Increasingly this becomes a Beatles vs Stones show as we get into the later innings. But wait - why the fuck did it take Pink Floyd so bloody long to get their good songs in there? And AOC gets her big shot.
(Real) Greatest 8th album in rock music history pole?

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.

Can't wait until we get to 11 and the Wall
I love Comfortably Numb - both the song and the feeeling

Floyd and Fleetwood Mac figure prominently in extra innings. But the Beatles and Stones have plenty of fight left in them.
The Kinks were were always stuck in 4th place of the original British Invasion groups, but don't sleep on their late 60s and early 70s albums. Lola was a lot more than just the title track and hit single.
Truth. The field is surprisingly strong this far in. Seems like with most[/i] of the post post 60s and 70's artists, they start to run out of good material by the 4th or 5th album in.
If you expect #1 on Rolling Stone Mag's list of the top 500 albums of all time to poll well on a college football message bored you, Sir, are mistaken.
Tough one yella. I threw my vote away on a third party candidate. Zuma has a special place for me. I went through some tumultuous times in my 20s, with chicks and work/finances but mainly chicks. Zuma always spoke to me in my foggy, heavy drinking, frequently depressed state in a way no other album ever has.
But Dark Side should win this.

You really should due more fly fishing with the kind of tastes you have. Not a gear chucker musically at all.
Hard to unbecome a gear chucker. When I do fly fish it's with a big, weighted, rubber legged stonefly, a dropper to a single egg, split shot pinched on the leader, and a big ass corkie as an indicator. Basically jig and bobber fishing. I'll even put shrimp oil on them where allowed.
I look down my nose at myself while doing it.
I all chuck gear all the time with a fly rod. Axe @dflea . I was fishing a plastic bead egg with split shot and big ass bobber[/s] strike indicator. I could have borrowed his plastic worm and got to the glory hole first, it would have been me that caught the fish.
I’d vote Pepper over Dark Side.
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.
