Even without all the experiments, the tapes being thrown in the air, orchestral climaxes and use of Indian musicians, this is (largely) a set of extraordinary songs. The first thing to say is that, despite all the revisions over the years, it’s still a brilliant album. Pepper is as deluxe as most of its original fans will ever experience it. Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields Forever are along for the ride this time, but yet again fans are denied Carnival Of Light, the epic instrumental that may be as unlistenable as it is unavailable. This time round it’s available in anything from one to six discs, with remixes, out-takes and extra tracks. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is now 50, and once more walks among us, demanding appreciation and love.
