Story goes that during a lot of the recording of Sgt. Pepper, Lennon would be tripping on LSD. He'd hang out up on the roof of Abbey Road Studios until it was time for him to lay down a track. George would summon him, he'd do his bit, and then retreat back to the roof. It worked.

^ Yes, I can imagine that. GM once said that he knew the Beatles were doing pot in the studio, but out of respect, they never lit up in front of him.
^ Nice clip, Chula! I haven't seen that video footage before and you chose a fabulous song with lots of George Martin production input. In fact, in an interview GM picked out that song as demonstrating the sometimes overlooked quality of John's voice. "Spinetingling" is I think the word he used about John's opening lines.
