SGT. PEPPERS LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND

Review of 1982 Japanese reissue of the Beatles Sgt.Pepper in mono

Sgt. Pepper is perhaps one of the most listened to rock LPs ever, but for decades it has seldom been heard in its original MONO mix. The version that George Martin, Geoff Emerick and the Beatles themselves pored over and the one they claim is the ultimate version has been sent to a virtual oblivion by the stereo mix. The advent of the stereo only CD has nearly sealed the mono mix's fate as a fossil (save for numerous "import" CDs sourced from needle-drops).

If you've never heard this mix, and especially if you're a big fan of this music, some subtle and some dramatic differences will jump out as you listen to this LP. Vocals are treated to additional effects such as flanging and phasing adding to the ethereal and trippy nature of songs like Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds. She's Leaving Home sounds like it's in a much-higher register, the tape being played back at a considerably faster speed than the familiar stereo version. And more aggresive mixes with only slightly different balances make tunes like Good Morning Good Morning rock a little harder and shed just a little bit of their music-hall stylings and coy cleverness.

Augmenting what is, for many listeners, a novel presentation of familiar music, the red vinyl the Japanese pressed this reissue on is very quiet.

If you know anything about these records, you will know how rare they are to find on the open market and how high they sold for in the past

This is your chance to buy one at a reasonable start price, Sgt. Peppers & the White Album are said to be rated the Best Quality of this series

(Before bidding Research this LP and Japan 1982 Mono Red Vinyl Series, see its rareity and what the excitement is all about)
