Sgt Pepper

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the legendary album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, British musician, composer and arranger Ed Harcourt has called on the cream of British rock. Accompanied by eight musicians, Pete Doherty and Carl Barât (The Libertines), as well as Gaz Coombes and Danny Goffey (Supergrass) take the stage for a revolutionary tribute. Never performed on stage by its creators, the Beatles' musical masterpiece and its gallery of characters come to life during an exceptional concert, recorded on 22 October 2017 at the Philharmonie de Paris.

A small town band makes it big, but loses track of their roots, as they get caught up into the big-time machinations of the music biz. Now, they must thwart a plot to destroy their home town. Built around the music of The Beatles, this musical uses some big name groups like Peter Frampton and Aerosmith.

50 years ago this week, on 1 June, 1967, an album was released that changed music history - The Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. In this film, composer Howard Goodall explores just why this album is still seen as so innovative, so revolutionary and so influential. With the help of outtakes and studio conversations between the band, never heard before outside of Abbey Road, Howard gets under the bonnet of Sgt Pepper. He takes the music apart and reassembles it, to show us how it works - and makes surprising connections with the music of the last 1,000 years to do so.

This was an official documentary shown on television featuring George Martin taking us through the album tracks and Paul, George and Ringo giving us their memories of the sessions. The Making Of Sgt. Pepper was transmitted in the UK on ITV on 14th June 1992 and featured separate interviews with Paul (filmed on 9th April 1992), George (12th April) and Ringo (19th April). The show also features George Martin playing some unreleased Sgt. Pepper's recordings directly off the original studio 4-track master tapes.

Featuring interviews with former employees, fellow musicians, family members and journalists, and supported by original and exclusive never-seen-before footage, this star-studded rockumentary offers a fascinating insight into the creation and recording of one of the most ground-breaking and influential albums in pop history.

The group salutes the 40th anniversary of the seminal Beatles album with a dynamic track-by-track rendition that features the New York Philharmonic, an Indian music ensemble, and an array of special guests. At the helm is Geoff Emerick who engineered the Fab Four's definitive album in 1967. Cheap Trick infuse their brand of Beatlesque power pop into a live tribute that pays homage to their musical influences. Never before performed live in its entirety by the Beatles, this footage is an exclusive opportunity to hear the complete album performed live. Extras include interviews with Cheap Trick - all never before seen. This musical release features the rock band Cheap Trick performing The Beatles' classic album SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND.

Written in 1967, Sgt. Pepper’s was the world’s first concept album. The Beatles went into the studio, enthusiastically embracing the possibilities for experimentation that were blossoming at the time, and with no intention of playing the album live. Firstly, because they just didn’t feel like it (due to the hordes of screeching fans), but also because it was music that supposedly couldn’t be performed on stage, as it was too complicated. But that music just had to be played live at some point! Now The Analogues’ perform this masterwork live in all its analogue glory—an honor for which no effort has been spared with regards to a truckload of wild and wonderful vintage instruments. There’s a sitar and tabla drums for ‘Within You, Without You’, a rare Lowrey keyboard for ‘Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds’; a harp for ‘She’s Leaving Home’, plus, of course, a huge array of strings and horns. This is The Analogue’s quest to faithfully perform Sgt. Pepper’s live!

Studio engineer Geoff Emerick challenges modern musicians to recreate songs from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles, to celebrate the album's 40th anniversary.

Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is one of the foundational albums of rock & roll music. Its release in 1967 ushered in a new era of musical experimentation and performance that resonated perfectly with the tumultuous and vibrant social changes of the time. It lands near the top of every list of the greatest or most important albums of all time. But even if you’re a fan, how much do you actually know about its creation? Musician, composer, software company CEO and Beatles expert (he taught a class about the Beatles at Yale!) Scott Freiman leads the viewer through an educational journey into the creative process of the Beatles’ performances and recording sessions, their studio innovations and the history behind their music. Lifetime listeners will come away with a fresh realization of the singular genius of the four lads from Liverpool, and even new fans might find a novel way to engage with a fulfilling but extremely complex set of songs.
