09-10-14: Azaud1967 was an incredible year, seeing the release of "Jefferson Airplane's "Surrealistic Pillow," "The Doors," Hendrix's "Axis: Bold as Love," and Moody Blues' "Days of Future Past." But the biggest that year--or any year--was "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."
Sgt. Pepper was highly anticipated, and lived up to the hype, to say the least.
In the midst of that incredible burst of creativity, it's a shame that Brian Wilson couldn't bring "Smile" to completion or it would have rivaled those other landmark releases. Other notable releases that year included Cream's "Disraeli Gears," "The Who Sell Out," and the Stones' "Their Satanic Majesty's Request."
