Would "Sgt. Pepper's" be a better album if.....


....."Within You Without You" was dropped from the LP and Side 2 began with either "Penny Lane" or "Strawberry Fields"? If so, which of these would best kick off the second side?

At the risk of being a nattering nabob of negativity (the only thing RR said that I thought was funny), I find Elton John's cover of 'Lucy' more interesting as a listen.  And "With a Little Help..." was covered in the movie 'The Lathe of Heaven' so much better and in a fashion that the song only hints at....moving, instead of being a vague sex/drugs/r'n r reference....

BTW...the album exists as it is.  If you want to re-arrange it, have at it.  It's your playlist, after all....
ghosthouse and onhwy61, I stand corrected and thanks.  Memories of that error, I mean, era tend to blur a bit.   And those gentlemen would have made me want to find a way to erase as much of it as possible. ;)

I remember RR as guv of CA, where he practiced his lines for the 'next act'.  Spiro was 'funny', but it was always a 'groaner'.  And it would figure that Safire wrote 'NNoN'...he was an alliteration freak.  It'd show up occasionally....
