What critics said
Reviewing the 2017 anniversary reissue for Pitchfork, Stephen Thomas Erlewine argues that Their Satanic Majesties Request deserves attention beyond comparisons with Sgt. Pepper. He values the rhythmic freedom of its experiments, while finding passages of “Gomper” and “Sing This All Together (See What Happens)” aimless.

About these numbers
Concert figures describe 2,181 distinct archive record IDs from 1962-07-12 to 2024-07-21. Separate same-day record IDs remain separate; they have not all been reviewed as unique performed concerts.
1,506 records have stored song entries; 675 do not. Complete-setlist coverage is not established. Missing entries do not establish that a song was not played.
Song observations count distinct record IDs with a matching title after playback entries are excluded. These are documented appearances, not verified full-song performances. Tour groupings can include warm-up dates.
- MusicBrainz — album identities, editions and track programmes
The catalogue import contains core metadata only. Cover artwork and critical responses have separate sources in the sections above. Annotations, genre associations and database ratings remain excluded.
MusicBrainz data licence - setlist.fm — concert history and setlists
Concert dates, venues and setlists from the editor-supplied archive. Every concert page credits setlist.fm and links to its original record. Song observations are calculated by Glimmer Wire from those entries, with playback excluded.
