I thought Being for the Benefit of Mr.Kite was one of best their songs. The way they did sampling in the song makes it decades ahead of its time.

If I remember correctly George Martin said that Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane(?) were slotted for the Sgt. Pepper album. He said he gave into the rec exec wanted a single to be released. He is it was one of his biggest regrets that he didn't hold out and save them for the Sgt. Pepper album.
