Episode 96- John Lennon in 1967 with Tony Green (Part 2 of 3)

Glass Onion: On John Lennon

In this episode we start to work our merry way through the Lennon/Beatles events events of this most swinging of Beatleyears, reaching mid-June.

The Fabs start off by releasing what could be their greatest single ever and then turn their full attention to creating what is surely at least their most famous album, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. We cover the recording, album cover, launch party, release and legacy of ‘Pepper’, as well as some of the other songs recorded around the same time and used for other singles and projects.

In amongst all this, John Lennon trips out in public at one of the premier British psychedelic events of the hippie era…

Enjoy!
