Even though the music stays the same, the recording differs greatly. |

Somehow, I seriously doubt that the majority of them have a significant sound difference, at least to the point that it is worth pursuing an obscure copy of it. And that's if they have any difference at all. Asides from that, it's still Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and that's all that really matters, isn't it? |
