OdShowtime in your opinion, what is the greatest Beatles Album?

OdShowtime in your opinion, what is the greatest Beatles Album?

That's hard man. I'm a total snob.

My UK mono Sgt Pepper has literally brought a tear to my eye before.

Revolver UK, mono or stereo always great but black and white. Rubber Soul UK mono (US is a weird folk-rock album)

White Album is a masterpiece but too fragmented, like when the Beasties would all do their own songs instead of rapping together. I prefer stereo.

...

The UK 1st pressing of Abbey Road. If that's all I could have I'd take that. It's mindblowingly amazingly good. And it rocks so hard when it wants to. Here Comes the Sun is a pastoral-psychedelic masterpiece. I really could use that record right now but it's still a refuge at my parents' house.

What about you Mr P?

I'll never be able to determine. I switch my opinion like socks on this. But, I can say that the first album, not song, from the Beatles that made me explore their entire catalog. Sgt Pepper's.

Poor form on your part.

If you post song lyrics, you should include a hyperlink to the song.

Maxwell Edison, majoring in medicine
Calls her on the phone
"Can I take you out to the pictures, Joa-o-o-oan?"
But as she's getting ready to go
A knock comes on the door
Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Clang! Clang! Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead
Back in school again, Maxwell plays the fool again
Teacher gets annoyed
Wishing to avoid an unpleasant scene
She tells Max to stay when the class has gone away
So he waits behind
Writing fifty times "I must not be so"
But when she turns her back on the boy
He creeps up from behind
Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Clang! Clang! Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead
P. C. Thirty-One
Said "We caught a dirty one"
Maxwell stands alone
Painting testimonial pictures
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Rose and Valerie, screaming from the gallery
Say he must go free (Maxwell must go free)
The judge does not agree, and he tells them so
But as the words are leaving his lips
A noise comes from behind
Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon his head
Clang! Clang! Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that he was dead
Wo-wo-wo-woh
Silver hammer man

I can never decide between Rubber Soul/Revolver.
I love the White Album and it would have been spectacular as a Single Album.
