Two Views of Sergeant Pepper

Below, the Newsweek of January 1, 1968 compares Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to the comparably garish Their Satanic Majesties Request by the Rolling Stones.
Am I evil to admit that I've never heard the Stones' album?  Probably.
And the above is a typical mock-the-teenybopper cartoon from Look's May 14, 1968 issue.  You'll notice that they conveniently added a tagline under the cartoonist's name!

See you on Thursday, friends!  Hope your Halloween was safe and happy!
