In 1967, The Beatles released their 8th studio album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band, a record that has been considered one of the greatest albums of all time. Heavily influenced by The Beach Boys' record Pet Sounds a year earlier, Sgt. Pepper was renowned for its' innovative style of production, adept fusion of multiple styles of music, and has been credited with bridging the gap between contemporary pop/rock and high art. It has gone down as a highly influential album, and routinely reaches the top 10 of retrospective "Greatest Of All Time" lists by music magazines.Fast-forward to 1978; The Beatles had been broken up for a decade, and producer Robert Stigwood (Who had also produced Grease and Saturday Night Fever) decided that modern audiences needed to be re-introduced to the band. He went about this by teaming up with Peter Frampton and The Bee Gees to adapt an off-Broadway stage musical that utilized Beatles music for the silver screen. This film was titled Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, featured Frampton and the Bee Gees in starring roles, and cameos from the likes of George Burns, Alice Cooper, Steve Martin, and many more.And it was a complete and total clusterfuck.On this episode of Jukebox Zeroes, Lilz and Patrick (Joined by special guest Franco Micale) decide there's no way to fully understand the thoroughly awful insanity that is the 1978 soundtrack to the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band film without watching the film itself. Join them for a bewildered and befuddled recap filled with soft-rock covers of Beatles songs, insipid settings, and acting ranging from wooden to intensely hammy.#WeAreNormalNowLocal Music Feature: Forhill - "Luna"
