    I think "Revolver" is their real own "Sgt Pepper"'s album!

    V That's cool, I've been stoned the whole time listening to this. Seriously, I never heard this one sober. I bet if I did it would still sound great!

    John said they've been stoned the whole time making this. Certainly sounds that way. Great, I mean.

    Ugh, sorry. Don't mean to keep talking about this unprovoked. I just love the Beatles AND the Beach Boys, and I wish people would stop acting like one is better than the other.

    (Well, I agree Paul did rip Pet Sounds off a lot on some songs.) But nothing on Pet Sounds sounds even remotely like With You Without You, or the distorted horns on Good Morning Good Morning (which are ugly, but in a good way.) I could go on, but I've ranted enough about this. The Beatles had their own style, broke down genre barriers and popularized experimentation in music. They were a middle ground between the purity of the Beach Boys and the subversiveness of the Velvet Underground. They are certainly NOT just an inferior Beach Boys. :|

    But I'm tired of people acting like this is a BAD album because of the hype surrounding it, or dismissing it as a Pet Sounds rip-off with nothing unique to offer, because it's not.

    Just to clarify, I do think Pet Sounds is a lot better than Sgt. Pepper.

    A Day in the Life is no Surf's Up that's for sure. Obviously throwing petrol on the fire (even if it is what i think)

    I could be a dick and say Paul McCartney ripped it off the SMiLE ideas in which he had insight, especially that reprise and transition thing, because he is friends with Brian Wilson... but this argument is too speculative, even for me.

    Yes, but what makes this a true cohesive album is three things that neither Pet Sounds nor Rubber Soul does: The seamless song transitions, the title track reprise book-ending the album, and the epic closer of A Day in the Life. My whole point is that ranking the two is kind of dumb. They are both extremely important albums in Rock history.

    "Pepper is one of the first albums to really be a cohesive ALBUM" The first cohesive album was Rubber Soul and the first one produced with that attitude was Pet Sounds. "some inventive songwriting" the first song written in modular technique, which is also used in a day in the life, was Good Vibrations, Brian Wilson invented it. The "Inventive songwriting" even had a name before sgt. pepper's was released. But I agree with the first rock epic statement, if Good Vibrations doesn't count.
