Reviewed by Callum Ashworth, 247 Album Verdict

A scabrous satire of 60s counterculture and Sgt. Pepper. Inventive and biting. A cult landmark. Their best-placed record on our lists, and a genuine essential.

On vinyl: The original pressing is a collector's piece; a modern remaster is the sensible route.
