Getting it early and getting it late


I received Sgt Pepper as a gift from my older cousin in 1966. I was 11 and was blown away. I somehow missed the album Pet Sounds when it first appeared. I finally bought it and at the time wondered why my favorite band had put out an album of animal noises. I was very literal, I guess. And once again I was blown away. Both were monsters albums.
A combination of the two albums would have been fun to hear. Think of the Grey Album by Danger Mouse but with a very different twist.
