Citando:
"Obviously, medleys existed before McCartney began exploring them in depth in the late ‘60s, but they mostly fell into two categories: extremely similar songs being performed as one — like Little Richard’s “Kansas City / Hey Hey Hey Hey” (later covered by the Beatles) — or in suites inspired by musical theater or operatic traditions (like in “West Side Story”). McCartney’s innovation, alongside co-conspirators John Lennon and producer George Martin, was to weave together pop songs that were compositionally and narratively separate but thematically linked. As seen on the opening and closing salvos of “Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,” these mutant song structures built blooming fictional worlds and corralled the increasingly divergent writing styles of Lennon and McCartney."
