Fifty years . . . wow.
What is widely considered to be the greatest rock album of all time was released half a century ago today. That length of time is truly hard to fathom. This album is still as fresh and vital as the day it came out.
What else can I say about this album that hasn't already been said, or will be said on its golden anniversary today? Nothing . . . so why continue to elaborate, and/or belabor the point?
Thus, here you are - the six-disc version of The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, collected, compiled and remastered by the good people at Purple Chick back in 2007. Here's the complete track lineup, in case you're interested:
Enjoy, and as always, let me know what you think.

ReplyDeleteappreciate the link. this should keep me busy for hours!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the links! You are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love your "who gives a crap" comment - Purple Chick is now my go to. I was less than impressed by the Hollywood Bowl reworking (didn't need spoiling), and I don't know what he's thinking with the bass on this 50th.
ReplyDeleteExcellent stuff. Nice to have everything in one place; the Purple Chick collections are fantastic
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link, great post!

WOW. This is so great. I have heard much about 'Purple Chick' stuff. Thank you for being so generous with sharing these treasures. Beatles fan for life. Just.....thanks.
ReplyDeleteThank you for making this Purple Chick version of Sgt Pepper available. it will be refreshing to listen to something other than the official album. I very much appreciate your efforts and your kindness. Terry Peck
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting, I have never seen the Purple Chick version. Love material not available anywhere else
ReplyDeleteMJ
this is an awesome collection of sgt pepper, i had no idea there was so many outtakes, much thanks for sharing this one up with us all.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the amazing Purple Chick version. Looking forward to listening while everyone else goes Black Friday shopping!
ReplyDeleteThe deluxe reissue of Pepper's last year whet my appetite for more outtakes from this session, and after listening to a few of the tracks from this set earlier tonight, I think that this is just the thing I was looking for. Thanks for uploading this, you're blog is the only place on the net where I've been able to find full purple chick sets. P.S.: Do you have any plans to release the White Album Purple Chick edition later this year in celebration of its anniversary? I would love to listen to outtakes from that as well, as it's my favorite album from The Beatles.
ReplyDeleteThe White Album PC set? Well, it may already be present here on this blog - it may not...! Who can really say? (heh heh)
ReplyDeleteTake a look at my "Beatles Haiku" post for clues! Happy hunting!
This is a great set. Especially enjoyed Good Morning Take 8, and Ringo’s drumming at the end was fantastic. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you for providing this. Download perfect with no problems.
ReplyDeleteThe content - wonderful. Doesn't get much better than hearing the creation of great music.
Thank you.
Thanks for offering this fantastic collection. Also, thanks for providing images of all the artwork including the inserts in the rarer vinyl issues, as well as the track listing details which is extremely helpful in making sense of all the different takes, mixes and versions.
ReplyDeleteAdrian! Great to hear from you, buddy! Hope all has been well in your world! Wishing you all the best...
DeleteThanks for your quick answer, i love this album and i very appreciate your work!
ReplyDeletethank you
ReplyDeletegreat work
Thank You My Friend for the fast response, I really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much indeed for your response. In my view the Beatles never afterwards surpassed the creative heights they reached on this album and it is fascinating to listen to all these takes and outtakes etc. George Martin was never more involved than he was here either and he made a big difference to the final outcome. He was the Fifth Beatle. It is a pity Purple Chick don't use lossless files but this is much better than nothing. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for making this superb Purple Chick Sgt Pepper collection available and sharing them with us. I am really looking forward to the many hours of enjoyment they will bring.
ReplyDeletesuper fast response. thank you thank you thank you. I thought these were gone forever.
ReplyDeleteFrom Tony P. : “Thank you so much for the links and for the fast response! I truly appreciate it!”
