Story & Background
The world-famous cover of *Sgt. Pepper*, by Peter Blake and Jann Haworth, is a masterpiece in its own right, which cost the exorbitant sum of approximately 3,000 pounds at the time. The wall of characters chosen by the Beatles themselves to populate their virtual "audience" generated debates and self-censorship. Initially, John Lennon proposed controversial figures such as Jesus and Hitler, who were promptly excluded to avoid scandals, given their potentially divisive nature. Gandhi was also removed at the suggestion of EMI, fearful of offending the Indian government. This meticulous selection and the subsequent revisions highlight the almost obsessive care and attention to detail that surrounded every aspect of this epoch-making record, making it not only a musical work but also a multidimensional cultural icon from its genesis.
