Sgt. Pepper re-issue
-
Kestrel:
The problem is if they try and re-write history and include SFF & PL on the album, then they're going to have to knock off a couple of tracks that originally took their place !!! Lovely Rita & Good Morning Good Morning for the chop anyone?
Why? That isn't a given. There is space enough for everything.

That's true, especially on cd. But if the idea is to re-write history and put back the two songs that were originally left off, then their replacements should now be left off too. We will then be left with the Sgt Pepper album as originally intended.

Yes but no one knows what would have been left off to fit them - not even The Beatles. As they never got that far as prioritising a track list that included those 2. How can you know what "they replaced" when they were released as singles 4 months before the album was released. All that happened was in the middle of recording a bunch of songs, 2 got put out as singles instead.

Sgt. Pepper is an icon. They're not going to mess with the tracklist. My bet is any extras will come on a 2nd CD. To do otherwise would be like painting a moustache on the Mona Lisa.

That's true. But who knows which songs would have been left off? I doubt even the Beatles had thought it through at that time. They were just recording songs for a new album. They may have ended up with too many as they did for "The White Album." I doubt they just reached a point where they said...."We have enough; we can stop now." But, we'll never know. (I would never chop "Good Morning." It's a rocker and leads directly into the reprise and "A Day In The Life"...the rooster crow matched with the guitar lick were genius. I can't imagine one without the other.) If anything, I would say "When I'm Sixty Four," but then Paul had it recorded at the same time as the first two that were released as singles and left off the album. So.... Years ago, I personally ended side one with "Strawberry Fields Forever," and opened side two with "Penny Lane".... Now, I can't imagine the album any other way. That's been my album for years....

Sgt. Pepper's 6CD reissue? http://www.masslive.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2017/04/the_beatles_reportedly_readyin.html

No, you don't drop two songs to add "Strawberry Fields" and "Penny Lane." If the Beatles can release "Let it Be Naked" I don't see Sgt Pepper's (the greatest album of all time) as so sacrosanct that those two songs can't be added. The question is where? You don't just add them to the end of the album. "A Day in the Life" is the only proper way to go out. (Yes, I know about the gibberish in the inner groove). Announce the reissue already...oh, and shut up and take my money.

The video does mention "Strawberry Fields" and "Penny Lane"

But not included in the running order of the album, looks like. Probably just on one of the bonus discs. If they were part of the album, the ad copy would certainly have shouted about it. Just says new stereo mix.

I had forgotten that was recorded in January 1967. Yeah, why the heck couldn't they have included it?!
