In June we mark the 40th anniversary of the release of Sgt. Pepper and a warning is issued to everyone under 40.
For the very sheltered, I will simply state that this was an album (please check Wikipedia to discover what they were) by The Beatles, a singing group.
There will be laughing and smiling. There will be crying. There will be hugging. There will be much cleaning of dentures and singing. And there will be curious mass renderings of an "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" that sounds like too many cats that have had their tails trodden on simultaneously.
There will be chuckling by 64 year olds at a song called "When I'm 64".
And there will be much of what looks like conducting an invisible orchestra (in fact it will be air-piano playing) at the very end of the "record".
You may wish to arrange a stay in a Buddhist retreat in order to avoid this spectacle. Except the people running it will be sharing in the "celebration".
Follow Ups:
I was still in elementary school when Sgt Pep's came out and wasn't into music at all. A friend, who had older brothers, brought a bunch of us into the library and put this album on a record player. we put our headphones on and were instantly hooked! I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Every morning we'd get to school early and fire up the Sgt. Pepper's. This has got to be one of the greatest albums ever made.
As far as "no songs", DUI has no clue...............
Now in hi-rez surround, that is something new, as we her on Yellow Submarine and Love.
I didn't know that.
and if you remember THAT, you're either lying, confused or just plain weren't there...Much like the remainder of the 60's and into the early 70's...
(and personally, the early 80's... oops!)...

Are you still here?
Am I...

I thought "the listening bank" was one toke over the line.
