Magical Mystery Tour is an album that was not in the first place an album. Originally it was just an EP (extended play) which is half an album. In America it was extended to an LP (long play) by adding the singles that the Beatles had freed that year onto the end of the EP. In the UK it stayed an EP. In 1987, when the Beatles albums were freed onto CD, it was freed globally as the LP rather of the EP because the LP was more popular. The LP has now become an official portion of the Beatles catalogue rather than the introductory EP.

“Magical Mystery Tour” has a lot of great songs on it. McCartney has “The Fool on the Hill” which is a outstanding ballad and it is McCartney at his best. McCartney likewise has “Your Mother Should Know”, “Penny Lane”, and “Hello Goodbye”. George Harrison has “Blue Jay Way” which is a outstanding psychedelic piece. The bulk of the originative and artistic attainments belong to Lennon though.

In the history of rock “I Am the Walrus” stands out as being unique. The lyrics are strong sufficient to stand alone as poetry without the music. All of the Beatles were themselves fans of Bob Dylan. His influence may be heard in “I Am the Walrus”. Lennon likewise has “Strawberry Fields Forever” which is on a great deal of lists as the top rock song of all time. The Beach Boys Pets Sounds influenced the Beatles Sgt. Pepper, and “Strawberry Fields Forever” was the original song that the Beatles did for Sgt Pepper though it was freed as a single and not on the album. When Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys heard “Strawberry Fields Forever”, he believed that he couldn’t top it.

If the 60′s had an anthem it was “All You Need is Love”. This was performed in front of a live audience. The only divergence among this audience and usual audiences is this audience was the entire world. The program was called “Our World” and was shown internationally around the world. So this was played to the entire world. Not some bands may say they’ve done that in the 60′s.

Basically, “Magical Mystery Tour” is an extension of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”. This is because a lot of the songs were recorded for the duration of the Sgt Pepper recording sessions. “Strawberry Fields Forever” and “Penny Lane” were both recorded for the duration of these sessions, but when they were used as a double-A sided single, it was the Beatles policy not to use singles in their album. George Martin has explained that this is one of the Beatles biggest mistakes, and one of his biggest regrets. So even though “Magical Mystery Tour” doesn’t hold up to “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”, it is a outstanding album with a lot of great material that has lasted more than forty years. The remastered version sounds as if it were made this year.
