60s Week: Best Selling Album Of The 60s

You can find all of our favorite Sgt. Peppers songs on our 60s playlist



Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The top-selling album of the 1960s.

The Beatles were over the bubble gum pop phase and over the fame. So why not dress up in costumes and act like you're a different band?



This album kicks off with the title track explaining that this in fact a concept album. This entire act and album were both ideas. The idea to say "Hey we don't wanna be cute anymore. But clearly, we're not done making music together."

Although this may not be my favorite Beatles album, it went down in history as one of the best-selling albums of all time, by the best-selling band of all time.





Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band: "I love jammin' to this song and always go back to when I was twelve hearing it for the first time."








With A Little Help From My Friends: "This is one of the cutest songs by The Beatles and I just found out who Billy Shears was a few years ago."





Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds: "I didn't know what LSD was when I was twelve, but everyone told me that's what this song was about."



When I'm Sixty-Four: "I can't believe Paul McCartney is alive past this age."






Good Morning, Good Morning: "This is how I wake up everyday."






Sgt. Peppers (Reprise): "I always thought this was the end of the album."






A Day In The Life: "Rolling Stone calls this 'The Beatles Single Greatest Piece Of Work'".
