SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND: THE ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUND TRACK

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is a double album produced by George Martin, featuring covers of songs by the Beatles. It was released as the soundtrack to the film Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, which starred the Bee Gees, Peter Frampton and Steve Martin. Beatles songs are used as dialogue to tell the story of a band doing battle with the music industry. The soundtrack contains new versions of the songs from the 1967 album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and the 1969 album Abbey Road. In the film, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is a small town's beloved marching band. After the bandleader's death, the band is re-formed by his grandson (played by Peter Frampton) and his best friends (played by the Bee Gees). Initially, the film received negative reviews, but it has since become a cult classic.
