I watched it with my mum back in 87, and then the era of the Beatles seemed mysteriously remote and 20 years a gulf unspannable. Now I've found it again, some 37 years later, with my eldest daughter almost the age I was then. Can't wait to see what she makes of it. Thank you so much for posting this!
This captivated me so much I couldn't stop watching for a year. I looked at it all the time. Thank you for enriching one human. Because of this I ran the most sophisticated jazz festival in Oregon for 18 years. I had a blast because of this documentary.
In 1967, I was 15 and an absolute music fanatic, and for ten years, I truly believed that the music would change the world for the better. When I saw this, I realised what a forlorn hope this had been. I shed a tear as I watched this and the realisation hit home! But the real winner is the greatest music that we have been left with, and the realisation of what magical times we had the greatest of fortune to live through. I'm 72 now, and I wouldn't change one thing!
OMG I've been hoping someone would post this. I still have it on VHS, recorded from TV, but obvs not easy to watch now. Watched this so many times. Incredibly unique documentary about '67 ❤🎉
I watched this when it was first broadcast. I recorded it on a VHS machine. The tape deteriorated long ago. This is an excellent documentary of 1967, specifically the Summer of Love, of which Sgt. Pepper was the soundtrack.
The best ever doc about the scene in 1967. I learned all about the Diggers and the Dutch provos from this when it was originally broadcast. It’s had a lasting influence for me.
I was 8 days away from my 12th birthday on June 1, 1987 when I bought my first Beatles CD...SGT Pepper, which had been released that day. At 48 now, I have more domestic, imported, bootleg, etc Beatles CD's than I can count.
I watched this in 1987, haven't seen it since. my high school history teacher lent me a VHS copy to watch at home. Ill be bookmarking this to watch later.
This video just made me weep with joy and sometimes sorrow because I remember that at that times the world and everyone in it whether they believe it or not were in a state of Flux. It wasn't just The Beatles. Everything was changing. People were changing and introducing change and showing that the change could be for the better. Note: Ehe expression on the face of Micky Dolenz after the performance of Ravi Shankar was one of pure bliss.
I remember watching this in 1987, the Reagan/Thatcher years, with envy as a teen. I was saddened that it appeared that the positive social change and cultural freedom that existed for a brief time would never occur again. That is the premise/backdrop under which this documentary was made. Hindsight, it may be equally significant to consider the difference from 1987 and today. Our current western society is reflective of one that has incorporated many of the freedoms and values learnt from 1967 that did not exist in 1987. Much more so. Amazing really. Think on.
I recall watching this on PBS in 1987. What I remember best was the final piano chord of A Day In The Life in the closing credits and wishing they'd include the inner groove...which they did! Yay!
I'm not sure if this is the one I saw in 1987 but it was a profound experience to see such meditation on a rock and roll album and it's collateral influence on the counter culture of the time.
I saw an interview with Eric Burdon where he was talking about being in a hotel in San Francisco with some other musicians of the time, and Jimi Hendrix was there. He said he was looking out the window and saw the police dragging some Vietnam protestors off, and ask Jimi, "What do you think about that, Jimi?" He said Jimi replied, "Well.., if they were to see the red Chinese rolling into South Vietnam they'd understand why troops were being sent over there."

Yo creo que hubiese sido perfecto si hubiesen eliminado los dos primeros temas de la cara B, y se hubieran añadido Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane y Only a Northern Song, dando un total de 14 temas. El original baja mucho en la cara B hasta que llega el apoteósico A Day in the Life.
That would've been amazing. I'd save Good Morning, Good Morning, Sgt Pepper reprise and of course A Day in the Life. But I'm cool with the way it turned out. We still have those incredible songs on other albums. I love Strawberry Fields Forever! 👍
It was a fine album, but less important than Revolver. It was the beginning of the end for the remaining 3 beatles. No more important than Buffalo Springfield Again, or Spirit's The 12Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus. R.I.P. J.P. McCartney .

It’s a pity this isn’t the full doco. Some parts lose a bit of context like levitating the Pentagon. It was originally more a metaphorical imaginative Idea from the east coast but on the west coast they were ‘thinking of ways of making it happen’ 😀.
Let me be the unpopular opinion, there were better albums in 1967. “Are You Experienced” - The Jimi Hendrix Experience, “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn” - Pink Floyd, “Their Satanic Majesties Request” - The Rolling Stones i thought was better than Sgt Pepper…. Definitely more realistic
If we are just talking about the songs we could have the conversation you suggest. However, none of the albums you suggest break new ground in terms of affecting society, affecting how music and records are made. Pink Floyd was recording Piper right next to the Beatles at Abbey Rd and Roger Waters is on record saying Sgt Pepper deeply affected how Pink Floyd made music
Nothing comes close to the quantum leap into cosmic inner space As A Day in the Life with John’s moan before the flip back into the final verse, and the harmonic closing note banged on the piano fading into oblivion. - It has everything. Has anyone written a book about that track?
I'm not sure about the "Baby Boomers" being at the center of this. Timothy Leary said it was 1946-1964 I think. Well I was born in 1957, so I was only 10 years old in 1967. I was too young for that whole happening. All the people in this film were older then me. So it doesn't quite make sense (?) I certainly dug it all when I was 13 in 1970!
Lol. According to Geoff Emerick. The Beatles were world superstar recording artist before Geoff ever worked with them. But, George Martin hired brilliant people. Geoff being one of them.
God.... I never knew that I would see this again in my life. Beautiful 😍
Enjoy it while it stays up on TH-cam!!
I've been looking every few years. I'm not sure if this is the one with a guy who goes camping suddenly realizes is bacon is strips of dead pig😂
I watched it with my mum back in 87, and then the era of the Beatles seemed mysteriously remote and 20 years a gulf unspannable.

I was 8 days away from my 12th birthday on June 1, 1987 when I bought my first Beatles CD...SGT Pepper, which had been released that day. At 48 now, I have more domestic, imported, bootleg, etc Beatles CD's than I can count.

This is a great documentary about the most important Rock album of all time. The Beatles Masterpiece!

I bought Sgt Pepper on cassette when this doc came out. I was 15. My first Beatles album!
Goodness, I haven't seen this since it first aired!! Thank you for posting!!!
Watched it when it was on, and video taped it. Tapes long gone. I'm going to savour this...
One of the most Magnificent music documents ever made ! ! ☺️🥰🙏💞
i remenber watching this on tv back in the day its time it had a dvd release great documentry on the sgt pepper album and the year 1967
I recall watching this on PBS in 1987. What I remember best was the final piano chord of A Day In The Life in the closing credits and wishing they'd include the inner groove...which they did! Yay!
I saw this, bought The Compleat Beatles on VHS and started buying the new Beatles CDs in 1987!
I videotaped this from The Discovery Channel in 1990. What a treasure.
I'm not sure if this is the one I saw in 1987 but it was a profound experience to see such meditation on a rock and roll album and it's collateral influence on the counter culture of the time.
Best summer ever! Great music, vibes, great weather.

It is a shame that these present times have very little music of quality to represent them.
this was a great doc
Great upload but where is the fabulous intro where the cover comes to life?
Some part cut off, original version after Paul talks about adding the jangling sound 15:38 they show the Beatles playing If I Needed Someone
Yeah, it looks like around 20 minutes has been edited out according to the running time (approximately 105 minutes) shown on Wikipedia.
The most mind-blowing thing in this might still be the pretty straight Otis & the MGs at Monterey.
Sgt. Pepper's = The most important LP ever released

Ask an 18 year old today if Pepper is the most important.

Is that record store still around?
They cut out the stop motion that's a shame.
Mr Jones was in reality Brian Jones of the rolling stones and so is tale of a thin man
Yeah, I agree with Derek. Don’t take acid on Reading Station with a load of soldiers.
It’s a pity this isn’t the full doco. Some parts lose a bit of context like levitating the Pentagon. It was originally more a metaphorical imaginative Idea from the east coast but on the west coast they were ‘thinking of ways of making it happen’ 😀.
Let me be the unpopular opinion, there were better albums in 1967. “Are You Experienced” - The Jimi Hendrix Experience, “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn” - Pink Floyd, “Their Satanic Majesties Request” - The Rolling Stones i thought was better than Sgt Pepper…. Definitely more realistic
These are all classics but just sonically one dimensional compared to Pepper's imo.
If we are just talking about the songs we could have the conversation you suggest. However, none of the albums you suggest break new ground in terms of affecting society, affecting how music and records are made. Pink Floyd was recording Piper right next to the Beatles at Abbey Rd and Roger Waters is on record saying Sgt Pepper deeply affected how Pink Floyd made music
Nothing comes close to the quantum leap into cosmic inner space As A Day in the Life with John’s moan before the flip back into the final verse, and the harmonic closing note banged on the piano fading into oblivion. - It has everything. Has anyone written a book about that track?
I'm not sure about the "Baby Boomers" being at the center of this. Timothy Leary said it was 1946-1964 I think. Well I was born in 1957, so I was only 10 years old in 1967.
