• Keith Richards Disagrees with World: 'Sgt. Pepper's' is "Mishmash of Rubbish"

    It's impossible to universally agree that any one album is the greatest in history, but the closest we've come is 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,' The Beatles' iconic release that has resonated with both its music and art. Numerous publications have named the band's 1967 album as the singular best record ever put to wax (many make the same argument for Revolver as well). One person familiar with the scene disagrees. Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards defied conventional expectations this week, describing 'Pepper's' as "rubbish."

Originally featured on the soundtrack for Phenomenon, which featured John Travolta, the track's tempo seamlessly fits the NYC songwriter's aesthetic despite its slightly sentimental lyricism.
