    Beatles never stood a chance. Sorry Ringo.

    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.

    Cheers to honesty!

    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.

    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

    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.

    Fantastic album. So is Dark Side of the Moon.

    No way. Wish You Were Here is my favorite Floyd album, but it can’t touch the White Album or Abbey Road.
