ASTRAM - Sgt. PEPPER'S

ASTRAM - Sgt. PEPPER'S - BEATLES The iconic cover of the Beatles' 1967 album is hailed by critics as their greatest work and one of the most influential albums in the history of popular music, ranking, among other things, at the top of the list of the “500 Greatest Albums of All Time.” Recorded over a span of 129 days, it is the first rock album to win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, and the cover itself received the Grammy in the visual arts category. The drum skin bearing the album title was painted by the sideshow artist Joe Ephgrave, who at the time did not realize he was creating one of the most emblematic works of pop art. In one corner, a Shirley Temple doll wearing a sweater bearing the words “Welcome The Rolling Stones” gave a discreet wink. Ultimately, the Beatles embraced their own mythology while poking fun at it. Perhaps that is why it remains as relevant as ever. The ASTRAM parody blends the 20 characters (excluding the Beatles) who appeared – or not? – on this cover and playfully hides certain details like a nod to that flourishing Flower Power era from one of the world's best rock groups.
