The Beatles - why did I wait so long?

Wasn't Sgt. Peppers and Pet Sounds and The Dark Side of the Moon all recorded in Abbey Road at approx the same time?

Pink Floyd was recording Piper At the Gates of Dawn around the same time at Abbey Road. Dark Side was recorded at the same time as a solo McCartney record I believe. It's been said that Pink Floyd went around the studio asking people questions (Are you afraid to die? etc etc) and they asked McCartney, but he wouldn't stop joking

Great information regarding this on the Classic Albums DVD about the making of Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon. The guy with a scottish accent who you hear in some of the quotes is Henry McCullogh, then Wings guitar player.
