Why does /mu/ hate this album again?

it's a pop masterpiece desu

McCartney's
>SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
is amazing on this track. The whole thing is like an Eleanor Rigby for church. Great stuff.
>>
She's Leaving Home is the best track on Sgt. Pepper's.
>>
>>64154246
Because it's dated as fuck. It has a couple masterpieces, but a few duds as well. She's Leaving Home is a mawkish, failed attempt at McCartney trying to be Brian Wilson. The whole album basically sounds like The Beatles trying to be trippy and overly ambitious and cram everything into one album, but comes across as gimmicky and amateur compared to some other pop albums of the time.
>>
>>64154455
If it's mawkish like you say then I'd say it's a successful attempt to be Brian Wilson, Sgt. Schmaltz.

>>
>>64154598
The difference is that She's Leaving Home is dishonest and heavy-handed while Brian's music comes from the heart and is pleasant to listen to. I mean, the chorus is alright but the verses just drag on and on. It really wouldn't be so bad with a more traditional rock arrangement, but McCartney's abuse of muh strings and the slow tempo just ruin it

A slightly better Pet Sounds that didn't bring the innovations Pet Sounds brought, nothing great desu
Rubber Soul and Revolver are way better

GMGM is tied with Lovely Rita for worst. Seeing him play Lovely Rita live made me realize how underwritten and average it is
>>
>>64155086
this >>64155120
and Fixing a Hole are probably the worst. I also don't particularly care for the Sgt. Pepper Reprise. Within You Without You is probably after those in terms of least favorites

Although I agree it's certainly not a lyrical masterpiece, those vocal harmonies man... they get to me
>>
>>64155120
>underwritten
What does this even mean? It has verses, bridges, a solo and an outro just like a lot of their songs. And just in my opinion it's one of McCartney's finest melodies

The worst song is CLEARly Getting Better. It's essentially a novelty song and it's just one dumb riff for most of the song

>>64155148
Fixing a Hole is kind of dumb but it has impressive production and good lyrics
>>
>>64155187
>Getting Better
FUCK no, it's in the top 5
>>
>>64155148
I think the Reprise is way better than the opener. The riff is scorching.

George Martin didn't make the arrangement for Shes Leaving Home, mate.

>The day before McCartney wanted to work on the song's score, he learned that George Martin, who usually handled the Beatles' string arrangements, was not available. He contacted Mike Leander, who did it in Martin's place. It was the first time a Beatles song was not arranged by Martin. Martin was hurt by McCartney's actions, but he produced the song and conducted the string section.

have you never listened to it? every song is emotional.

>>64154269
That song was the single moment when The Beatles went next-level.

It's the pivot point of the entire album, and it's the song that prepared the listeners for god-tier art pop of A Day In The Life.

Fixing A Hole had decent lyrics, and the production was great. The repeat also kicked ass.

>>64155352
It's a tie between With A Little Help From My Friends or She's Leaving Home, would be my pick for #2.

But I also think that Magical Mystery Tour is the better album.

basically, Sgt. Pepper's has the better opener and a far, far better closer, but it really only has a couple good tracks in the middle (Getting Better, Fixing A Hole, and She's Leaving Home)

Meanwhile, Magical Mystery Tour has an equally good opener, and the songs in the middle are utterly god-tier Beatles (The Fool On The Hill, Hello, Goodbye, Strawberry Fields Forever, Penny Lane), and even the normie memed-to-death closer is a better wannabe vaudeville song than anything on Sgt. Peppers.

This album is literally Rubber Soul and Revolver with better production. Why do you say its worse than those albums?

yeah the list does go on because the impact the beatles had was medium-transcending, they did something new on such a large scale that everyone was affected by it, picking a handful of artists that were inspired by them that you personally don't like is just retarded

Amazing album. Good Morning Good Morning is obviously the worst track, but it's not even bad. I know every note on this album by memory, that's how much I love it.

>>64160229
He collaborated with others on lyrics because he knew he wasn't the best at them and had enough of a load to carry anyway. The lyrics are still obviously based on his feelings and inner state of mind.

Why bring up MUH LYRICS when talking about Brian's songwriting, anyway? He communicates through music. No one is as good at crafting emotionally resonant melodies as him. The lyrics could be about literally fucking anything and his music would still be touching and heartfelt.

IMHO it's really dated when you compare it to Revolver - it feels really odd how popular Sgt. Pepper's was at the time, Revolver, The Beatles and Abbey Road are easily better albums

But then, having the ability to do all that crazy shit in the studio was new, so it was really influential for proving musicians around the world that you can expand the boundaries of your artistic vision and musical ability by taking advance of new studio technology and that step forward had a massive effect on rock/pop music so Sgt. Pepper's deserves a lot of credit for making that obvious and inspiring musicians to take their music forward with technology far more than more modest users of studio capabilities like Beach Boys or trailblazers with smaller audiences like Frank Zappa did.
>>
>>64155144
it's these and Fixing a Hole ain't good either

Both Lovely Rita and GMGM feel like they could be good parts of a Abbey Road like medley if they were about 90 seconds long and flowed well to neighboring tracks

In retrospect, a lot of Sgt. Pepper's seems like a rehearsal for the B-side of Abbey Road where the idea of connecting separate tracks comes together almost magically and really makes every little bit better in this context. If Abbey Road never happened, I guess Sgt. Pepper's might seem better as an album, but now the transitions from one track to the next just feel like a rehearsal.

On that note, Good Morning, Good Morning is actually somewhat saved by the barnyard transition to the title track reprise - it's a great underrated moment imho, flows quite nicely
