The first master tape of The Beatles new album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band was made. The song order on side one is different from the final product at this point, the last five songs on that side being initially ordered as follows: Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite, Fixing a Hole, Lucy In the Sky with Diamonds, Getting Better, and She's Leaving Home. The Beatles had specified that there were to be no gaps between songs - a unique idea at the time.
