    • The Beatles had grown weary of public performance and there were rumours
    they may split up in 1966. They decided to concentrate on ‘studio’ work.
    • Sgt. Pepper pushed the boundary of what was possible at the time for recorded
    music – it was described as ‘a perfect storm of recording and musical creativity.

    THE ‘CONCEPT ALBUM’
    A concept album is, ‘a studio album
    where all musical or lyrical ideas
    contribute to a single overall theme or
    unified story. In contrast, typical studio
    albums consist of a number of
    unconnected songs (lyrically and
    otherwise) performed by the artist. It has
    been argued that concept albums should
    refer only to albums that bring in themes
    or story lines from outside of music, given
    that a collection of love songs or songs
    from within a certain genre are not
    usually considered to be a “concept
    album.”
