A new Beatles documentary titled Sgt. Pepper’s Musical Revolution is set to air on PBS starting on June 3. The doc is hosted by Roger Goodall and will share “material never before accessible outside of Abbey Road Studios, including recordings of studio chat between band members and isolated instrumental and vocal tracks.” “Whatever music you like to listen to, if it was written after 1 June 1967 then more likely than not it will have been influenced, one way or another, by Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” said Goodall. “The record’s sheer ambition in its conception, composition, arrangements and ground-breaking recording techniques sets it apart from others of the time. It’s a landmark in 20th century music, and I’ve hugely enjoyed exploring the story behind the music.” “This will be Sgt. Pepper as you’ve never heard it before,” added producer Martin R. Smith. “We’ve been granted unprecedented access to the Beatles’ own archive, photographs and multi-track studio tapes so we’ll be able to give an insider’s view into the making of this landmark album and, through Howard Goodall’s insight, just why it was so revolutionary.” Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com.
