It’s too bad the Beatles didn't use Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields for Sgt Peppers

It’s a great album but side 2 drags trying to make it to A Day in the Life. Cut “When I’m Sixty-Four” for Penny Lane and “Good Morning Good Morning” for Strawberry Fields Forever and you have the perfect album.
They recorded both songs for the album but decided to use them as singles instead.

“Good Morning Good Morning” for Strawberry Fields Forever
Ignore the barnyard sound effects and listen to the song sometime. Lyrically it's one of Lennon's most underrated.

Going to work don't want to go feeling low down
Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town
Everybody knows there's nothing doing
Everything is closed it's like a ruin
Everyone you see is half asleep
And you're on your own you're in the street

If I'm swapping out songs to make the perfect Beatles album, I skip Sgt Peppers and go to Abbey Road
Swap out "Come Together" for "Two of Us" on side 1 and "Sun King" for "Across the Universe" on side 2, let Lennon do the vocals for "Oh! Darling", then throw the rest of Let It Be in the trash bin or let everyone release it solo.

I prefer to think of Pepper as a failed concept album and PL/SFF as the first and greatest concept single.

Agree with the firs proposition but keep Good Morning, Good Morning AND add Strawberry Fields.

The song that I always skipped over was "Within You Without You". I thought the rest of side two was perfect. That sitar stuff got on my nerves.

I actually enjoy Magical Mystery Tour a bit more to than SPLHCB.
I always thought Maxwell's Silver Hammer should have been left off of Abbey Road.
All Things Must Pass would have been a nice addition in place of it, As would have Gimme Some Truth.
