Number one Beatle tune http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCUeia-nEio B) :) :) B)
One night riding in my friends brand new pony car Mustang 1967 fastback. He slips in a brand new 8track " Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. My perception of music changed again at that moment. I could hear the crowd noise in the opening seconds , a rather passive audience chatting non- descriptively amongst themselves, backed by a string section tuning. The audience gets right on the edge of their seats: the transition from second verse to first bridge features applause followed by inexplicably motivated laughter -I imagine someone making a goofy face. The final verse provides more applause, building through the intro into SCREAMING!! key of C Major a meter 4/4 beat..............The music world changes at that moment for me.

Since we are in the music mode
Just watched the Jimmy Buffet Concert for the Gulf...the other night...can't call me a ParrotHead but I was very impressed. I was unaware of how much of his music I was familiar with. I'll pay attention now. His concert was great.
Made me reminice

I don't often follow the URL's presented but I'm sure glad i did this one. Ciak thank you. My personal favorite is "In my Life" and running second is all of them. I was 13 when the Beatles hit the MARKET. I was living in NYC when they came to Shea Stadium and of course didn't attend the concert, parents thought they were junk & loud. I saw them on Ed Sullivan @ a friends.....we got a little distracted at moments because my friends dog was having puppies at the same time. MEMORIES
My room was covered with posters, George was my favorite at the time. John too old & serious looking. Paul, too cute and everybody loved him. Ringo I didn't give a thought. George just appealled to to me. Why? I think he was the unnoticed one at the time. Didn't he prove them wrong. I did see his Bagladesh Concert with Billy Preston & Leon Russell in NYC '74
Great song. I was too young to understand the spirit of Sgt. Peppers (and the 60's) But I remember them on Ed Sullivan in 1964 (My Dad & sister fought over that one). I remember when Paul did "Yesterday" on Sullivans show. Was that a Debut? And hearing Penny Lane & Hello Good Bye in '67 on the AM radio.
I used to go on the milk route w/ my dad and heard all of the great top 40 songs on WLS whilst reading while "helping" him. So when I get critical of radio, that is why. It was the golden age.
Just watched "Concert for George" the other day
