“It was the summer to end all summers.  London was swinging and Love and Peace were going to change the world.  On 1 June 1967 came summer’s main event: a long awaited album from the Beatles.  Six months in the making, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band revolutionised the world of pop music.
IN Summer of Love George Martin takes us down to the magical fantasy land that is Pepper, and inside the inspired creative process of his work with the Beatles.  Song by song, track by track, ‘Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds’, ‘She’s Leaving Home’, ‘A Day in the Life’, ‘Within You, Without You’, the album comes alive.”
