The album had an immediate cross-generational impact and was associated with numerous touchstones of the era's youth culture, such as fashion, drugs, <a href="/wiki/Mysticism" title="Mysticism">mysticism</a>, and a sense of optimism and empowerment. Critics lauded the album for its innovations in songwriting, production and graphic design, for bridging a cultural divide between popular music and <a href="/wiki/High_art" class="mw-redirect" title="High art">high art</a>, and for reflecting the interests of <a href="/wiki/Baby_boomers" title="Baby boomers">contemporary youth</a> and <a href="/wiki/Counterculture_of_the_1960s" title="Counterculture of the 1960s">the counterculture</a>. </p><p>At the end of August 1966, the Beatles had permanently retired from touring and pursued individual interests for the next three months. During a return flight to London in November, <a href="/wiki/Paul_McCartney" title="Paul McCartney">Paul McCartney</a> had an idea for a song involving an <a href="/wiki/Edwardian_era" title="Edwardian era">Edwardian</a> military band that formed the impetus of the <i>Sgt.

For this project, they continued the technological experimentation marked by their previous album, <i><a href="/wiki/Revolver_(Beatles_album)" title="Revolver (Beatles album)">Revolver</a></i> (1966), this time without an absolute deadline for completion. Sessions began on 24<span class="nowrap"> </span>November at <a href="/wiki/Abbey_Road_Studios" title="Abbey Road Studios">EMI Studios</a> with compositions inspired by the Beatles' youth, but after pressure from <a href="/wiki/EMI" title="EMI">EMI</a>, the songs "<a href="/wiki/Strawberry_Fields_Forever" title="Strawberry Fields Forever">Strawberry Fields Forever</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Penny_Lane" title="Penny Lane">Penny Lane</a>" were released as a <a href="/wiki/Double_A-side" class="mw-redirect" title="Double A-side">double A-side</a> single in February 1967 and left off the LP. The album was then loosely conceptualised as a performance by the fictional Sgt.
