I don't want to start any kind of CD vs. LP flame war, but I hope you hooked up your turntable. I have the CD of Pepper but I'll pass on that. I find the LPs to have so much more emotional connection and "in the room" sensation.

I've been thinking about listening to Sgt. Pepper all day! Even considering hooking up my turntable to listen to the vinyl copy I purchased sometime around 74 after wearing out the original lp I had in 68. Maybe I'll just listen to the cd while looking at the lp cover.
Plus, the Beatles are so great I think it's worthwhile to re-experience the physical involvement of playing an LP when it's the Beatles. The acts of cueing the stylus and flipping the record both help me relive the total experience.
