Apparently, according to St Alexander of Pointless, when Sgt Pepper was issued it was closer to the end of WW1 than to today. That made me feel very very old.
I read a story about the Rolling Stones a few years ago - their first gig was closer to the sinking of the Titanic than to when I read it, and that would have been about 6 years back..
5 years earlier, you could have watched them scraping a living in Hamburg, boaty. 3 years later, it was all over.
When you grew up with them, they seemed such a constant in life. Weren't really around too long, all things considered.
