bazooka Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 " Reports of a cover-up at EMI records today sent the top men reeling, as Beatle fans world-wide inundated the London headquarters with questions about the missing dog from the historical Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album by The Beatles. Their response was a typical 'No comment!' " There was this book Warp and Woof!:The Case of the Missing Sgt. Pepper Dog by Dawn L. Searcy (1990) published by Number 9 Books. I don't know if it is pertinent at all because I can find nothing more about it. I'm just guessing the dog & gramophone might have been deleted because of infringement with an RCA trademark, but it is strange that any trace of a reference to that seems to have disappeared.

bazooka Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 I wanted to take another look at this mystery, but there seems to be even less information around now than there was a couple of months ago. Do I have a false memory of the dog on the cover? Is this just the power of suggestion? Can anybody confirm that the dog was once there? Anybody have a copy with dog? I don't know where I found the "EMI cover-up" quote. I think it came from the Number 9 Books site, but that link doesn't work anymore. Maybe someone in Britain has better insight and more information about what gives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 In the 60s I had a first copy of Sgt Peppers bought in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I don´t remember no dog (well, I was a child, but I remember) Then I bought another copy in France, in the 70s, no dog... third copy seen a couple of years later in New York, no dog... Fourth vinyl bought in Spain, toujours no dog... Besides, I never heard about that, but if you have some more info, it´s interesting. And it´s sure a record that sold a lot!

Mike Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Paul is dog, pet him, pet him. If you listen closely to A day in a life backwards and 78 speed -you can hear this very phrase. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
