.Could be, but I can name 100+ excellent bands from the 70's, and maybe a half dozen from the 80's.

I believe this was the Beatles last album before John Lennon got involved with Yoko Ono.
The Beatles were doing some good stuff then with Rubber Soul, Revolver and Sgt. Pepper.
Then Yoko broke up Lennon’s marriage, made him abandon his son, broke up the Beatles and turned Lennon into a drunk, whiny, leftist househusband.

Over 30 new, unreleased Beatles songs?!?!?

It may have been eye popping in it's day but there is never a day when I think "boy would I enjoy hearing 'Lovely Rita Meter Maid', 'When I'm 64', 'She's Leaving Home', or 'Mister Kite' right now!". Does anyone?
I can listen to Rubber Soul or Revolver or Abby Road from beginning to end over and over. Sgt Pepper, not so much.

I remember buying that when it was first released and giving it to a baby sitter for Christmas.
I was afraid that she wouldn’t like it———but she did.
