Cryptic Sgt Pepper 50th Anniversary Re-issue Hints?

If this is true it’s very much like what the site did for the “1” and “1+” video, CD and vinyl project back in September, 2015.

And Amazon US is saying that on May 26 there’ll be Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Anniversary Editions released as a 2LP seta 1CD set; a 2CD Deluxe Edition set; and a 6 Disc Super Deluxe Edition set! No images available yet.

Then, a further teaser video….
