Deconstructing The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club BandDeconstructing The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

"In August, 1966, the Beatles layed their final concert (at San Francisco's Candlestick Park). They had decided to stop touring - and no one knew how to be a band without playing gigs. After that last show, George Harrison said, "Well, I guess I'm not a Beatle anymore." Of course, we now know they more than met the challenge, producing one of rock's greatest albums, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. In Deconstructing The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper, a multimedia lecture, "Beatleologist" Scott Freiman delves deeply into the creative process that produced this masterpiece. Deconstructing The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper brings you into EMI Studios to see how this landmark album evolved. The film traces the evoution of these now-familiar tracks, often starting with rough demos and developing through successive takes. Scott also sprinkles fascinating factoids throughout, answering questions you didn't know you had, like: Which track features background vocals in German? ; Why is one song in different keys for the British and American versions? ; Why didn't George Martin write the string arrangement for "She's Leaving Home"? ; Which tracks featured toilet paper, bass harmonica, and calliope? -- Join Scott on an educational journey into the remarkable creative process behind these timeless performances and recording sessions."--Container
