Here is the hard question of the morning:
What is “Sergeant Pepper's lonely hearts club band” ?
Seems that if you know the answer to that – you’re old.
I was pretty appalled this morning because on the dopey radio station we listen to in the mornings – because of where we are, we can’t get any station but this dopey station – it turned out that one of the announcers had never heard of Sgt Pepper before. Ever. Didn’t recognise it when they played it.
So I did a survey this morning, of one person – a work colleague who I have coffee with most mornings and is a young wee thing of 28 – and she had no idea what I was talking about either.
How about that then. The most influential album of the 60’s and 70’s, and nobody under thirty knows a thing about it. Oh, the youth of today. And that makes me feel very, very old. Especially since the album is 43 years old now. Ancient history…
