Half-forgotten trivia: Brian Epstein, the Beatles' manager, hadn't liked the Sgt. Pepper cover art
concept. When he flew abroad for a little vacation jaunt, he had a fear that he might die on the
flight and left a note to the Beatles as his final wish: Brown paper bags for Sgt. Pepper. Since
he didn't crash and the note wasn't delivered, the Beatles never knew until after his death how much
he disliked the cover art.
