The music of 1967

Now playing in 1967

• The Beatles released Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band

  Released on 1 June 1967, it changed what a pop album could be.

• Procol Harum released "A Whiter Shade of Pale"

  The organ-driven single became the sound of the summer of 1967.

• Engelbert beat the Beatles

  "Release Me" kept The Beatles’ "Strawberry Fields Forever" off the top of the charts.

• "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)"

  Scott McKenzie’s anthem became the calling card of the Summer of Love.
