Released in 1967 this is The Beatles eighth studio album. It is possibly the most overrated record ever made. Not as good as Magical Mystery Tour released later the same year and not as important (or as good) as Revolver released a year earlier.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is a very good record none the less, maybe even great, but it aint Mozart.

Usually name checked by people who know little about music and even less about The Beatles.
John:"Let's go back to the flat and listen to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."

Paul: "Let's go back to the flat but let's listen to Revolver"

Get the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band mug.
1) When you think something is "the greatest of all time" because you have heard it said by others for so long that you begin to believe it yourself.

2) Conforming with a majority of people's opinion about something being the "greatest of all time" when you might not fully understand why.
A day in the life of someone with this condition...

Person #1: DUDE! Snickers is the greatest candy bar of all time.

Person #2: That's strange. I could have swore the other day you said Kit Kat was the greatest candy bar. What made you change your mind?

Person #1: Well, I read a Rolling Stone article listing the 500 greatest candy bars of all time. They placed Snickers as number one. OMG SNICKERS IS THE BEST BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS. NOW I THINK IT'S THE BEST TOO

Person #2: Oh God, you're suffering a bad case of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
