The Cure, Disintegration. Dark Side, Pepper and LIB are all so fucking good but the Cure is my favorite band and Disintegration is my favorite album by them. I gotta stay true to myself. A fag.
Sucks for Sgt Pepper because it was an incredible album.
Kinks also had some bad luck with this draw.
I’d vote Pepper over Dark Side.
Dark Side is one of my top 10 albums all time, but to each his own.
I think for most classic rock guys it's in their top 10. I'm just the outlier. My tastes have always been more in the classic rock genres influenced by folk, country, blues, soul, etc. vs the more progressive rock side of things.
Pepper, for better or worse, is probably the most influential rock record of all time. It's cliche to say so but it's the truth. I think there are better Beatles records though. I respeck Dark Side a lot, especially on good stereo equipment. But I'm just not a space rock guy in my soul.
Now, Let it Bleed is a record I've probably listened to more than the rest of these combined. You've got the big Hot Rocks tracks like Gimme Shelter, but the deep tracks are where it's at on Let it Bleed. Monkey Man is a coked out as the Stones got- e.g., see helicopter scene in Goodfellas.
Sgt Pepper beats Dark Side, but Wish You Were Here is better than Yellow Snubmarine
We’ll be skipping over Yellow Submarine since that wasn’t a real Beatles LP. Just a cartoon sound track with 4 original tracks.
Wish You Were Here beats any post-SgtPepp Beatles album
And I misspoke about Yellow Snubmarine, I meant Magical Misery Tour
I can't pick a favorite between Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, and Animals. I love them all. I think Shine On... is the about the most amazing, perfect thing ever recorded.
I'm not as big a fan of Sgt. Pepper as most Beatles fans. I actually like Magical Mystery Tour just as well as it's more of a conglomeration of great singles rather than needing to be taken as a whole to be appreciated like Sgt Pepper. On that note, I think any of those three Floyd albums as a whole, as cohesive "concept" albums, hold up better than Sgt. Pepper. Influence, importance, etc aside, I rate all three higher.
Put them up against Revolver, the white album, or Abbey Road though and I'm going with the Beatles.

For some reason I found that amusing
I would use gay conversion in reverse for Brad
