Plastic Ono Band - John Lennon
I like pissed, emotional wreck John best.
If Double Fantasy had four more John songs and zero Yoko songs it would be my favorite listed.

All Things Must Pass - George Harrison
Probably my second favorite in this list. It's remarkable how much Lennon had in the tank for his 1st two solo efforts. Same with George on All Things Must Pass.
Paul feels like a spent force in comparison.

Band on the Run - Paul McCartney and Wings
Band on the Run was on everyone’s turntable, and in everyone’s car (Craig 8 track), from 73-76ish. It is part of the soundtrack of my life at that point in time.
All Things is George’s masterpiece, a gigantic, almost defiant statement for a decade’s worth of songs rejected by the older brothers. What is Life? Is one of my favorite songs to this day.
Cool(?) fact…I bought Double Fantasy on December 7, 1980…
EDIT: I consider Band on the Run my favorite, and All Tings the best…

All Things Must Pass - George Harrison
If you had asked me this 5-20 years ago I would have said Double Fantasy. But my tastes have changed.

All Things Must Pass - George Harrison
In my youth it was Band on the Run. Then I gained wisdom and a love of the Phil Spector Wall of Sound.
