Not everyone believed Lennon when he swore that "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" was simply a song inspired by a childhood drawing by his son, Julian. Lucy-Sky-Diamonds: L-S-D, right? But "Sgt. Pepper" is hardly just "acid rock." The Beatles were too, clever to date themselves with bla-' tant psychedelia, preferring innuendo instead.

Pepper" was released, Brian Epstein, the Beatles' manager and stabilizing influence, died. With him went much of the spirit that had held the group together. Sgt. Pepper remains. SOFT DRI SOLID RINSE X-BODY 2-OZ.

They spared no expense to cap-; ture musically the image of an old carnival with complex dubbing and mixing of organ music on Lennon's song, "Mr. Kite." It took a 41 -piece orchestra to create the album's unforgettable finale, "A Day in the Life," a chilling, sad musical voyage inspired by some mundane newspaper items: "I read the news today, oh boy "It winds up with an orchestra crescendo that can only be described as a cacopho-; nous scale, finally concluding with a 40-second-long piano chord.
