I like every tune on the album except “She’s Leaving Home,” which really sucks.

How Neanderthal of you...don’t you realize “She’s Leaving Home” was a searing indictment of postwar bourgeois materialism, soon to be succeeded by the Age of Aquarius and a soulful socialism for all? /s.

I was 18 in 1967. The `Sixties’ that followed could not possibly suck enough. Bought Sgt Pepper, later threw it away. My “f*** off” to that era was a year spent in Vietnam which I volunteered for.

As the father of a daughter who is about to leave for college, I listened to that song a few months ago, and I almost broke down, it hit too close to home for me.
